"Robins Nest" Contemporary Abstract Painting By Donna Holdsworth

This painting is done on 14x11 textured stretched canvas.  Multiple acrylic glazes (I stopped counting after 7!) and washes add depth. For the robin egg I used egg shell, gel and gloss medium.  I tried to use string gel for the nest, but that was a fiasco so I used gel instead!  Spring is in the air!  Visit my BLOG:  Donna Holdsworth Contemporary Art.  Thank you!

Love this, Donna! I'm currently struggling with finding a direction on a mixed media piece I'm trying to do, so seeing this was really refreshing.
