"LEAF DANCE" 12040, mixed media collaged aspen leaves © Carol Nelson Fine Art

These leaves are made from Viva paper towels.  The towel has a texture to it that you can see in the actual painting, but doesn't show very well in this photo.

The paper towels started out as my brush cleaner.  I noticed what great color they had, so I decided to recycle the towel as leaves in a painting.

How very green of me!

All That Jazz

This is another of my mini abstracts featuring a section of a foam plate palette remnant.   Since the central square is color left on my palette, it often leads to unusual color combinations.

There's a touch of pink that is a mystery because I don't know where it came from.  I am not a fan of pink, but it works in this composition.
