My " take " on the word is a little unusual ... " Inspiration " for this collage came from a big spider web I spotted right outside my window one recent morning ... I was at that time looking through an antique nursery rhyme book and came upon the Little Miss Muffett rhyme ... well one thing lead to another and VIOLA ... I have titled it " Little Ms. Muffett Ain't Afraid Of Spiders !
I wove the thread web onto the canvas board that I had painted and texturized with paper , paint and glitter . I added pictures from old postcards , bits of antique lace and an old earring that I cut apart . I finished it with a sprinkling of very old mica flakes !

ReplyDeleteawesome piece....how very cool :)
ReplyDeleteIsn't it weird what does inspire us sometimes! I find spider webs extremely intricate and fascinating, not the critters, themselves, but there is a lot of mystery and detail in the webs! Great piece, Janet!
ReplyDeleteMy goodness, this is incredible! I love this, all of it, oh so clever of you. I am not scared of this lovely spider....
