Watercolor is my passion. After teaching art in the public schools for 40 + years I now have time to create art for myself. I am a watercolorist who sometimes likes to work in mixed media as well. My journey in art began when I was a small child and continues to this day. Barbara Hart Sailor

Village Five: The Tangled Forest
Well...every village needs a forest nearby and that is the case with the Tangled Village. This piece of Zentangled Inspired Art is a mixed media creation of black construction paper, prismacolor colored pencils, illustration board,white drawing paper, and Micron-Pigma waterproof drawing pencils.
The trees were tangled into designs with white prismacolor color pencil on black construction paper and then cut out. The illustration board was shaded into sky and snow with colored pencils and the trees were then glued down on top. The branches were drawn with the Micron-Pigma black drawing pen and the cardinals were drawn on printer paper with colored pencils and then cut out and glued onto the composition.
This piece is 12 1/2 x 7 1/2 inches in size.
