Flower Collage with Watercolor Effects

The November 20th Lemont Artists Guild meeting, will begin at 7 PM at the Homer Township Public Library, 14320 W 151st St, Homer Glen, IL. Elizabeth Waddington will have you thinking “outside the box” as she demonstrates Brusho crystal color pigments and art tissue. She will have examples that show the progression of this amazing collage process using watercolor effects. She lives, gardens, and paints in McHenry, IL where her garden "never fails to amaze her with surprises like a hidden blossom, a posed praying mantis or a plant thought dead comes back to life." She is very dedicated to the naturalness of her subject matter, she has grown every flower she has painted and admires everything about them including their shape, luminescence and color in which she hopes she captures their soft aura and sprightly compositions. She majored in art at the University of Illinois, and has worked at Crate and Barrel doing store design and window displays for ten years. She exhibits her artwork at many art and garden fairs and festivals throughout the summer. Visit her website at ewaddington1.wixsite.com/lizpaints
