The very talented Heather is our guest host on Mixed Media Monday this week, and she has chosen a wonderful theme - "time"! This gave me the perfect opportunity to alter a clock. I've been wanting to do this ever since seeing the clock in Kelly Rae Roberts book, Taking Flight! The first photo shows the clock, and the second one is a scan of the painting, so you can see that a little clearer (the clock was difficult to photograph because of the glass). The painting was done in water colours on water colour paper - but I have added some acrylic paint and inks and stamps to the background. I was very worried that the clock wouldn't work after I took it apart, but so far, so good!
