…makes perfect sense to me! It’s my way of combining lovely images from the past, into modern digital art. I am so happy to be offering more of my digital collages in my Etsy shop. These are a few of my favorites…a bit dreamy, elegant, and a little romantic.
In a few of these images, such as the one titled, The Dreamer, I was able to incorporate some of my own photography…such as the lovely niche found in an ancient wall of Pompeii. I love how those old stones give the digital art such texture…places for saturated color to really make an impression.
As you might guess, I have a great love for digital art. I love composing it, playing with it, layering images upon images, colors upon colors, to see what surprises they yield. And almost always, I am surprised, and grateful…because technology really works in harmony with my love for all things vintage.

I’ve been working in “small mode” for a while now, in my art. Little game piece pendants and mini canvas art is fun to make…but I have to tell you, working in a larger format for my latest mixed media painting…was VERY nice!
“In Love” is the name of my newest artwork. It is created on an 11 x 14 inch canvas board, and includes a mixture of all things I love…acrylic paint, papers, vintage text, and a bit of handwritten thoughts as well. I thoroughly enjoyed working on this painting, and I love the peaceful quality of her face…serene, contemplative, and maybe even a little mysterious…a modern day Mona Lisa smile.
“In Love” is now available in my Etsy shop.
If you have any questions about this artwork, or any of my pieces, please feel free to email me at ArtcyLucy@aol.com. I welcome questions, comments, ideas, and even suggestions!

Sometimes, it is fun to work in small format…art that you can hold in your hand, or tuck on the small shelf, or to wrap in a small box for a friend. There is just something too cute…about miniature art.
I’ve loved drawing faces since I was a kid, but this year especially, I have enjoyed painting mixed media face portraits. And I am very pleased to be able to share this series of 6 mini canvases in my Etsy shop!
These little mixed media collages have a little of everything on their small 3 x 3 inch surface…from pencil, pens, markers, paints, and collage elements. They are all in mauve and rose hues, perfect for Autumn. And they each have their own little word…an endearing quality, attached to them. They would looked perfect on a tiny easel, in a little frame, or hung on the wall, as is. The sides of the canvas are painted, so there is no need for a frame, unless you wanted one.
Isn’t there room for a little more “Lovely” …”Beautiful”… “Happiness”… in your life?
