Here we are. We made it. The last day! Whew has this month flown by. We had some amazing pieces, and learned a ton of new techniques. I hope that you had as much fun doing, and watching Abstract April as I did, and I can't wait to see what our next project is going to be. So stay tuned!

For today's prompt, "Stream", I wanted to try and incorporate a lot of these new techniques into the piece. So this has a LOT of layering, and collage elements in more than one layer. Multiple paint layers. All of this to add depth and interest to the painting. And I was FINALLY able to find a place for my awesome dragonfly, that I have been attempting to use since my February art journal pages. I am so happy with the depth and layers of this painting, all of the different color tones and textures.
