Welcome to my blog - I am a mixed media artist mainly working in acrylic paint, and adding paper, inks, glitter, impasto, sand, beads, pastels and whatever takes my fancy! I also create watercolour and ink illustrations, which can be bought unframed, and are also made into greeting cards. I take commissions, if you want something that may have already sold, or you would like something original or in another size or colour.

New Mixed media pieces....
Good evening everyone!
Well I've been pretty busy with commission work lately, but managed to paint some of these pieces in between. They all still have a meadow theme, but this time I put them in a night time theme with a moon and sillouette shape ie. animal. I really enjoyed making all these pieces, and have heaps of ideas for some others. These are all 12 x 16 inch except for the square one which is a deep canvas
12 x 12 inch. They start at $85 so if you are interested, you can email me for other details on juliemryder01@gmail.com

From beginning to end.....
Good evening everyone!!
I thought I would post some progress pics of one of my paintings I started a couple of days ago and was mostly able to finish it off today (except for the varnish). I just love these colours of rich aubergine, magenta and lilac!!
Below:
Here I have added some background flowers/trees/greenery....at this point I am really happy with how it is going
Below:
The finished painting!! I have titled it 'Into The Night"...I have used acrylic paint, glitter glue and metallic acrylic paint. It measures 24 x 30 inches.
The glitter glue does not really show up in photo's, but it adds a lovely sparkle to the painting when the light hits the painting. Makes it look really pretty!!

New mixed media works....
Good evening everyone....
Today I was able to get a good days painting in and I finished off these two mixed media paintings. They both had similar colour schemes with a background base of text papers. I loved adding in the stencilled deer and the butterflies! I have used text papers, acrylic paints, impasto, glitter glue and papers.
