what's up roc

i started working on this arch a few days ago but i had to let it sit for awhile until i could figure out what the finishing touches should be. as always, i rarely know what i will create when i sit down at my art desk. i will say that i usually have one thing i want to work with, whether it is a collage image or a new rubber stamp, and then the project starts to grow from that initial inspiration. i had received a new collage sticker sheet from alpha stamps and one of the parrots reminded me of an art friend, tanya's parrot, pudge. as soon as i saw this parrot i knew i wanted to create an arch for her in honor of her beloved bird for a private swap we are doing. i am hoping that she will like it when she sees it.
