Mixed Media Abstract Art, Textured Art, Contemporary Painting “STUDY IN TEAL AND WHITE” by Florida Contemporary Artist Mary Ann Ziegler

 



This piece started out to test how I could build layers using Powertex.... so the layers kept building and building- when the teal was added it gave the piece even more dimension. It allowed a focal point to be built and highlighted where the main focus of the eye was.
