Mixed Media Art Challenge

I joined a fun scavenger hunt over at

Mixed Media Art on Ning

You had to find some things for
yourself, send some things to someone else
and a third person would send things to you.

The things to send and receive were buttons, fiber and paper. Jean sent me hand made enameled buttons, hand dyed ribbon and some very cool resin treated paper and a photo image. She sent a beautiful flower, but I ended up using a mermaid...

I had to find for myself:

Something from nature (shell, wood, botanica, etc.)

Something rusty

Something wire (a piece of rusty copper wire, chicken wire, barbed wire)

Something made of glass

Out of all this came my mermaid assemblage...
