Assemblage Art | Crackle Head Queen | Altered Mixed Media Art

I created this whimsical assemblage piece as part of my contribution to The 100 Day Project for 2022. I used several Dollar Tree-bought items, a thrifted glass lamp shade, and a mix of art supplies from my own stash.
I cite ‪@InaSolsberyartroom‬ as an inspiration at least once in the video and encourage you to check out her channel!

Love the crackle on the dolls face and her hair oh my that was an adventure but it looks fabulous with the crown. Awesome piece thank you for sharing Hope

[@CraftyHope]

That whole head was an adventure indeed. I didn't have any kind of vision for her so I just tried different things until she worked. And, I'm so glad I did! The result was better than I would have dreamed. I appreciate you sticking through the struggle.

I snickered, I laughed..you must have been hell on your dolls when you were a wee one.🤠 Loved the end product. I loved it so much I am gonna recreate it.with stuff I have. Thanks Hope😎

[@CraftyHope]

I'm so glad I amuse! LOL!! I actually was pretty kind to my dolls. My sister, though, she cut their hair, scribbled their eyes out with markers, pulled their arms and legs off - I suppose maybe she was the real artist! I do hope you'll share what you make (and tag me please so I don't miss it!!) Have fun!

[@bettyolis6228]

Lol, love it. All the changes and I laughed at each one. Absolutely love to see you experimenting with all these mediums. Thanks Hope! When someone says it is what it is .... I say, until it's not, lol. Love the wire and how his turned out.

[@CraftyHope]

Yay! Thank you, Betty! Yes, this one was definitely an experiment. What a great response to that "conversation ender"!!

[@cathygreear2598]

What an amazing outcome! Love it!

[@CraftyHope]

Thanks, Cathy! I'm thrilled with this one. I really love the way the wire and her crackle face came together. I had no idea where this one would take me when I started. I just wanted to combine those three items. What a relief that it worked out so well.

It was a long video but it was worth watching every second.And this came out amazing I got so much inspiration. ☺️

[@CraftyHope]

Yeah, these assemblage videos are a little longer than my art journal videos to be sure. There were so many little steps that went into this one. I tried to cut it down as best as I could, but sometimes it's hard to know just what everyone wants to see. I'm so pleased that it inspired you, though. Thanks for sticking in there!
