http://www.enchantedgarret.com/gallery Under the name Briarwood Studio, I create miniatures and Mixed Media art: a little bit stylized, a whole lot whimsical. I hope you enjoy viewing my creations.  ~ Cia Williford en-US Fri, 18 May 2012 21:27:27 -0400 Fri, 18 May 2012 21:27:27 -0400 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/tech/rss ZenPhoto RSS Generator Mixed media on wood.]]> Mixed Media Fri, 02 Sep 2011 23:05:05 -0400 Mary Magdalene, for some, the embodiment of the feminine aspect of the divine. This painting was "inspired", I believe, by my mother, whom I lost in December of 2008.

(One of my very favorite Internet art sites.) Only...I cheated. *grin* The challenge was to use only a very limited palette of colors (black, white, flesh tone, pink), which intrigued me. However, I did not succeed, lol. I added some celery green and a tiny bit of yellow/gold.So, yeah, I'm terrible at following directions. But I still got a nice painting out of it!]]> Mixed Media Sat, 20 Aug 2011 13:55:17 -0400 This mixed media painting is actually going to be the cover on a wooden box. I painted directly on the wood and still have a small bit of detailing yet to do.]]> Mixed Media Sun, 07 Aug 2011 00:49:49 -0400 Mixed media collage on paper, mounted on wood.
