Keys, buttons and ...chickens!

 

I promised to show you the finished hearts canvas that I posted about a little while ago.

It's going to be on display in a farm house, so I was going for a balance between pretty and rustic!

I took on board a couple of the suggestions that were kindly made in response to my last post.  

If you look closely you'll see some small pieces of rustic fabric as suggested by Tammy, and Luthien's suggestions of mesh (well, mesh-like fabric) and some lovely bits of chipped paint have also sneaked in! Thank you ladies :)

Also included are a drawing of a chicken (my buyer suggested that and I rather like it!), a real feather, and of course I can't seem to finish a mixed media painting without adding a key and button or two!
