"Miro was among the first artists to develop automatic drawing as a way to undo previous established techniques in painting..represented the beginning of surrealism"
Ballerina II by Miro (1893-1983)
Over at UK Stampers the quote challenge this week is "you only live once make it count". I have incorporated this quote in a Miro influenced shrine tag. The painting I was looking at was Ballerina II by Miro and I love the simple colours and use of line on it...be sure to check out the Miro prompts over at Milliande. The challenge over at Alter it monthly is shrines so I have used some of my invoke stamps underneath a shrine I made out of clay the other week.
Google have launched an Art Project site this week which allows you to view art in galleries all over the world..so click on the coloured words to check that out.

Such a great expression of this challenge. I love it.
I recognized that shrine lol - and I have just posted my alteritmonthly shrine -
I love what you've done with yours
welcome back Lorrain. I love your tag. the Miro influence is very strong and the addition of the shrine in the corner seems to go very well with the miro background. Thank you so much for joining us again :)
Thank you for coming by my blog! Always so nice to have you visit!
Shrines have been on my mind lately, tooo...hmmmm :)
So many challenges! I love your new 'Miro', that floating heart.
Great tag shrine, or is it shrine tag?!
I didn't know about Miro so I find that really interesting.

The shrine is fabulous and what a great idea to put it together with Miro on a tag. Cheers!
Very creative piece. I love the Miro influence to it.
Love that Miro style- great way to do the shrine!
Really love that shrine....such great colours and composition. You're definitely rising to those challenges Lorraine!
I learnt so much from your post - I hadn't even heard of Miro so thanks for all the information - and your piece is lovely
