BLISS Melange Challenge Entry


this weeks challenge word over on the Melange team blog is 'bliss" My entry is encaustic paint, an image transfer, collage paper , ink, stamps on a canvas panel.

My inspiration was my own dream life as I have always had very vivid and lucid dreams. Often I am reluctant to awaken as the dream state is often such a pleasurable experience.
