Chinoiserie is a French word meaning "in the Chinese Style" - (more information here)
I find I am really attracted to this style, perhaps because I would love to decorate my Victorian home in authentic style, and this was popular in Victorian Europe...also because the "mix", much like "mixed media" really appeals to my artistic nature {smiling}...
The full piece:
I really like the quote by Henry Ward Beecher - and as I was working on the quote, this is what the Holy Spirit, the Spirit of Creation, was weaving in my mind:
In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. (Genesis 1:1) By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God...(Hebrews 1:11 ESV) For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes, His eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly seen, being understood through what has been
made. (Romans 1:20)And we are made in His image...
So sweet, that the quote really reflects that God is evident in His Creation - and we are the crown of the Creation...
I made this postcard to help explain the development of the character:
This little postcard to explain the character's significance will accompany each print... |
