And here is a bio to tell you a little about her.
Deidre Mosher Bio Wildy Whimsical and Seriously Sassy Art is definitely a trademark of Deidre Mosher.
I have been in the business of art for over 25+ years. Starting out as a fashion illustrator, moving into Art Direction, where I did everything from print to TV...and eventually I found my way back to illustration. My art is just plain fun and my love of color is clearly evident in the designs I create. I'm currently licensed with a variety of companies...my designs are used on craft products, greeting cards/paper products, kitchenware, business products and such.
I am first and foremost an...Illustrator and Designer. I am inspired by seriously sassy & bold colors, but also love the 'wow factor' of classic black and white designs. I'm crazy for stripes and dots, and they are a repeated theme in my work.
As an Illustrator, I work in many mediums and styles, ranging from the line art to pastels...having fun adapting them to the latest project. I am inspired by some my favorite artists ...Matisse's use of bold color, Klimt's knowledge of figures and lavish attention to detail, and Gauguin's wild approach to his subjects. They are all so 'awe inspiring'! I'm happiest when I am in my studio and starting a new project...making a mess, experimenting...and even throwing paint.
Any day in the studio is a great day!
I usually get an idea when I least expect it...so when the 'light bulb' goes off...I sketch and sketch and sketch...(hence the reason I buy tracing paper in bulk). I always begin with a pencil and paper, and it evolves from there. My favorite part of the process?? EVERYTHING...from beginning to end.

Image and Sentiment by Deidre Mosher
Nancy,
ReplyDeleteGreat card, I just love this image it brings back so many great memories. I like how you sponged around the card or is it pastels any way I like the look. Hugs, Heide
Yes, life definitely is an adventure! And what a fabulous and classy card you've created Nancy! Love your image, colors and sponging. Perfection!

Nancy, I love the turqouise and green as I probably wouldn't have come up with that one but it look fabulous together. I love your sponging too! It gives a nice airy look to your card! Wish I looked that cute riding my bike! I realized this morning when I got on my blog that it was still in the rough! Too much happening lately, I guess! Have a great day!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Judi
Nancy I love your green and turquoise. Your coloring is always so perfect. I love the sponging and the airy feel it give to your card. Yup Judi text and said no post to me at 11:00.I told her not to worry I may just add it in the morning or stay up and do it then she forgot to finish hers :) Have a sweet day!!! HUGS Arlana
ReplyDeleteI was about to say that you used one of my favorite images, but then all of them are! The colors you used on this are terrific and it is one fabulous creation!
ReplyDeletePeace & Luv,

Hi there....your card is so fresh! I feel as if I am in the picture when I look at it. Your coloring and the sponging is perfect. Beautiful job!

Wow Nancy this image looks amazing now it's coloured up I love it, it feels so long ago since I was ago in Paris in 1990 oh 22 years ago in June isn't that sad it feels so long ago. Love your colours such a pretty card.
