Spool and Spoon: Snow Globe Shadow Box Tutorial. So far, this is definitely my favorite tutorial of The 25 Projects of Christmas. Maybe it's not just a coincidence that these Snow Globe Shadow Boxes happen to be my lucky number eight! It's vintage-y, pretty, wintery, and cute. Really, there is nothing you won't love about these. If you're around these parts often, you probably realized that I prefer very traditional and rustic decor at Christmastime and these are not that at all. Boxes with clear/glass lid (mine are plain jewelry boxes from A.C. White acrylic paint Tacky glue Paint brushes Scrapbook paper in pattern/color of your choice Paper cutter / scissors Ruler Clear glitter Epsom salts Small amount of poly-fill Hot glue gun & glue Fake snow Miniature figures (animals, snowman, buildings, etc) Plastic snowflakes Sisal trees in various shapes/colors Go, go, go!

André Devambez Concert Colonne. Edgar Degas La classe de danse. Tamara de Lempicka. Tamara de Lempicka, "Autoportrait à la voiture verte", 1929huile sur toile, 81 x 55 cm Art Déco Un autoportrait Au volant d'une voiture, cette jeune femme se distingue de la condition féminine du début de siècle et montre ainsi son indépendance Le cadrage Très serré, ne montre que l'essentiel L'organisation Centre d'intérêt décentré, complètement en haut à droite. Le mouvement Le long de la diagonale, évoque la vitesse et le mouvement La couleur Deux espaces très contrastés, vert pour le premier plan, dans divers tons ocre pour le second. Gestualité Très maîtrisée : traces de pinceaux presque invisibles, dégradés soignés. Tamara de Lempicka. 1927 - 1929. Oil on canvas 100 x 65 cm (39 3/8 x 25 5/8 in) LEMPICKA. (bottom right) (La communiante *) The medal Lempicka won at the 1929 International Exhibition of Poznan with her first openly religious painting - this portrait of Kizette - meant a great deal to the artist.

Appearing for the first time as well, the white dove would reoccur regularly in her oeuvre, just as would the arums boasting immaculate corollas.
