Play - an art journal page

I had fun creating this page, using spray paints, stencil, texture paste and various tapes. Oh, and some mica chips too!

Mail Art

I created this mail art for my sister. It was a cardboard envelope upon which I painted, stamped and drew. The strips of paper come from a print I made using my Gelli Plate.

29 Faces

Day 4

Welcome to the Mad House!

Here are two digital pieces I created recently. You can tell that I wasn't feeling too good when I made the first one! I'm better now.

29 Faces

Here's my second face for 29 Faces (click here to go to the website).  I don't like her as much as the one I created yesterday, but I'm quite please with the proportions.

Wall Plaque

This started out as a 6 x 6 inch plain piece of wood. I covered it in white gesso and then added the various colours of acrylic paint. I added the paint by stamping it onto the wood using an acrylic block, a technique I picked up from Wendy Vecchi. I then added the red stripes of acrylic paint using the edge of an old credit card. I stamped the butterflies quotes and swirls to finish it.

29 Faces

I have decided to join the 29 Faces challenge. I'm not sure I'll be able to keep up, but I won't know unless I try. So here is my first one.
