Every cloud ...

I created this piece by laying down the background colours in acrylic paint on top of some pieces of old dictionary paper. I then sprayed around the silhouette masks with silver Glimmer Mist. Hopefully, you will be able to see a little of the sparkle. Lastly I added the script and pen marks.

Who is the real me?

A journal page mostly created with spray inks and stencils. The faces were stamped onto tissue paper and then glued down with matte medium.
