My first mixed media project on 15 x 20 watercolor paper using watercolors, acrylics, stencils, stamps, markers, oil pastels, inktense watercolor pencils, a bic whiteout pen and whatever else came to hand.
Wanted to color block it but the blue ... oh the blue .... really BAD idea and normally I would have trashed it, but I'm working on keeping going, working through mistakes or things I don't like, so....
Added some black and white to bring out details and am pleasantly surprised. Detail shots:
Lovin' all those layers and textures!
Although I didn't post something every day this month, I did work on something creative every day. Once again this place proved invaluable in getting me jump started for the year after the holiday lull. It's such a positive, supportive group - I really appreciate all the time folks took to leave comments and encouragement. Here's to a productive, creative 2012 for all of us!
This is amazing! I would so love to do this with you, learn the gift/art of layering.
