Just found this painting I did a while back amongst a pile of background papers. I love drawing flowers and leaves, should do it more often really. This was done over layers of brayered acrylics which make an interesting base to work on top of and I used gold ink sprayed over some of the flowers so it gleams. Think I might make prints available of this soon.
Another page which is the other side of the spread from the previous post and carries on the sunflower theme I'm playing with. This journal I'm working in at the minute has 8"x8" pages but I'm thinking of making one with a larger area to mess about on.
In case you're interested here's what I used for this page:
Materials
- vintage book pages and sheet music
- commercial scrapbook papers
- acrylic paints - Liquitex and Golden
- various stencils
- Faber drawing pens
- Hybrid gel pen
- bee stamp with Stazon ink
I recently started working in my journal again, trying some new stuff out. My fave find recently has been a white Hybrid gel pen which actually seems to work over other media - I do not have a good track record with white pens but am enjoying this one so far!
Another 6-inch canvas today from the group I showed you in the previous post. This one got worked and reworked as I went through the hating-how-it's-going stage which always happens before it turns a corner and starts to look like something.
It's available here, along with a few more views of it.
SOLD
I only realised today that I seem to be a bit obssessed with red lately, or more precisely those lovely autumnal shades of raspberry, plum and blackberry. Everything I've made over the last week or two has been red, just look!
