Hello everyone, thank you for your visit. before I start, I just wanted to announce that I have another journal workshop coming up at Birds In The Barn in Marks Tey on June 20th starting at 10am. you can book your place here
Now! I’ve got a quickie today, inspired by the lovely Donna who loves to paint on wood.
Now this isn’t something I’ve tried a lot, so when my Hubby asked me to put two small pieces of wood into the car with the rest of the rubbish from the loft, I relocated them to studio.
The plaque was created using Fresco Acrylic paints from Paper Artsy, Prismacolor Pencils, and Colorbloom Sprays.
I’m entering this into

I coated the surface in Vintage Lace as I wanted this as the base of the face. I then covered an area where my face would be with an oval mask and sprayed Colorbloom in Cotton Candy and Pressed Metal. Once dry I painted some flowers using snowflake Fresco. I left this to dry overnight.
I then sketched out my girl and added shadows and highlights in paint and then let it dry.
Using the pencils I added more shadows and highlights and added colour to her eyes and mouth.
Turning back to the paints I finished her off.
I think she has a cartoony look but like I her anyway.
Please come back tomorrow as I have another post ready with some good news.
Take care, all you lovely Arty People and I will see you soon.
