Pretty much as it says although I used magazine pages rather than painted pages. Quite like the result…..
Mixed Media Morsels 1 – Cling film
Finally have begun Cat Hands series of MMM’s. Must admit my first 2 attemps with the clingfilm were pretty much a disaster. The clingfilm stuck to the paint and I couldn’t seperate the film from the paper and ended up ripping the background off. Finally had another go with different clingfilm and thinner paint and yeh! it worked!
Spot the mistake where I picked up the flower punch instead of the corner punch!
Fun on Good Friday…….
More shapes torn from the Unwasted Paint Composition Book! Just got this superb Dina Wakely tourquoise paint so I just had to use it and the rest of the page evolved around it – I love circles!
The Eyes Have it!
Bits cut from my ‘Unwasted Paint Composition Book’ – an idea from Cat Hand to use up leftover paint. Shapes were cut from the page (the 2 at the top and 3 at the bottom) and glued on and the page sort of developed from there – goodness knows where the eyes came from!
Mission Inspiration March
Finally got March Mission done! Was fun to do, not so sure about the gold but it’s sort of traditional around the Buddha I think.
Oh dear!
Really, really not sure about this one. I found some gorgeous dark blue napkins with lovely geraniums and thought they would make a lovely page. Hmm, not me I’m thinking! Maybe the last minute white paint splatters helped a bit! Just all seemed a bit dark.
Not sure about this!
These flowers have been all sorts of colours! I just couldn’t seem to get it right but it’s done. Another Mimi Bondi inspired tutorial.
Trial and Error!
An experiment in making a background and then drawaing on shapes and blocking out the background with a glaze mixed with white acrylic. I think maybe I blocked out the background just a little too much but it was fun to do!
Mimi Bond inspired!
I love the Mimi’s style! Had to have a go after watching her tutorial. At the end I thought my version was a little too twee for me so I sort of grundged it up a bit – and then I was happy! Thankyou Mimi!
Frinton Beach
Think I have caught up with my posts now, did this one today after a lovely walk along the beach. It all started off really calmly with lines of sea and sand and sky and then I hated it so got busy with the gesso! Plus acrylic paints, all applied with fingers and then some doodling. Also doodling using my lovely new Pentel brush pen! Hopefully it’s slightly recognisable as Frinton beach!
