Our prompt this week was to do a page of journalling, then paint over it, just leaving one word visible. So to start with I stuck in these printed journalling tickets. I then wrote all over the page.
Of course I won't show what I wrote, but this is the next stage. I painted over the whole page leaving just these few words free.
Well that looked pretty boring, so I added a few more layers of paint, dry brushing and stencilling.
...and that was ok, but it still needed more.. So I laid some leaf shaped masks over the words and then painted the rest of the page white.
I was liking it now, but it needed doodling. So I added the doodled, stripey border around each leaf.
But of course I now had white spaces, so I filled those with quick doodles of flowers and then painted them.
...and now it's all BAM! in your face lol so I am calling it done.

ReplyDeleteSO many layers, but what a wonderful end result - love the flowers and doodling, Darcy.
ReplyDeleteReally like how your page evolved the colours you chose for your flowers makes them pop against the more subtle colours. Great doodling too.
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness me - this is just amazing. You manage to put so many layers on and created so much detail. I sooooooo wish I had the talent for that - my efforts end up looking like mud!
