Patterns

Another page in my PaperArtsy junk journal, this one is all about patterns. For this page I have drawn and coloured a Mandala. 

First with pencil and a compass.. 

Going over the lines with a medium grey fineliner. 

Starting to colour with Prisma pencils

More colouring..

Adding in more colours, plus shading with darker pencils. 

Once I had finished colouring I added Infusions tot he outside edges

Not sure I liked it, the outer edges looked  a bit grungy.

So I used white paint to go over the Infusions, as they are water reactive they merged with the paint and created a pleasant pale green background. 

I then added the black stripes. 

I really love this page.
