Ok it's late, first time ever for Summer of Color but, oh well sometimes life gets in the way of things and you just have to breath!!
The colors are a soft pink and grey and I wanted it to be soft and watery. The first one I did was on a canvas and really turned out quite bright so I sat it aside and started on a journal page instead.
It has layers of water color and acrylic paint. I used some stamps with paint. I also used some water soluble crayons for the shadows but then I wanted it darker so I used charcoal pencil instead.
I used white paint for the dots around the butterflies which I used a Martha Stewart punch and an old book page for.
I cut out the word from a vellum pack and some washi tape on the sides. It's soft and watery like I wanted. Thank you all so much for your comments I do love to read them!! xoxo
On a side note I wanted to share a little artwork I did awhile back and didn't show you! I drew out the bird and feathers and the banner and then used watercolors to paint it and a stencil and acrylic paint. Hope you all had a safe and fun weekend!!
I painted the girls dress yellow and added the words with a Pitt pen and white dots with a white Gellyroll pen.
I used a plate to trace a circle around the girl and added the words and then the circles and filled them in with a white marker. I then added the rays and yellow dots with paint.
I added the yellow dots with paint on her color as well. I did use some water crayon on her face to give her more color and made a darn smudge on her forehead ! Need to clean my fingers more I guess lol! Thank you all for the comments love them all so much !
