Lost in a Forest Day 22

Day 22  30 in 30

Mixed media on watercolor paper. Continuation of the main theme of "jail" from a previous post.

 On this, I put down fence marks with my wax crayons and added brayer marks! Some collaging with torn tissue paper prints and doodling with Inktense pencils.

My Haunted House Day 21


Day 21  30 in 30

Mixed media on watercolor paper. Continuation of the main theme of "jail" from a previous post.

The first layer where brayer marks of color. Added a tissue paper Gelli print. Found 2 tutorials on printing on tissue paper; Carolyn Dube and Gelli Arts so now I have a bunch of tissue paper prints.
The one here reminded me of a landscape so I pasted it whole. Added marks with my Inktense pencils and what do you know a haunted house appeared, thought at first a jailhouse. Whatever!
I am really having fun with this method of exploration and doodling.

Look who took over my "studio divan"
Looking closely at the open page looks like a cat!
Pity I didn't see that before I started doodling!

Dancing Out Day 20

Day 20  30 in 30

Mixed media on watercolor paper. Continuation of the main theme of "jail" from a previous post.

Used leftover fence pieces and started drawing in the figures, using that term loosely, Felt the pieces were a bit too dark so decided to brayer some layers on top. I think I did 3. Then went back with inktense pencils to bring back the figures. Funny how that face jumped in there!
