For any of you who are interested in how it was constucted; first I covered it in Gesso, layered napkin waste and book pages. Painted in various shades of blue (although you cannot see this in the photo) acrylics. Applied Moulding Paste over stencil and painted with Gold acrylic. I drew and painted the girl on heavy duty watercolour paper, using acrylics. The swirls are diecuts by Tim Holtz and the words are from Creative Expressions, plus flowers and cute buttons. Think thats it.........................phew
I have new paintings Modiglianai style on my other blog today 'Adventures into Art' so if you would like to visit you are most welcome.
Wishing you all a terrific weekend and take care of yourselves, Hugs Annette x
