here my AJ page for today using Hedwig and a coloured version of Hannah

The background is another Gelli plate print using Deco Arts americana acrylics (colours: sea breeze, calypso blue, lavender).

The bat is a Smeared Ink digi.

a close look at Hedwig

 

and Hannah 

 

and my paint project: wooden letters spelling BOO (what else).

 

Products used:

Deco Arts American acrylics  (spiced pumpkin, sour apple, lavender)

Gesso

Weathered wood crackle medium

matte varnish

triple thick gloss glaze

 

First gessoed the letters, then painted them orange,

when paint was dry I added the weathered wood, let dry and painted the green.

Used matte varnish to protect the crackle . Let the lavender drip from the top of the letters. Finished with a layer of triple thick gloss.

 

see you tomorrow for day 19

Can you stand on your head part 3

I had coloured the cool stand on his head Ches (a Rick St. Dennis digi)  and then had a little experiment with him. Because my "online art teacher" had shown me a very cool idea.

It didn't work out the way it should have.....The idea was very awesome but I just couldn't make it work the right way. .....well at least I tried .....just need al LOT more practice.......LOL.

anyway I now had a failed experimental coloured image that I didn't want to throw away, so made a tag with it and hope you will still like it a little bit......

 

B.t.w., the senti didn't turn out so well either, didn't have a white pen that was able to write on the tag so I used a glaze pen, which will dry white but has clear ink when you write, so you can't see what you are writing......

 

can you stand on your head part 2

the answer is yes...........LOL

 

 

this is another Cheshire from Rick St. Dennis MFA  you can find him here

now thinking what to make
