And here’s a post about last week, just to make sure that I don’t forget again 🙂

I managed to finish one of the lessons on Life Book 2015 which I missed some weeks ago. It was about creating a dream catcher using paper doily and paper “feathers”. Here is how it looks:

I made the background first glueing a napkin and using pink and gold acrylics over it. I also used some glitter glue in copper color. Then I glued the paper doily and it got pretty lost, because it was thin and you could see the background through it. In order to bring it back to life, I went over it with the white acrylic, which helped. Then I made the feathers from paper and coloured them with gelatos. I went around with a pitt marker to make shadows. Here are some details:

The next thing I did over the weekend was a bonus lesson from Tamara representing my inner art guardian… It was a good chance to practice painting face again and I REALLY LOVED it. I did the drawing first and then painted the girl and after that the background. I am really pleased with the face, but the wing was a bit of a challenge really 🙂

I also carved my first stamp this weekend, but I forgot to take a photo. It was a nice experience and I will be doing more that’s sure. I just need to get hold of some Lino sheets…
