Medieval angel inspired by a tiny photo
in an old book, of an illuminated parchment.
Felt pen, watercolor and white gel pen.
My art work is done over reproduction images
of vintage perfume labels, thus the words
peeking through the watercolor...
Above, journal page using a color copy of
a face that I drew myself. The large flower
on her head is a sticker intended for scrapbooking. I
outlined the shapes within the flower in pen to
make the page cohesive with my additional
drawings, using felt pen and watercolor.
Scrapbook paper collage, above.
Pen and watercolor...how do
you find the time for everything
you want to do?
