Hello Bloggy Peeps,
This month in our Life Book adventure has been all about light and dark. The lesson for Week 28 was with the wonderful Tamara Laporte, creator of Life Book, and it was called Embracing All of You. Tam encouraged us to work with a whole figure this time, rather than just a face as we have before.
Here's how mine turned out ...
We started by using a gelli plate to create a grungy background, masking off the silhouette of a figure, then used torn paper masks and gesso to make the shapes of trees. After that, various media came into play to add shadows, highlights and extra detail - I used Inktense pencils, Prismacolour pencils, Pitt Pens, Posca Pens, Neocolour II crayons and Golden Fluid Acrylic paints.
And what a lovely messy time I had. Need to go clean my room now .....
Thanks for visiting me today, see you again soon :o)
