Megs "Time for a Cuppa"

Time for a cuppa

Sharon's lovely Art Journal arrived and thought who would love a cuppa

Well, of course, the Queen came to mind and so did a Dina Wakley Stencil

So started off using Gesso and Texture paste to lay down some background texture, Used Colour Blast  Colour paste for the Queens face in Snow White so she Glimmers. Then added some layers of rice paper 

                                            

Decided to find a Cup regally fit for the Queen. And sticky taped a piece of old fashioned Bake paper onto a piece of thick copy paper and printed my own homemade rice paper.

Then decided she needed a crown and a lovely quote.

Then shaded around the page with a mix of Golds and Black to add depth 

Don't usually go down the grunge path of dark colours.  We tend to be overcritical of our work so decided to stop and leave the page where she is

Hope you enjoy her
