Inspiration Ave Challenge



Good Evening,

Our theme for this week was a sad woman with flowers in her hair. I am the first to admit I can't draw a face at all, it is on my to do list to practice. But for this challenge I got a face out of "La Dee Da " fashion sketchbook and cut around the hairline. So to start my page I used a background scrapbook page glued, then I glued the face on. I colored her hair with charcoal blending when I was finished. I used stencils for the big flowers in her hair and stickers for the smaller ones. I redid her eyes to make her look sad and added the teardrop with colored pencil. I drew in a nose which didn't come out exactly the way I wanted it, but okay. The lips are done in colored pencil. The quote is done with stick ons and of course the page is sealed with glossy spray Mod-Podge. I was satisfied when I was done, but need to work on drawing faces. Have a great weekend.

  4. Found you from Creative Tuesdays. She's very pretty, and her eyes are so expressive. She looks rather like an Anime character. Beautiful work!
