Mixed Media Monday - Playtime!

Diane asked us to play with our art this week, explore something new, etc. I took her at her word! This is one of my zentangle sketches, which I scanned in and embellished with a bit of color. I hadn't tried that before. Thanks, Diane. It's fun to simply play around and explore different ideas. I had a great time!

  10. Stunning Bev, now is that real doodling or digi? Like always my mouth hangs open.

    Thanks by the way for your kind comment on my piece. Everything apart from the girl's dress was acrylic paint. The dress I cut from some scrapbook paper. Oh and there were a few collaged bits which I put on while in the process of painting. (Not the most clever, it's better to either do the one and then the other...)
