7 More Faces!


The Four Ladies

I made this one to show symmetry in a piece and got the idea of putting the grid like this from Dina Wakley's Art Journal Freedom book. I tried to make the girls all have different skin color, but I think I did the water color too light.  Next time!

Toil Toil, Boil, & Bubble

Made this one last night and was inspired from the witches in Macbeth. I did make them a little prettier than they were described though!  Also got the layout idea from Dina Wakley's book as well - that odd numbered items grab the eye a bit better.

Frida Kahlo

 

I was inspired to make this piece from this lovely blog, Art Journal Journey:  http://art-journal-journey.blogspot.com/2014/08/082014-frida-kahlo.html  They post monthly challenges, and I thought I would give it a try!

The prompt for August was Frida Kahlo and instead of drawing her, I decided to pick a quote from her.  I did not realize how many wonderful sayings she had!

Background was made with the Gelli Pad. Doodles with gel pens, microns, and Sharpies.
