29 Faces | 22 | 23 | BOD {Week 22}

Lot's more to share.  It's been a nice peaceful weekend here.  No kids, just quiet time with myself to reflect.  (And clean.)  I've finished two more portraits and last week's Book of Days spread is ready to share.  Here we go.

29 Faces | 22 | I took this image from a nail advertisement.  I loved the contrast of the black and white.  When I was done drawing her though, I though she needed some color.  So I built a background around her.  Supplies used: Portrait oil pastels, spray paint by Tulip, and a F pencil and a 8B pencil.

29 Faces | 23 | This was just a simple sketch from an ad, and then I added watercolor in a messy sort of fashion, just to get the impression of her.  Supplies used: washi tape, watercolor, inktense pencils, white acrylic paint, hb pencil, and white gel pen.

BOD | Week 22 | I started this on Monday while in bed (not feeling well).  I took only my Promarkers, black pen, white gel pen, and a pencil with me.  The rest of it was done throughout the week with lots of acrylic stamps by Tim Holtz.
