Paint Party Friday

Hello to all fellow 'paint party goers'

Those of  you who are regular visitors may remember this WIP


The background was made up of layers of painted papers, citra solv papers and stamped tissue paper. I liked the back ground but I was unsure that the figure was going to fit in so I put it aside and worked on some other projects.

However, I am happy with the final result.





 I am still trying to come up with a title, though.

The light wasn't very good so the colour's are not as good as in real life. Her face is paler than the original.

Just looking at these pics,though, I think I need to add something to the waistline. It's funny how you see things differently when they are photographed. That is something I do all the way through the process of my work. It really helps me with the composition.

Thanks for visiting. x

    What a great finish to your collage! I love her skirt. I wouldn't add anything to the waistline because it looks great to me.

    I love how hooped her skirt looks - and the music on it!! I agree about a photograph -it always helps me see my art differently... it points out the need for value changes, the bare spots, the whatever-I-missed-with-the-naked-eye spots. I wonder why...?

    Love her... I feel like she asking a question like," Are you recycling?" I always see things after it's photographed. Great that you figure that into your process...

    Hugs Giggles

    I immediately thought of the title "Wistful" cause that's how she looks to me. She is perfectly placed and is beautiful !

    I love this Carol, she is so beautiful and the background is beautiful. She seems very thoughtful to me, almost longing and wishful. Fabulous. :o))
    ps - I love her hair colour :o)

    I loved the feeling the landscape/background had in itself, but her expression fits this feeling, so they go together very well. She turned out very lovely!
    Happy PPF
