These are the rest of the women I made for the Women ATC swap. I got a bit carried away with these. One thing I noticed was the watercolor markers lightened overnight. You can tell which of the women were colored with watercolor markers and which ones were colored with permanent markers. The permanent markers kept their brilliant colors. You can imagine my surprise when I saw the finished product the next morning.A word of caution. I used my black and red Zig pens on the faces and the black Zig pen got ruined. I tried to use it today and it no longer works. I was really sick about it, because my Zig pens are the best writing instruments I have. The gesso was not kind to it.
I never saw these before. Beautiful!
ReplyDeletetry rubbing the tip of your zig with an alcohol wipe. Sometimes that clears it...sometimes it's trash. :(
I just love what you did with these!

Elizabeth I so envy the freedom in your art. I get so worried about every little dot placement and its wearing... I want to be more like you where the passion and fun shines through :)
