In the dead of the night...


When I was painting/writing with the GP I mixed up way too much, so quickly grabbed the nearest stencil and a piece of corrugated.


It sat there for a few days and then the PanPastelUk and Think Monday, Think Atc themes were revealed.  I painted the corrugated firstly in elephant fresco paint, then applied a coat of elephant mixed with black dress and finally another coat of black dress mixed with pewter.  I replaced the stencil and sponged through with French roast and then pewter treasure gold.  The moon was created with vanilla fresco paint and a spellbinders circle nestie.


Stamped the images and coloured them with new colours of distress markers.  The words and the fence have been coloured with extra dark grey pan pastel (820.2).

Very cool - and so inspired by seeing those bare branches - I've just got that stencil and looking forward to cracking it open now!

The shading on the trees looks brilliant, and I love your spooky ghouls.
