Off With Her Head


Background coloured with various shades of green and blue fresco paints through lots of different stencils until I was happy with what I had. The main LP image was stamped onto the tag and also onto a separate piece of card. Coloured with tango, submarine and zesty zing fresco paints as they are translucent so I could just paint directly over the top of the stamped image. Cut the image out and placed it over the top of the image on the tag. Added some words and a bit of doodling. Oh and obviously I chopped off her head and gave it back to her to hold in her arms.

Oh, that's a bit macabre! But I do like it! I love the use of colour and the great interpretation of Lynne Perrella's image. A really great and original tag. Julie Ann xx

That's a great solution if the tag you are using is too short for the image LOL. Just kidding; I like this rich coloured tag and Marie Antoinette looks great when she looses her head.
