WAW #56 & PPF #38

This is a background painted in acrylic paints with some rubbing gold wax added. I outlined some parts with white gel pen. After painting a couple of things and rubbing them back off, I decided to smear some gesso over part of it. Then I digitally added the scripture given to us by Word Art Wednesday.

Just on a whim, I used my Photoshop Elements to invert the colors. This is far more dramatic than the original coloration. I am entering this in Word Art Wednesday. This is the only painting I have done this week since I'm busy wrapping Christmas gifts for mailing and writing notes in my Christmas cards. So I am also going to enter this in the Paint Party Friday #38 too.

Paint Party Friday - two entries

I feel like this is not a legitimate entry since I have only a little of paint in this post. The boxes are hand stamped and constructed of 2 pieces of cardstock each. I am showing only four of the ones I made. Inside are the Christmas gifts for the wonderful ladies in the Bible study class I lead each week.

Tonight our granddaughter who is doing research for her PhD in Chemistry at Cal Berkeley called us to wish us Happy Thanksgiving. Before I knew it I had doodled this girl, which I later painted with watercolors. I decided that I'd show this off at Paint Party Friday.

Happy Thanksgiving Day to All!

Psalm 34:1 is the theme scripture for this week's 

Word Art Wednesday.

PPF - Li'l Redhead's Portrait

Li'l Redhead is someone I created when my redheaded granddaughter was a child. Unfortunately, she never looks exactly the same so I am assuming that at different ages, Li'l Redhead looks a bit different. I did this large portrait this week and am entering it in the Paint Party Friday challenge. I may go back and outline it as the other pictures of her are done.

Word Art Wednesday #54

This lovely ballerina is from Graphics Fairy. I thought she looked as if she could be dancing before the LORD. Please click on the image to read the scripture text better.

This entry was made digitally using a doodle I had done and colored and put onto my computer plus a digital copy of a card I had made for another challenge. For some reason I named this girl Becky when I drew her. I believe Becky is very happy and feels like dancing.

These are my entries for Word Art Wednesday, where the theme is Psalm 30: 11-12.

PPF and Artekarten

This abstract of tree leaves against the sky was made using acrylic paints, some of which were shiny with mica. The text is added digitally.  I am entering this in Paint Party Friday.

This second version has hand written script, a part of the poem Trees by Joyce Kilmer and is being entered in Art Cards Challenge.

Fun with ATCs - Fashion

Fun with ATCs theme this week is Fashion. I have used a background I made using gesso and sprays plus a few scraps of texts. The image of Audrey Hepburn is from Dover Publication freebies.
