For my entry in the Art By Mi Ran progressive challenge on the Facebook page I challenged myself to use colours that I would normally avoid because I cannot get them to blend as well as others. So it's away with the reds and out with the oranges, purples and greens!
Materials used:
Art By Mi Ran image - it was the image for the challenge and will be available in the store soon.
Color Your Way- Valentine Digital Paper Feather
X-Press It card
Copic pens
white feathers
green and orange card
A5 white card blank
The image is printed out on X-Press it card and the feathers on ordinary printer card.
The sentiment is computer generated.
The white feathers have been coloured using the same Copics as I used to colour the bird and image feathers. Colouring the feathers was an experiment that actually worked!
Even though I was working out of my comfort zone with the colour combination I am quite pleased with the final result. The problem now is that I cannot stop stroking the feathers, they are so soft!
Thank for dropping in. Take care.
Pippa
