I DESIGN FOR SCRAPBOOK CREATIONS
ON THE COLOR TEAM .
our commission was to create a layout
using some colors from the following palette .
My view and approach on the palette
Soothing Blues and greens
– I knew immediately I would be going with a ‘Garden Theme’.
I love to choose some
elements, cast a spell, and see what happens.
Subtle shadows, light and
color are all ingredients for casting this spell.
Light blue skies, soft blues
and pink flowers mingled with white,
brighten the damp shady corners of my
garden.
Nature is all-consuming, inspiring and a natural expression of my inner
self,
which I love to weave into my works, creating harmony and peace to soothe
my soul.
Colors used from the
palette……
Main colourways
Sky Blue, Blue Lagoon, Celadon,
Prussian Blue, Yellow Green
Complimentary colours
Naples Yellow Hue, White
'BLISS'
The pic shows one of my FAVE SPOTS at the bottom of MY GARDEN .
Handy Tip
When using ink I always like to do numerous thin layers..
By applying a thin watery layer first and adding more layers as they dry works a treat … building layer upon layer, allows the colour to remain translucent and fresh .
Sometimes we can all be a little impatient, wanting to see the desired colour immediately, but be doing layer upon layer is not only fun but you will also receive a more satisfying result …
I have posted a rustic/grunge mini book on my
ART AND SOUL BLOG
