Hello Fall


 I made these pages about 2 months ago, but never posted about them. 

I've drawn sketches of a face looking at something on a mushroom a couple of times in my sketchbook. When I found 2 calligraphic "Hello's", that I had written on tissue paper to test out some ink a while ago, I got an idea :)

The first page I used had already some tissue paper glued on from other project that had some leftovers. So I just started on that page. I used some white to tone it down and added fall colors with my Schmincke watercolors. 

The two pages took a while to make because I wasn't sure about painting with acrylics, so I was procrastinating and for a couple of weeks the pages looked like this:


And then when I found the courage to start on the acrylic, I forgot to take pictures 🙄
The only thing I added to the background after these pictures are the Hello's and some stamped leaves in fall colors. 
Everything else is painted with Amsterdam Acrilycs and I used Faber Castell Polychromos colored pencils to add some details and extra shading. 

So here a pictures of the finished pages.
