After having lunch in a small café in Zürich I was brainstorming of what kind of Images I would like to make an art journal page with scrolling though Pinterest I saw an Image and I wrote down: "A ballet clown". Weeks later I checked my list and saw: ballet Clown and frowned, wait a minute what I meant was a Pierrot! As a kid I had a couple of Pierrot dolls with ceramic heads. I made this one a bit grungier.
As most of my pages there was already some color on this one. In this case pink, I added some more pink acrylic paint over a floral swirly stencil. I muted it down by using a brayer with titanium white over it. I drew in diamonds and used paper edges to help me paint them blue. I used the same swirly flower stencil to add some darker blue followed again with titanium white with a brayer. It gives it a bit of a grungy look.
After I colored the pierrot with Tombow makers I decided to add some purple acrylic though a Tim Holtz diamond stencil.
I shaded the big diamonds with blue and pink Inktense pencils that I blended out with a baby wipe.
The black circles on the left are made with black modeling paste with sand texture from Søstrene Grenes. Søstrene Grenes is not really a craft or art brand, but I do like this modeling paste that I found there. I also bought some brushes, but haven't used them yet.
To finish everything off I added a smokey border with Distress ink Black sooth and a blending brush.
