Tangle Flowers




Although this page is mostly orange, it started out with a light purple wash. I drew simple flowers on masking paper and cut them out to use as a negative stencil. I stuck them all over the page leaving a gap for a face. Then I covered the whole page with yellow, orange and dark orange acrylic paint. I added a second darker layer over a flower stencil to have some more depth in the background. 

After taking away the masking paper the flowers stood out light purple on the orange. I do love to tangle and haven't been doing it enough. So this time I decided to draw tangles end lots of lines. Because I do like lines. 

Since the flowers are quite busy I decided to keep the girl simple with mostly outlines and some highlighting with yellow acrylic paint.  The whole is finished with a simple border. 






The problem is that my phone's camera color corrects the flowers to blue if I do not use a flash. 

See the difference a flash makes on the picture: The bottem one is more the real color. 



Thanks for visiting!
