Ornament Exchange 2017


Ornament Exchange 2017
Supplies needed:
Wood from PaperWhimsy.com
Stick on Jewels
White Glue
Deco Art Acrylics, Black, White, Red
Sakura Black Pen 03
Sakura White Gelly Roll Pen
Prismacolor Pencils, Flesh, Burnt Sienna,
 White, Indigo Blue
 

BONUS Ornaments
 
This angel ornament and bonus ornaments are both from Paper Whimsy. The stick on jewels are also from them. The patterns are blown up in order for you to see the detail.  There really is no step by step directions since the wood is just base coated and then inked in. There is some shading on the skirt feathers with a mechanical pencil. Otherwise pretty basic stuff with beautiful outcome.
Here are the hand drawn patterns. Full size patterns can be emailed to you by requesting them at raderizms@hughes.net.

Latest and Greatest

New Painting, just finished. It is very big. I love it. Mixed Media Acrylic 36 X 40. Entering into an invitational show. Deadline soon.

Starting Over!

Well, I have been invited to join a group of decorative painters for a blog hop. Guess it's time to clean up the OLD blog and make it pretty! In the meantime some pretty pictures for you.  This is a workshop that I am teaching on Oct. 21st. with Karen Blake. Class is almost sold out. Yeah!
