In my Shadow. OddBall Art CCC bewsletter feature

-
Hello everyone!

Happy FRI-YAY! Today I have a fun and easy project to share with all of you featuring tonights OddBall Art Creepy Cute Chronicles newsletter freebie.

I begin by printing the image on 70lb Neenah Vellum white cardstock. 


I first do a base of color with alvohol markers. I have chosen really stof pastel colors to begin. 

Ones the full main imagebis colored, I will also hand draw some paint platter behind the image. I love this look for craft related images. Adds a fun touch.


I will add extra color, texture and details with Prismacolor Premiere pencils. The alcohol markers help build up the color and create faster shading and highlights. 


I will them trim the cardstock down to size and add some Distress Oxide Black  Soot over the border of the paper.

A really quick way to create card covers. How would you color this image? Would you use something bright?

Make sure to sign up for tonights newsletter, so you can get this wonderful image. If you're signed up as a Premium Membership subscriber,  you will have access to a premium version of the image.

Altered Project AECP Final

  Hello everyone! Today I'm sharing the second part of my final project for the Level 2 classes for the Aletnew Educator Certification Program. We got tasked with Altering or Upcycling an item, and I decided to alter this wall art piece I had gottern at Target a couple of years ago. I love the look of it, and how simple it is, but I also wanted to include pops of colors found around our house. We do have a coffee station in our home, and this will be the perfect accent piece for that space. I started by applying a bit of masking tape over the bottom black portion of the circle. I decided to add some color with Apple Barrel acrylic paint in the color Laguna. It is the perfect shade of teal (in my opinion). I didn't sand the piece before hand because I will be addimng texture, but you can definitely do that if you want full coverage. Using a dry paper towel, I will go over the still wet paint, leaving behind "splotches" on the surface. This is a fun and easy way to add
