Pam's four for February

I hope to have a better photo soon...but in the interim here we are!

Letter D - a built up overly and wash technique
Letter F - a background of gold & silver crayons and watercolours and letter written with a ruling pen and Sumi ink
Letter G - I am now attending a watercolour class which is great but I am going to end up with a lot of colour swatches so I'll have to find ways to put them to good use. So a dirty wash applied to this yellow one and "G" written with a ruling pen whilst still wet.
Letter S - the non-obvious part to this letter is the charcoal area which is eyeshadow that I spilt all over the dressing table. It was very nice to use!

Letter E - Pam


I first applied a wash; drew over it with a gold crayon; painted over the gold with black Sumi ink and then drew an "E" with a reed pen which exposed the gold.

Letter C - Pam


The Letter "C" was written with a piece of balsa wood dipped in bleach over a wet watercolour wash

Letter B - Pam


The Letter "B" was written with the large end of an embossing tool; brushed with a dry brush and then a 2-colour watercolour wash applied. Interesting repelling around the letter

January Letters - Pam


I've had a lot of fun playing with some experimental ideas that I plan to keep as a reference.
Letter "A"was drawn with coloured pencils, wet, then an "A written with black ink whilst still wet.
