I was sketching various images in my sketchbook...when this one popped up. I thought it would be the perfect idea to incorporate into my fabric autumn journal for Halloween. I have the perfect quote just waiting for it.....
I took the size of the page and started sketching the images in a larger format...and playing with the layout. These two are my final boy & ghost images.
So now I was ready to start the background....orange, purple, and black were my go-to colors with a few others added in plus tissue/napkins, etc.
And the webbing spray is so fun and such a great texture to add. Finally found some at Michaels...YAY.
I cut out my images and adhered them into place with fluid matte medium. The paper images are so much easier to paint versus the rough texture of fabric.
And thus I began to paint away ...and doodle...and just have fun.
"The naughty green Ezra has eaten all the poppy seed cakes. See!"
Brilliant!!!!! I love everything about it. The colors, the funny characters and the words. Just perfect, Ali!
