And having a play with different colours. I have been caught up using mainly autumnal colours, so I am trying to get out of my comfort zone and have a little experiment with some colours.
I saw an article in the most recent Somerset Studio, where the artist loved pink and green. It looked nice, I thought I would have a play. Mmmmmmmm....... been messing about with this for a few days now, experimenting with different shades of both the pink and the green. The Artist (I'll get up out of my comfy armchair in a mo and go and get the mag and tell you who she is..) did say it is very dependant on particular shades of both the pink and green, and I have to agree. I don't think this is quite what I was after, sometimes I like the whole thing, other times I don't... just not sure. Is it the colour? Is it the whole thing? I suspect it may grow on me, but then again maybe it won't.
Can you tell I am rather undecided??
Still I have had fun doing it.
Still rather Kelly Rae Roberts influenced but I hope I have put my own slant on it. The face is on a mini canvas so stands out from the rest and the little girl stamp is on Stampboard.
The whole thing is supposed to tell a story, and it does to me, so I guess I have got quite alot out of making it
Found her - Lisa Kaus - wow check her blog!!
Update from when I wrote this last night! -
Looking back at the mag i have totally overdone the pink and green, but having said that, looking at this in the daylight I am getting rather attached to it. It's interesting having a play with colours you don't usually use or don't think you like, give it a go!
oooh i love it, i think pink and green are such a fab colour combo i also really like pink and brown (this is strange seems as i actually dont like pink !!!)
ReplyDeleteMmmm Pink and brown sounds nice... and i don't like pink much either lol
ReplyDeleteIf you don't like it, spray with glimmer mist
