Geisha

Hi Friends! 

Here is my Designs Team project for Anything But A Card April's Challenge...Fool's Gold.

I have never attempted a Geisha before and my dear friend Susan is visiting me and sketched this lovely Geisha for our sketch release for April.  I just had to color her for this challenge and for our new sketch release.  I used Dura-Lar, it's an acetate alternative.  I then used my H20's right on top to color her and what a surprise I got.  Absolutely amazing technique which I used before on some of my butterflies I did a tutorial on but never on a larger piece like this one.  I also used gesso for her skin and acrylic for her hair.  I have done a tutorial for this picture to inspire you to try this technique for yourself.  You can purchase the sketch for this Geisha in our Etsy Shop.

Please come and join us over at Anything But A Card and have some fun with this challenge. 

Thank you for visiting with me... xo
