Ruined and saved spread, and a neglected blog......

Since these days I show all my artwork via Facebook, I must admit I have totally neglected my blog. So sorry, I will probably get no comments at all since nobody is watching anymore.....
Anyhow, made this spread and hated it! Not my colours, and I found it looked rather messy. Well, that is me, Messy Frea LOL!!
So I decided to take out my Jane Davenport book, and practice drawing a face onto my ugly spread, and 'lo and behold', I actually like it now.....
The background is collaged, and I used inksprays en stencils, and then moved on to acrylic paints. I used some cut out heart masks from leftover paper.
The face was done with acrylic paint. I love the way her eyes turned out. You can see the edges of the colleged paper here and there, but I really don't mind that. I think she looks a little sad (as do all Jane's faces), but she also looks really sweet. Like a lovable person.
Then I stamped my message, which is good advice, and I should take it to heart myself....

Hope anyone is still watching, otherwise this would be a wasted effort. Have a great Wednesday you all!
Hugs Frea
