TRY IT TUESDAY


This is my effort for the
'TRY IT TUESDAY' challenge.
This is the first time I've tried doing this type of background technique.

The canvas on the left was a wash done, with yellow, then ocra and then burnt umber, it didn't come out too bad for a first try but I felt something was missing.



The canvas on the right is the finished effort. What I did is I got hold of a Brilliance coral ink pad and added colour around the edges.........I got the effect that I wanted. I've called the collage 'MIO SOLE' = 'MY SUN'

H ave to say I'm proud of my self as I finally took the time to try something.....................one problem .....................as I'm more or less computer illiterate .............how do I upload the photos to take part in the challenge !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
