I have been toying with the idea of doing 29 faces again. There is a possible trip in September which would make it hard to do but I think I will still give it a whirl. I probably won't get 29 done but I will get a lot more practice in than if I didn't do this. If you want to participate you can find information on the 29faces blog. So here is my first face.
I had those wonderful mono prints I made with my gelli plate on Friday and created some journal pages with them. This first one had all the same color families. I put strips of several pages together. SInce its so subtle it didn't photograph well. I painted the the face on and old book page and then used gelatos for the hair and dress.
On this one I pulled strips from two different color ways. I added some of Tim Holts tissue paper at the bottom right and then colored in with gelatos. The image is one from the King Tut collection that has always been a favorite of mine.
Those backgrounds are beautiful! And I like the face and the King Tut image. Cool pages!

DeleteI love that top one. Wow, is she beautiful! And the background really is something to behold with the writing and gelli plate prints.
