Blue

I don't know why, but I find painting girls' hair a traditional shade a dreadful bore. Give me green, pink or blue any day! Perhaps I secretly harbour a desire for technicoloured locks.


This is another in the series of cards I'm creating. Mixed media background with lots of texture, then coloured pencil face on top. I've done about 6 or 7 of these now; I find them rather therapeutic and love how the background gives you such interesting colours and textures for the face.


This one for Mixed Media Monday's blue theme. I'd made the background with the navy accents on all that lush orange and knew it was just crying out for a blue-eyed, blue-haired girl.
