You guessed it – I’ve been experimenting some more. This time? Watercolors + heavy gesso + black ink. Truly – that’s it. I’m trying to get more comfortable with blending and playing with the colors and I just love how this one turned out! This is a stencil (tea + cup) from The Crafter’s Workshop and I’ll be sharing a tutorial with it later this month.
For now, I’ll be hoping for a cold day so I can sit and sip more hot tea…
Supplies Used:
Huh, I didn’t realize you could use watercolors over gesso. I guess I thought you had to use watercolor paper. This is very pretty!!!
Love how you blended the colors with gesso on your tag…it is beautiful! Sort of a Monet-feel.
I was just here this am and you changed the blog! Looks terrific! Love it. Loved the other way too, though. Anyway, beautiful tag. Love having a front row seat to all the experimenting you’re doing. Love that stencil, too. Michelle t
Very pretty! I love the colors you got in the background and how “chunky” the teacup looks. Great dimension!!
