Week two of the challenge and from the top there is Pictogram; Rubik's Cube and Found (in my case, I made some found poetry from my go-to book, which seems to have just what I need every time,
The Trojan Horse by Hammond Innes). I have been using distress inks, watercolours and acrylic paint this week.
Top left is Rainbow; Cyanotype or Blueprint (I chose to do a faux cyanotype using my gel plate and a fern leaf from the garden); Toy (layered Teddy stamp) and Mood Board (I used scraps from my collage box and was pleased to see all the different blues.) I really enjoyed the found poetry, the cyanotype and mood board from Week two. On I go!
These are lovely. I particularly like the fern and the bear.
ReplyDeleteThanks, EC. I really enjoyed making the fern print and the process worked well on the gel plate. The bear can be a bit tricky to line up sometimes (three layers) but when I get it right, it looks great!

The fern is so pretty, and I love the teddy bear, yes, prettiness and cuteness wins every time for me.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jo. The fern and teddy bear are certainly the most popular. There's nothign wrong with a bit of prettiness and cuteness, is there?!

The fern is so effective. Of course I like the teddy too :) x
ReplyDeleteThanks, Lulu. The false cyanotype worked beautifully on the gel plate. The gel plate is such a versatile piece of equipment and I really enjoy finding out what it can do. It's also great fun to use!
