FullCircleWorkshop - Lantern homework - thanks Misty! |
Yay - I'm calling my lantern finished for now and she's hanging #InMyStudio
(even though I have one face still to paint). I will go back to and finish her a bit later.
I knew from the beginning I wanted my lantern to be filled with ladies!
Like another artful gathering...
And I guess I wanted it to be very soft and feminine.
The best part of my lantern is I had a tiny piece of my grandmother's lace left
and I've been saving it for something special... and it fitted around, exactly perfectly!
I love synchronicity like that.
Not only that - but the light shines through the lace, like the tiny holes on the card.
I did each panel on different days but I tried to keep with the theme of the small holes all the way around!
I'm so thrilled with the outcome but even more thrilled with the light shining through!
However, I have to say my back, neck and arm aren't feeling so thrilled...
I'm riddled with knots and spasms. I'm going to have to do some light painting later, just taking it easy!
Who says being an artist isn't hard work ;-)
