This is the last challenge for January's Theme of facing the blank page.
The Art Challenge is- Week 5. Under Paper
- Week 5. What lies beneath?
For my first challenge I used book pages torn from a novel by Jane Austin called
Pride & Prejudice.
It is a story of how Love overcame these obstacles.
I began by writing my thoughts in watercolour pencils, then sprayed with water so that the colours ran into each other, but the background was to pale.
The next day, I decided to collage with book paper, then colour the background with chalks. The background had the subtle colouring I was looking for,
but the printed text gave it more visual interested then my first attempt.
I cut two hearts & a frame from the book
& printed out a romantic image, together with the page caption.
Finally, I added some doodling, elements from 7 Dots Studio & a little tape.
