After a very very long time, playing alongwith Black with two. This month's colours matched a photograph from one of my France vacations perfectly. The background came together in a few mins and the layering went zip zap zoom and withing 30mins all done!
Now that almost never happens with me, so Im very happy :) May not be one of my best layouts, but I'm glad the story behind this photograph is finally documented. For the background, I used texture paste through a stencil, gave it a coat of black gesso and then rubbed grey paint over the raised areas.
Wow! This turned out beautifully and shows off your skills as a versatile artist. Black is a tricky color for me to work with in large quantities, so I was really excited to see what you did with it. I really like how it's darkest around the edges and then lightens up around your photo. It reminds me of a gorgeous misty night or a beautiful lit-up building peeking through the fog. I am also really impressed with the amount of pattern and texture you managed to achieve. Love those hints of pale blue! You did a great job and your pieces always inspire!
