You are a work of art...

Good morning!

I got an order from 7 Kids on Friday and this Beautiful Girl Sydnee from Picket Fence was in there... squeeee! If you can't tell I was just a bit excited to ink her up and have a go at coloring Sydnee up. I stamped her in desert sand ink for some no-line coloring and then dove right in. As I was working on her hair I started getting a very Art Nouveau kind of vibe from Sydnee so I decided to embrace it and really give this card a dreamy, romantic look. To that end I sketched in a flowing gown for her to wear and then got to work creating a sun dappled wooded stream for her to stand beside. There was a whole lot of trial and error that went into coloring that background but I learned a lot and am pretty happy with the end result.  :)

Later gators!
