I was inspired by the wonderful flowered hats that Ashley Nell Tipton from this season's Project Runway featured in her runway show. They seemed to be the right inspiration for this week's word, "bouquet."
Stencils are kind of like block printing, and there are a number of ways to approach stenciling. It can get quite complicated, especially when you start getting into multiple stencil layers.
It's going to take a while to get the hang of it. However, it was a great day to play with stenciling because I was actually off work, and because I warned everyone that if I didn't get in some art therapy, I would be way too stressed to make it through another week.
They wisely chose to give me that time.
This piece is done with 2 stencils, then colored with acrylics and watercolors, and printed on heavy vintage paper with printing.
Like a lot of my current drawings, you can purchase this piece at ottoblotto on Etsy.
