Gathering Kindling...

"Gathering Kindling" by Mo Manning at Mo's Digital Pencil 

 I've been wanting to use this wonderful image from Mo Manning for awhile now... finally, the perfect opportunity!

The new Aud Sentiments Challenge  is "Bingo" - we may use any image this go around. You can see the oh-so- creative DT's take on this theme- along with details on the challenge HERE.

 My inspiration card for this challenge is using the top row: Monochrome/ 2 Word sentiment/ Texture



TECHNIQUE

[Note: specific information on supplies and sources will be found below under “Supplies”.]

• On this image I sculpted a 2nd layer of her head and hood and her basket to give it depth.  All layers were colored with Copics and elevated with foam tape.
• On the background layers I used the music sheet and two other mats, including a shiny copper CS to pick up the colors from her hair.
• Texture was added with the paper piercing on the Copper layer, the sculpted layers and the brads.
