February 28 Art Challenge: At least five layers
Prompt: Give me a high five
For this challenge, I was inspired by this page from Lynn Whipple that I found in Lynne Perella's book Artists' Journals & Sketchbooks.
Started with a watercolor wash background and then added an old film strip and a background sticker of bugs from an old sheet of Rocky Mountain postage stamps. Did some paint splatters with black, brown, and white acrylic paint.
The red blotches came off of my fingers when I colored this sticky-back canvas tracing of my hand.
I tried spritzing paint on this too and doing some designs with a sharpie, but the marks all bled. Used some white paint later which worked better. Also glued on a small strip of wire mesh to the hand.
