A painting

Hello everyone,

I've been working on a painting and now it is finished I'd like to share it with you. I've taken some photos along the way to show you how I made it.

First step was putting on the flowers. This is a Donna Downey stencil and I've used it with model paste and a pallet knife... 

Next is a layer of gesso which I didn't photograph because it looks about the same ! lol 

Next the fun starts, painting... 

I used a brush and a palet knife... very much still a work in progress... 

Next is some stamping, stencilling and painting... 

First flower painted but not yet finished...

A close up.. It is a shame that the camera won't pick up the background colour which is turquoise and not blue... 

A little stencilling and stamping... 

And after another few hours of painting, stamping and stencilling... oh and some splattering I declared it finished.... 

Here are some photo's..

Thank you so much for stopping by today !
