Paper Artsy Theme 3: Paint

The new PaperArtsy prompt is Paint. OK, I use paint on everything, so this is not helping - my muse needs something else to wake up. When I saw this post by Anneke De Clerck, I got an idea that I could use one of my tree stencils... It takes little to inspire me (but I usually deviate greatly from the piece that inspired me... LOL)




I first started with a stencilled tree shape. I went over it with black paint with a hint of purple.


I added some white splashes.


Then I applied various paints through the same stencil.



It needed a bit of "cleaning" around the leaves...


Finally I added a quote. I went over the letters with a Wink of Stella glitter pen.


[It was bugging me that the "Ideas" were not properly centred. So I added "My" in front. I love it when mistakes lead to improvement...]
