Lipstick Lady 1
Well, this is for Rains "portrait" obviously. This IS ME! I painted with my lips and lipstick, So, it is a portrait of ME. The top one is the first I made. Worked quite well with the eyes. The second one was harder. When you try to create the same form/shape with the lips you fail. And trying to do it in a "correct" position was not easy either. But never mind. It was a fun thing to do.
Belowe:
I received a free class from artist Ania Witwitzka in Creative painting and this is my first work inspired from that.
Christmas Star
Fifth layer and finished of with a glittery star glued on it.
This is a Christmas card I received a couple of days ago from my daughter and granddaughter.
My granddaughter bought it in Queensland before she was able to come back to Sweden.
I share it because I was so impressed with it as soon as I studied it closely. The card is 15x15 cm. And it is not painted, it is Paper Filigree art. The height of the rolled paper is maybe 1 mm, I can´t even measure it. I made a closeup in the corner for you to see.
I have never seen anything like this before!

Yesterday we had a bit of sunshine! And it created headlines in the news. First hours of sunlight in December! Today it is back to grey again. With the clouds on the ground!

I wish for some SNOW.
Take care!

I love the lipstick lady. Congrats on the free class. Always nice to learn, especially when it is free. The filigree art, isn't it amazing.
ReplyDeleteInteresting to see your filigree art and the lipstick lady, I like her :)
ReplyDeleteGreat, fanciful with lipstick the drawing her self-portrait, mainly you enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful with the poinsettia and the many layers
Fascinating this beautiful paper art on the card of your daughter!
Have a good christmas time, hugs Elke
What a fun way to create a face, such a clever way to put marks on paper. I am very drawn to that filigree bird, so much detail in every curl of the paper, so special to have received it from your Daughter & Grandaughter.
ReplyDeleteHappy TAD Tracey xx
Lovely lipstick ladies!
ReplyDeleteI was so amazed and impressed that you created these two faces with lipstick. I can see it once you tell me, but I was truly impressed. Nice that you got a free class and learned a lot in it, too. Of course, that filigree reminds me of quill work. It is amazing, too.
ReplyDeleteLove your Christmas star creation, great colours and textures. Anesha
ReplyDeleteFun lipstick lady art. My favorite is the Christmas star today. Thanks for sharing the bird card as well. Such intricate details! Happy PPF!
ReplyDeleteWell, you have luscious lips, my friend and they served you well in making your portrait. So five layers later you have something that looks like a cross between Christmas and the 4th of July ... unique and fun and a very interesting technique. And, all of that for free ... Yea!!! You do have fun in your life :) I have seen filigree before and it is indeed beautiful and baffling how anyone could do it. That said, the card is gorgeous and your daughter and granddaughter have demonstrated great good taste in their art choices. Lovely, Monica ... You are staying safe, I am sure ... and I hope you are well and will be able to enjoy a peaceful Christmas :)
