Hello my CMHCD friends,

As some of you know peacocks are my favorite animals. They are colorful and full of attitude which is what I love about them! They seem to act like they own the world and have the feathers to prove it! The inspiration picture isn't a photo of course but it does illustrate the magnificence of this creature. I saw this stamp on clearance and couldn't add it to my cart fast enough. I love the image, sentiment, and its potential for color. |

This was stamped on watercolor paper. This paper is very coarse and lumpy for stamping. I have to stamp several times to get a clear image. In this case, however, I embraced the inconsistent stamping. When I was done brushing on the color I came in with a black Copic and colored the center with some true black. The outer edges were left with partial stamping. I left it because it added a sense of dreaminess and wonder.

When I was done adding color I added a few white dots with a gel pen and some black dots in groups of three around the edges and in the middle of the image. I think it added interest and whimsy. |
