PLASTER STUDIO...

WHOO HOO!!!

i received my new book in the mail...and am taking their class in june...but couldn't wait another second to give something a try.



the book is so well done, clear, concise and of course...artisically gorgeous... "judy and stephanie" STYLE!



i went for the the caulking excercise judy wrote up...



i used an old book cover, spread on the caulk, inscripted my outlines for a face and some textures, having no idea how this would turn out. let it dry and went for my paints...



it was such a surprise all around...the caulking took the painting so BEAUTIFULLY, that i wanted to paint on it forever, it was marvelous! i actually liked my surprise 'TURN OUT', it was almost like painting backwards or with your eyes shut tight...extremely freeing and fun!



i shall attempt more with time :))!



right next door in one of the photos you can catch a glimpse of a little painted plaster gauze...it ain't over yet for experimentation!!!






these are both the same painting...lighting a little different...maybe so you can see the textures and inscriptions...



GO PAINTING!!! XOXO
