29Faces - 2 of 29

#2 of 29 in the 29Faces Art Challenge hosted by Ayala Art.  Working on drawing faces from differing profiles.

29Faces Challenge - #1

I'm excited to participate in the 29Faces Art Challenge hosted by Ayala Art.  We're to create 29 faces to improve our drawing, painting and art making using faces.  I've been wanting to draw more so this challenge is perfect!  I'll be trying out lots of styles and expressions as well as doing studies on how to draw noses, lips, eyes and other facial features.  It's also a good way to learn to paint faces.  Here's #1 of 29.

29Faces Challenge - Ayala Art

Ayala Art hosts a 29Faces September 2016 challenge to try new mediums to draw/paint/create faces.  I've been exploring mixed media and want to add some drawing so, I'm giving this a go!  Join in the fun.

Polymer Clay Tutorial Silk Screen Hamsa Hand Pendant

Join me to make these colorful silk screened polymer clay Hamsa hand pendants.  We'll use a silk screen and DecoArt Americana paint to lay the base pattern and then add colorful bits of clay to add zing!    The Hamsa hand is thought to be a protective sign. It is also thought to bring it's owner happiness, luck, health, and good fortune.  Hope you enjoy this project.
