This is the third in a series of flower collages. I tried dying a piece of paper towel with colored India Inks for part of the background. I used that along with magazine papers and old stamps. I put layers of more colored India Inks, Neocolor II Caran d’Ache crayons, and a little acrylic paint. The paper towels made for a rough texture (maybe I was supposed to iron the towels?). I didn’t plan to use the black ink again but I really like the effect I get with it. Have a blessed and Happy Easter!!!
Gorgeous flowers! Thanks for going into detail on the technique. Very inspiring.
