I sketched this face almost two weeks ago and today I decided to alter her a bit. I used a variety of old texts plus music bits from an old songbook. Then I used acrylic paints…black, moss green and white, to paint a background. The background turned out a little darker than I planned, so, I used the title of the song “June Night” from the page where I tore the music pieces. I outlined all the paper elements with a Micron pen to give them more definition.

Well, this is just SO cool! I really love the portrait with text/hair, something I would have never thought to do–excellent creativity!

Love the hair! And I think the background looks good with just that touch of color.
