This Is SO You


This ATC is for a swap I did via my Paper Traders group. The card is supposed to exemplify your typical style. My art just reflects my mood and attitude at the time of creation, and the day I made these I was thinking Spring and new beginnings.

Le Reputation de Teint



This art spread is for Keron's Paper Trader Journal entitled Le Reputation de Teint

These are her instructions:

Go to your local paint store, pick a colour chip you like the name of and use it as the inspiration for subject of the page. The PAINT chip needs to be included, with its name on it.

I happened to have these paint chips lying about, having saved them from a bedroom remodel I did last year, and since they are a favorite combination of mine, the spread was a delight to compose. This woman is one of Leonardo's, I love the subtle but rich colors in her face, and the absolute symmetry of her features.
