Chandelier


My daughter ordered this chandelier from the Internet, although she didn't like it when she saw it in person, so she sent it back.

Americana "Cadmium Red" and Anita's "Latte" were the acrylic paints brushed on these pages. I just varied the saturation on the two pages, as well as the direction. When I do a spread like this, I think it pulls the whole thing together to add a bit of the most intense color to the less bold page.

The border on the right page was made with various stencil lines, joined at the corners with a rubber stamp image. Although it doesn't show up well in the scan, the outlines were filled in with a metallic copper pencil.
