Challenge #126 Stencils as Strings

Challenge #126 Stencils as Strings

I have used stencils by Ed Roth before to use as a beginning as a tile. Here are #1, #2, and #3. I really enjoy this use of stencils and have found it to be rewarding although I never seem to know what to do with the eye space, especially on human type stencils.  Anyway, This time I just used a stencil that is a simple shape:


I used it in the direction shown, then did a mirror image and added just two "leaves" on each side.




I used brown and black micron pens, Faber-Castell cold grey IV Brush and brown colored pencil

    Like the aura of beads that you used. This is one that could almost make your own garden with.

    Yet another idea to use a stencil in more than one way. I love that it's twice it's size in the challenge. Looks great and was a great idea too!
