Cindy had a giveaway recently, and lovingly gave away 5 of her beautiful handmade brooches. I received Betty Boop, as she says i remind her of her LOL. oh how i wish i had her looks, body and vitality. lol
She also very very kindly sent me some ric rac, which i will definitely be using after the hols.
Sweet sweet Cindy.
Now another dear friend of mine in Tasmania isBelinda .
She is giving away an absolute humdinger of a giveaway. Not one, not two but...... FIVE ART DOLLS. can you believe it. Woweeee.
Oooh i hope i win one. Here is one of the beautiful art dolls
They are clear and concise with photos of each stage, plus tips as well.
Tomorrow, i will show you the results from my attempts lol.
I had such fun, it reminded me of the days in the print room, at both college and uni. Oh boy did i enjoy printmaking. It really gives you a buzz, mono-printing, collograph, dry etching.
This technique was similar in some ways to acid etching, ie with the building up and washing away. Similar but different. lol
So get on over and have a try at one of her tutorials.

Today i am learning a new technique known as gouache and ink resist. Hence the dirty hands.
This is from a tutorial from my dearest friend Ange (Agnes the Red). She is an absolute brilliant artist, and jewellery maker and cake maker and........ the list goes on, and she is fantastic at each and every one of her arts.
We both belong to a yahoo group known as New Inspirations, and bi-monthly she gives us GREAT tutorials for new techniques for us to learn.
Here's a link to the resist technique
