Art Journal: Forever Yours

I’ve had a play with Sheena Douglass’s latest stamp range Day of the Dead to create this spread.  The focal point is the watercolour effect created by stamping with distress ink and then blending the ink with water to create shading.  Additional colours were then added from Spectrum Aqua Pens.  The sentiment which comes in the set “Siempre Tuyo” translates to Forever Yours.  As for the background, acrylic dyna paints were stamped before the aquatints to create a resist.  Scroll down past the video for ingredients and additional photos…
