Different

This has been a different sort of week for me, everything feels a bit off balance. I'm sure it's because of my foot and not being able to get back to my normal routine of long daily walks. The foot is feeling better and it's only ten more days till I have it checked again. I've started five different things this week and have put all but one aside. Some may never come out again. The one that I am happy with is different than anything I've done before, maybe next week it will be far enough along to share.

The Weekly Leaf
This weeks leaf is done on a piece of hand painted fabric done with Jacquards Dynaflow and some salt sprinkles. Then I used a stencil to print the leaf with paintstiks.
I used the fern stencil from Dina Wakley.

The areas I don't want are masked off with blue painters tape, it also holds the stencil in place while I brush on the paintstik color.

Color on.

  1. I love working with pencils and Shiva Paintsticks. Your leaf is lovely!
    Good luck with the healing. I know it must be frustrating.

  4. This week it is the silk daily stitching that has grabbed my attention. Love it! And I admire all the different techniques you try out.
    Hope the foot continues to improve

  5. What caught my attention was how the stitching fragment echoed the stitched edging of the leaf...
