FACE NO 17 FOR 29 FACES FEBRUARY

MONDAY 17 FEBRUARY - FACE 17

'Flourishes in Shades of Red'
Mixed Media - by Jez
Today I combined two challenges, creating a face that matched the So Artful challenge of 'Flourishes in Shades of Red', as well as the 29 Faces theme.

When I had drawn the girl's head, I intended to add quite a bit of collage, but as soon as I had stuck down those two red grid pieces I knew that was my starting point for the flourishes.  I'm quite pleased with this.

  1. This is terrific, a really unusual arty face, I like her hair and green lips. You've combined the face so well with the flourishes, so that the flourishes are an integral part, and that's a lovely swirly frame. Thaks for coming along to Soartful and sharing it with us.

  9. This turned out beautifully. I love swirls of any color, but it's extra good when you can combine challenges.
