Demented Crazy Circus Folk 19 & 20/29

I thought I'd photo all three together since they were inspired by the same theme.
The two ATCS make faces 19 & 20.

29 faces 18/29 Hollow Girl

I'm still experimenting to find what to make for the Crazy Circus / Demented ATC SWAP. Here is something I came up with on 4x6 greeting card. Now, to see if I can shrink it down or modify for an ATC.
I used
4x6 greeting card
Muslin, medium flesh, Westport grey, and cool blue DecoArt craft paint
Watercolor pencil
Walmart scrapbook paper
EK border punch
Gel medium

29faces 16 & 17/29

I was doodling around with supplies. The first is craft paint, watercolor pencil, and pen.

The second is Crayola crayon and ink on a 4x6 envelope.

Oval Pendent cuff tutorial- next class I'm teaching !

I wrote this tutorial a few years back. I love it. It's available on my etsy shop jamilola.etsy.com

I will be teaching this at my local bead shop in a few weeks! So excited :). I love teaching wore classes.

29 faced 15/29

I wanted to experiment and try to use the dots in a circus themed face. I joined Willowings ATC swap demented or Crazy Circus. However, it did not come out at all circus- like or demented. I do like how it came out though.

Watercolor pencil
Ink
Hb graphite pencil

I think I'm more illustration than paint. I like the crisp and stark lines in my pieces.

29 faces 11/12/13

I was just doodling in my art book tonight.  Here are three faces I did this evening.  I took the pics with my webcam so not the best photography but oh well.

HB pencil
98lb mixed media paper

29 face 10/29 Diana Goddess

I was going somewhere totally different.  I wanted to do an Afro girl, but this is what came out during sketching time.

29faces 9/29. Sight

Have you ever starting drawing or painting with an end result in mind but then you realize you actually wanted minimalism? I actually did this pic on the 9th. I was going to post it as unfinished. Then I woke up today and looked at it again. It says what I wanted. So it's finished!

Sometimes I think if it's not layered and layered and cluttered and ornate then it's not a done piece. BS. The point is message and feeling.

6x6 watercolor paper
Water color crayons
2 blue color pencils

Mermaid Girl earrings colored :)

These are about to be baked and wired! They will go up for sale in my etsy shop.

29faces 8/29 Beatrice Grey

I had this piece of cardboard from an Amazon .com package. I gave myself the challenge of using only 3 Crayola markers and an HB pencil.
Doing this face also showed me how dark the shadow side of the nose really has to be in order to get a decent pop!

29faces 7/29 Pensive Broken Clown

This is in spired by the ATC September swap prompt on Willowing site. Also because I liked the blue bubble paper :). I plan on painting it but not sure how I want to go with it.
