Yesterday I showed you another watercolour paint doodle I was working on and today I got out my Microns and Pitt pens and added some black doodling over the paint.
I just love how it makes it pop. I've also added some additional dimension using my Inktense pencils to add some shading and highlights here and there.
The final step was to add the words and since the image ended up reminding me of a garden path, that lead to the words I chose. In hindsight, I wish I had written the text in larger, bolder letters, but what's done is done.
If you look at the close ups, you'll also see that I added some text, using a Micron 01 between the leave and petals on the right hand page too.
It was fun drawing the little pebble circles within the larger circles. I love doing that when I free motion stitch so I decided to add it in my doodle too.
The photos don't really show it, but I love the contrast between the regular watercolours and the Twinkling H2Os. It just give a bit of glimmer and pop to some areas.
Thanks for your visit. I don't say it enough, but I really appreciate you taking the time to stop by! Have a fabulous week!
Wow, it is definitely popping!
