Wild Child


Dramatic curls make up this young lady's look.  The page was given a wash with water colours then I adhered a small piece of paper torn from a disguarded book. Once dry I added a coat of transparent gesso before stamping the surface with found objects; plastic tubes, ends of wire bobbies etc using a Distress Ink Stamp pad.  Finally the image of the girl was added using Sharpie permanent pens.  I've a feeling that Copic or similar pens would be very useful for this job.  I know I have a few in a tin somewhere, I must hunt them out.
