Paint on my fingers fills my world with color!

I woke up this morning and 

put my running shoes on..

because I was planning to go workout.

but as I walked through the craft room...

I just started grabbing paints and throwing them on the table!
I just couldn't help myself!

I had a 

"I NEED TO PAINT RIGHT NOW!?!"

moment! 

a few weeks ago my mom and I looked into "She-Art"

because it's a mixed media style 

that resembles my favorite artist A LOT

(Kelly Rae Roberts!)
except her's is like...

A MILLION TIMES MORE AMAZING!

but anywho!
something inside me said..

"Haley... grab that blank canvas and lets get crackin'!"

so I was feeling blue! 

not sad... but the color lol

and I threw on some distressed book pages for fun!

Next was add texture and color!
the red stamp popped really nicely

and the sponged yellow/gold helped create more depth.

Next came the girl! 

(she was kinda difficult...

but mixed media is a lot of impressionism 

so that made it a lot easier!)

being real boxy and using lots of outlining was key! 

then I used cotton squares and ink pads

to blur lines and blend! 

(Yellow was a hit!)

last but not least 

I added stamps, rub-ons, embellishments

and a cute quote! 

I think she turned out great! 

I'm excited to make more!! 

I call this craft morning!..

A SUCCESS!!
:)
