Touchy Feely (Texture)

Art Challenge: Cheesecloth
Journal Prompt: Say Cheese
The challenge continues the quest for texture by suggesting cheese cloth for the art technique and "say cheese" for the journal. I wanted to use the cheese cloth to bring some dimension to a portrait of a women from my practice book. In teaching myself to draw, I have found the hardest part seems creating a natural mouth. I want this woman to smile. Everybody looks better smiling. I used a photocopy of my drawing to create the image and the dyed cheesecake for drama (I used a new product, Tint It Spray Dye Paint, which I love because it does not interact with liquids once it is dry)
Lovely Linda! I really like the simplicity of this, her gaze, and the flow of the cheese cloth across both of the pages! Nice work :)
