Experimentation

Hello Ladies,
    Many of you have expressed interest in using photos and other images. This video shows another way to transfer an image to your structure. Also I found a very cool technique using spray paint. Check that out.







     Now ladies, which of these techniques are you interested in trying? Tell me why it appeals to you. Also, are there any art media you want to work with that you have not tried yet? Colored pencils? Watercolors? Markers? Pastels? Let's get you excited for next weeks experimentation! I will check each night and respond to all posts.
