Cajun Hot house.....


Isn't Edna beautiful in her new spa? ! Ha.  I made this picture for a cousin of mine.  She remodeled her bathroom and asked if I could do her a set of pictures so this is one of them.  I really like this one.  I of course stamped Edna on whisper white card stock.  I then colored her in with colored pencils and used mineral oil to smooth the pencil marks .  I cut her out and put her aside.  I then chose a shade of brown card stock for the background and added a medium blue card stock on top of that. The last was whisper white card stock.  I placed Edna where I wanted her and made a few clue marks and then put her back on the side.  I sketched a floor line and the mind took over from there for the rest of the scene.  I love louvered window shutters and would love a room with just that for windows so what better.  I sketched in the two side sitter's and then the center ones.  I sketched the swamp scene in next. My next art work was the wall below the window and then the floor.  I went over everything with a black sketching pen and then colored in with the crayon pencils. ( I always sketch with a  lead pencil and then go over with the sketching pen.) I put in a floor mat near the tub  and some towels . I just like the whole thing and I think my cousin will be pleased.
