Pebeo Cerne Relief

I don't know what it is about me and relief or resist. The first couple of times I get back into it my hands shake like a leaf! Notice the blobs and unevenness of the lines. Thankfully I know as the piece progresses that will all be unnoticeable to most people. I'll still see it but I've learned to accept it as part of the process. I think it's a lot like the photo quilts, I've learned to like the lines a little messy. It reminds me of being a kid and coloring outside the lines only this time I get to make the lines. This is the Pebeo Cerne Relief in black on hardboard primed with gesso. These are a couple of little boards I cut for ATC's or ACEO's a few years ago. They are the perfect size to experiment with the Pebeo Paints.

I'm thinking about a series of animal eyes so I thought I would try one to see how it goes. This is another turtle shell attempt. I really liked how the last one turned out and want to try a couple other colors.
