Giraffe in Mixed Media


 This Giraffe is from a tutorial by Tamara Laporte. I used an assortment of scrap booking papers for the collage, after tracing the outline provided.

I used two colors of Daler Rowney acrylic inks and a Speedball Ink to paint this beautiful animal. I added some liquid watercolors from Dr. Ph. Martin's Hydrus set 1. I enjoy seeing the words on my collage papers thru the inks.

I added design elements with Posca and Micron pens.

I decided not to paint the background.

I love my finished painting!

  5. Carla I saw your giraffe at A Place to Start and just had to pop over and say how fabulous it is. The colours and how you pieced it together are so striking.
