A re-post of blog  Day #264, April 17, 2013

2,116 days ago and a step-by-step. 

             Using a 18x24" digital ...

for the background

and papers I started ...

drawing Sara with white
on the darker background.

Initially using just papers and gel medium ...

at one point I thought she might be a blonde? 

But, she seemed to want red.

I layered in the shadows and simple areas.

Using sewing patterns and white tissue for skin tone.

I decided to keep the original upper background.

At this point, I started adding some acrylic

to the face to accentuate smaller details,

but sparingly, so the collage shows through.

I'm thinking 95% paper, 5% acrylic.

This was a one day effort, some days are productive,

as Sara seemed to cooperate and 
tell me what she needed.
