I was so pleased with my self this week that I wanted to document it in my DPL challenge. I had at long last managed to lose half a stone, my goal for the year is to lose a whole stone so I'm half way there.
The challenge was to use repeating elements. I drew a thick set figure on a piece of paper and then traced it on to acetate. I then thinned it down a tiny bit and traced it onto another piece of acetate. I repeated the process two more times making it a bit thinner each time and slowly giving it a waist.
I then cut the figures out leaving a stencil. I had my repeating stencils which I used with gesso. I then coloured them with my neocolours making the colours more intense and darker as they progressed.
Keeping to my aim of using up supplies this year, I used some old letter beads for the title. I sewed them onto small pieces of card and then stuck the card onto my page.
