Some time ago I added this lovely baby from Mo's Digital Pencil that I had colored .... and not quite made into a card ... yet !
But just for a change I thought I would do something a little different with Baby Fairy Kiki
So yesterday I got out the fine liner pens that I have and I just sat and played.
It took me about two hours to do this Zentangle pattern ... but what a relaxing way to spend some time.
I started by adding the outline of some clothes to the body and then broke it up into sections to make it easier.
I stayed with the same pattern for the little outfit but I tried some different ones for the wings and her hat.
And I have to say that I was quite pleased with my self at the end ... because this is the first time I have tried Zentangle on a digital image.
It won't be the last time as I really enjoyed myself doing this and finishing it into a card.
Once the pattern was added I used my Spectrum Noir pens to color it in and I added the shadows to the clothes just as I would with the original image.
Then once the skin was colored the whole picture was magic. Hope you like ...
More tomorrow ...
Hugs xx
