[Face #10... and Prayer Flags.....]

Love looks not with the eyes...
but with the mind...
.....William Shakespeare

Face number 10 in the 29 Faces Challenge...
painted in my journal with watercolors...

in soft colors...
and with pink fairy floss hair...

and last week
our little mixed media group
swapped Prayer Flags...

the theme was Valentines Day/Hearts...
there are just five of us in the group...
so I decided to make mine all the same...
with stitching and stamping
and different doilies at the bottom...

 and here are the gorgeous ones I received in return...
such a sweet and pretty love flag from Lynne...
and beautiful 'fabric paper' flag from Clare...

 Jen's gorgeous flag... 
with words stitched in free motion...
and Wendy's beautiful flag...
full of texture and embroidery...

I adore them all...
and can't wait to string them across my art space...

well it seems another weekend has slipped quickly by...
but happy I found some creative time...
hope that you did too...

Jenny ♥

  8. Well, I just love the pink fairy floss hair, Jenny! She is lovely! I admire your watercolor work. I can imagine how pretty your workspace is going to be now, filled with gorgeous, heartfelt, handmade prayer flags. Wow. Have a great new week, it is only Sunday morning here, but yesterday was such a well needed restful, fun, creative Saturday. It went fast, yes. I stayed in my jammies and painted in my journal until 2:00 in the afternoon, ha!

  16. Wow, love her pink hair! And I always love your faces, this one included, but fantastic job on the rest of her too - neck, arms, hand, I'm always pretty intimidated the further away I get from the face. Great job.

    And such beautiful flags - REALLY love the ones you made, and you got such lovely ones in return too.

  21. Hi Jenny!

    Wow, she looks stunning! Pink hair and everything!!! :-)
    I've also looked at the other faces, done with gelly-plate? Mixed media works, they are great! Like the colours and the layering.
