My teabag art for today inspired by Jane Davenport

My teabag art for today was inspired by Jane Davenport.  This was an unused teabag primed with clear gesso and while I was making my gel plate journal page yesterday i did the same process on this teabag for the background.  I used a Jane Davenport technique of using the background as her dress and bow in her hair.  This was done with acrylic paints.  Details added with Jane's aquapastels and inkcredible pen.

Tea Bag art using Jane Davenport Beautiful Faces book

Ok, I need a lot more practice, LOL!!  I have Jane Davenport's Beautiful Faces book and Fabulous Figures Book and I am trying to practice drawing women's faces and figures.  This isn't great but I'll do some more practice!!

The tea bag was primed with one coat of gesso first and then I drew the face with a pencil.  I used gouache and watercolor to color her and then used a black permanet pen, Prisma watercolor pencils and a white Posca pen for shadows and highlights.

I hope this gives you inspiration to do your own tea bag art and I'd love to see what you do!!
