Monster Family
Mila wants to be Queen of the Monsters when she grows up. What can I say? Do you sense the Halloween influence at work here? Since I found the idea an engaging one, I sketched, then embroidered my version of her goal. I used some diluted acrylic paint and lots of coffee to age it, then a Pigma micron pen for the "Queen of the Monsters." Think a mat and frame should finish this fun project. When I showed it to Miss Mila while I was working on it, she thought it was her family: Papa, Mama, Mila, and Max.
Now, I've got to make myself finish that last Halloween quilt which for various reasons has failed to call me to work on it.

ReplyDeleteThanks, Angie! I got a shadow box from Michael's (50% off, couldn't even use the coupon) which has worked pretty well.
ReplyDeleteShelina, I didn't intend for it to be a family, but Mila placed everyone so quickly!
ACey, it was fun...but I'm to limited in my skills for that award!
