Life Book 2015 Bonus Lesson from Tamara Laporte

I finally had the time to work on this lesson by Tamara that she shared at the same time Jane Davenport gave us her fabulous lesson on drawing and painting whimsical girls.

Both artists are amazing; and both artists have their own style, so it was great to try both ways to draw the girls.

Tam shared a lesson from Life Book 2014 where she went in-depth and step-by-step on how to draw an angel.

I followed her step by step and this is what I created.  I think she came out very sweet!

I love the serene look she has.

I used Canson 11×15 watercolor paper, acrylics, watercolor crayons, graphite pencils, gesso, and Dylusions sprays on top of a few collage papers.

A close up of her face.  I added a few butterflies to her hair and shoulders.  I started out drawing flowers, but they turned into butterflies, LOL.

This is the close-up of her left wing.  I really liked the way the graphite pencil enhanced the feathers.

Go and sign up for Life Book 2015 – there is still time, and you will learn many, many different techniques!!

Thanks for visiting, and happy crafting!!
