Prose

Prose tag, quote from Henry David Thoreau
Here's my tag for this week. I used a quote from Henry David Thoreau that I found on the internet, while I was looking for inspirational quotes for a vision board. This little lady is dreaming big dreams, and imagining an exciting life, before she leaps confidently into action! I wanted a paler pallete, and a softness to this tag so I drew the image in pencil, went over with a black pen. (I love drawing with pen!) Then I coloured it with watercolour pencils, which I left dry. I'm pleased with the shading, and with the face.
Just wondering how long everyone spends on their tags? They are so detailed, creative and intricate! As I'm fitting this in with a part time art course, and a part time web design course I give myself an evening to make the tag, and that's it!

    Well done! Nice Spring time colors too! I don't spend tons of time on my tags-- usually have several going at once so maybe a half hour on one is all, but I work a little simpler than some!

    Inspirational words - great tag. Like you, I have limited time to spend on my tags, so mine are always pretty simple.
