Jill McDowell and Two 6" x 6" Stencils -- PRESSED LEAVES and HERON


Artist Jill McDowell has been busy with her stencil collection!

The star of today's show is the image below -- an altered photo transfer in Jill's art journal.  A stunning image!





Below is the original photo --





What an amazing transformation!  Among the StencilGirl stencils that Jill used in making her magic is my 6" x 6" Pressed Leaves.

Jill used the same stencil in creating the art below --





Not only do I love the two-page journal spread above, but also, the quote has me nodding my head and smiling!

The Pressed Leaves stencil looks like this --





Moving forward ... I have more of Jill's artwork to display!



Other StencilGirl stencils were the art tools Jill used in creating most of the "Inky Birds" above; I'm delighted that for the bottom image, she chose my 6" x 6" stencil Heron. 

Above -- Step One:  Jill held onto the stencil with one hand and with the other, she used the textured bottom of a flip-flop scandal as a rubber stamp.  

And when Jill lifted off the stencil, she was left with the stunning image below!


Above -- Results!

The 6" x 6" Heron stencil looks like this --





Handfuls of thanks to Jill McDowell for letting me use her artwork in today's post!

And my thanks, also, to you for stopping here today!
