Stencils are Fun!


One of my favorite fellow designers at StencilGirlProducts.com, Daniella Woolf, has created a 9"X12" stencil entitled Calligraphy -- which I have used many times.

Because I've been too lazy to follow my own advice for cleaning stencils after use with acrylic paints and other acrylic media, I've created a mixed-media patina on the original stencil ... and I like it so much, I've scanned it.  I plan to use it as an overlay or a background in future digital artwork.
And, you know, I'm tempted to cut up this particular stencil -- after ordering a replacement! -- and use it as part of a collage.
