Does your life ever just get CRAZY busy? (If I knew how to insert smiley faces, I would insert the stressed one here! lol)
So, what is the best stress relief? Playing with ink and rubber, of course. How can you look at the little bird, sitting on his (her?) house and not just smile and relax?
After coloring the image with Copic markers (the absolute best marker to get shading like this!) I cut a freehand reverse mask and created the sky using B00 Frost Blue and my Copic airbrush system. I like the look of just part of the sky showing like this. To finish the image I used my tracing wheel and created a *frame*.
You should be able to click on the image to see a larger version.
You can find Copic markers at Eclectic Paperie and Ellen's Store! Links to the stores listed over to the right.
I hope your day is stress free!
