I do love a stencil lol, and here’s my creation.

This is how I created this piece
Using different stencils and 3 colours

I kept to the same 3 Stencils but added some complimentary colours to get a nice contrast.

Then add my feature using one of my own Stencils Skellen. My faces are designed to either add an outline of a face or you can
Join up the lines to get full features as I have done here.

I reversed the stencil to give me my second face and added a few details. I chose to not add colour to the face as I liked the background showing through
I also added a white flower to her non eye. (A hint of something to come maybe)
The acrylic paint I used is Dina Wakley for Ranger as well as her Scribble Sticks which I love. Black Archival ink.
Thanks for popping in.
Take care
