Here's an up close of the paint treatment I'm doing...
I just love the crackle effect. I'm using a different brand crackle medium, and I don't think I like it as much as I like the Folk Art brand, but it's what I have... so I'm using it....
This lady is probably one of my favorites...
Her nose was already broke... so I painted around it, and left it to look like it had broke off years ago. I also added some ink to this to dirty it up a bit.
So..... as the saying goes......
I'm still working on these... I tried painting one green and it just didn't look right, so they're either going to be white or cream-sand colored. And a few got the stone treatment. Waiting for the paint to dry in between coats has been the hardest part.
So..... as the saying goes......
Until Next Time....
You are so creativ! I love the finish and colour!

I like it very much how the heads look, Katie. I also love the crackle effect. You have so great ideas :-)
ReplyDeleteI love these- especially the one with the broken nose! What if you put the head on some type of pedestal base like this:

or even just a square base of wood? Like this:

but not so huge- just a small square that would still fit on top of your column?
You have such great ideas Katie!
