Stampendous Sneak Peek – Day 7

Posted on by JenniferDove
This is the piece that made the front cover of the Stampendous catalog.  I was shocked and very very excited.   This piece actually spent quite a few hours in the trash can before making another attempt at it.   This is a painted canvas using acrylic paint and my airbrush and copics as well as a stencil from Dreamweavers.  Let me briefly take you through the steps.  Be sure and leave some love and finish along the hop for your chance to win.

I stamped my image (Jumbo Magnolia) on a stretched canvas.  Using acrylic paint I started painting within the lines of the flower. I stamped a second image on paper and cut out the leaves leaving the flower in tact.  I have now made a image mask.  Using my airbrush and homemade mask I airbrushed the leaves in.  I then stamped the image one more time and cut out the complete flower.  placing it on top on the whole flower and leaves I airbrushed the background.  I added a flourish using my dreamweaver stencil.

  8. I love magnolia flowers, and your painting is just beautiful. Love the airbrushed background, totally awesome. A real eye candy. Hugs.

  14. THE TRASH? I just don't know what to say—coming from the LEAST artistic person on the planet (my niece, at 3, produced better art than I did–she tried to make me feel better—it's nice, Aunt Sharon….). So sad. So, I hope that you are thankful that you are SO DARNED GIFTED!!!!! EEK, I love that painting. I hope that you love it now, too! GORGEOUS!

  16. Wow, that is so beautiful! I really wish I knew how to paint now! Congratulations on making the cover, that must be so exciting!

  25. This was such an incredible project. Can't believe you almost trashed it. We just adored what you did and were proud and happy to feature it on our cover!! Thanks so much for sharing your "how to" with everyone!

  26. Dang girl! You sure know how to create a stunner! That painting is truly beautiful! Congrats on making the catty cover, too!

  29. I can't even imagine creating such a piece of art–but I sure can enjoy seeing it! Perfect choice for the cover–congrats!

  36. You kill me woman! This is amazing. The way you color and to think what all you used and did. It is absolutely gorgeous. Congrats Girl..I am so happy for you getting a cover!!!

  39. This is so amazing! I mean you have really pushed my mind to the edge of stamped art, and I love it. I don't know if I could ever try this, but I adore your abilities to create this piece of art.
