Eye See Change

                    Field guides are great for inspiration!  Last week at the library
                 I checked out one on moths.  Moths are great symbols for change and 
                 transformation.  Scratching out a rough sketch of the girl 
                 I added the moths over her eyes.  It just wasn't working. 
                 The acrylic paint detailing wasn't right on the wings and the color
                 did not stand out the way I envisioned. In the end the moths 
                 were decoupaged.   This was a fun experiment.  
                 Acrylics work well with pastel.
Watching Katy Perry videos
while doing this.  Her style influenced the hair and lips, don't cha think?
