zen

Today's prompt: zen
I started by using that awesome mat I used the other day on the gelli plate as a stamp and colored it with inktense pencils. 


But this was too vibrant so I added a layer of white acrlylic paint to tune it down a bit


When googling zen I saw a lot of pictures with circles, I think it's because a circle is endless, so I added some circles


Still too bright for my likings, so I added a layer of tissuepaper and some pearlescent green acrylic paint, now the colors were muted down while keeping a lot of interest. Finally I glued this buddha sticker on a gelli print and gave it a bit of character with black acrylic paint, added some ink around the edges of the card and added this epoxy zen sticker.


Namaste
