I made this little number this week to submit for an exhibition that's part of the Westport Arts Festival. Fingers crossed she gets in! I used hardboard as a base, then stuck down a photocopy from a page of a book, once dry i painted over some stained varnish to give it that wooden'y effect, then started drawing and painting over it! :) was fun! had to wait a long time for the varnish to dry which was the only downside ;)
