Mixed Media Painting - French Connection

Created on hot press watercolour paper with Neo Colour 2s, acrylic paint and inks.  The little corset was drawn and painted first, then attached to the fashion definition paper, where the stand was drawn.  The background was painted with Neo 2's, and stamped.  A border was made using the same fashion definition paper as the centre, and charcoal pencil was used to create a shadow effect in various places.  This painting was recorded for You Tube.  Here's the link: http://youtu.be/cqvawkrRAB4
