Dragons

Created for the Sunday Postcard Challenge, where the theme is Dragons.  The background uses a mix of Golden Fluid Acrylics in Green Gold, Burnt Umber Light and Jenkins Green.  This was stamped with a script (Tim Holz) and Gears (Oxford Impressions) in Timber Brown.  The image was found on google and I added varius watch parts to create a Steampunk effect.

    Quick question - do you have a laser printer? If not, how do you make sure your inkjet prints don'e smudge?
    Thanks, Hev x

    1. I use an inkjet printer and print onto matt photo paper which seems to retain the ink better than regular copier paper.

  7. I was thinking of painting a dragon myself, in the next day or two, in light of Chinese New Year... But I never envisioned one in STEAMPUNK!! This is really great, and I love how you've put together this postcard! ~tina
