Rust

This week we have an exciting new guest host – Gillian!  Gillian has chosen “rust” as your challenge this week – and has created this stunning piece especially for us.  This should be a fun challenge – you can interpret “rust” however you like – you might just use the colour rust somewhere in your art piece, or use some rusted paper, as per our mini tutorial on the forum – or any other rusted piece you have created, found etc.  It’s up to you and your imagination.  Thanks for being a guest host, Gillian, and for this fun challenge. I’m sure everyne is going to love this!

    It is a conincidence that Gillian and I both chose to do bird related things. Both pieces are entirely different though 🙂 Diane

    Deze week een moeilijk onderwerp maar een leuke afwisseling met de andere onderwerpen.
    This week a tough theme but it´s nice to work with something different.

    Mijn 4×4 kaart kun je hier bekijken,
