'Are you there?'
This lady have painted and inked, ditto the screen. Background textured, stamped calligraphy in the same pink used to ink the lantern, shade the frame, then I 'washed' over the pink on top of the dried stamping to soften and blur it.
It might clearer and not so dark 'in real life' such a dark day here today that I could not get a decent photo of them
Oriental black and white image which I have painted and coloured.
The background has been textured and stamped, the 'frame' is with distressed embossing powder - then rubbed here and there.

great stuff lottie loads of nice details and arty touches
Have to agree with Z...nice details indeed.
you are using some lovely subtle images Lottie, they are well chosen for your pieces
They are lovely Lottie xxxx
Lovely - I like your artist touches to the images to make them unique. I like how the first one seems to be looking out of a window and the second one looks quite thoughtful.

I am glad you saw that LK cos I painted it to look like she had opened a screen to look out of a window - when it fact it was a 'flat' looking image with a see through screen - and I wanted it too look more solid.
In the other image - once I had cut away all the background to just focus on her face - it totally changed the look and mood - and now she looks like she is think hard or daydreaming about something. It had a huge difference colouring the 'grey/white' lilies and rose buds in her hair.
Thanks everyone for you kind comments
They are both gorgeous.
