Girl reading

I attended a workshop at the Guild which was led by Lorraine Mckay. I covered the drum board the night before and gave it a wooden floorboards look using a knife and brushing it with a wash of brown/orange foodcolour. The most difficult parts were the hands and the face. You can see from the photo that she even has teeth inside her mouth. She doesn't quite have the right expression on her face but I thoroughly enjoyed the workshop and Lorraine made it look so easy. I have picked up plenty of tips which I'm sure will come in very useful.
