Day of the Paintbrush

Well, it's a long long time since I last took part in a UKScrappers swap - but the challenge "take an old decorator's paint brush, stick a face on it, and decorate it Day of the Dead sugar skull style" was just too tempting to pass up!!

So here's an in progress pic:

(the skull was sculpted from air dry clay)














And here, after many hours doodling with my trusty Posca paint pens, is the end result:

This will go in the post this week, I hope his forever owner likes him and doesn't find him too creepy!

That is wow! Utterly stunning and I will treasure it. I hope you got as much pleasure from making it as I will from having it. A huge thank you Sarah.

Absolutely stunning Sarah :D LOVE his spiky 'do'! What a brilliant swap - my spoon one was my first UKS one in ages too. Must check their swaps more often :D
