Another letter to chose from for the altered dictionary challenge. For the letter "C" I chose Celestial. My pages are first painted with a mix of ultramarine blue and black acrylic paint, carefully leaving the chosen word clear. I then splashed the whole page with alcohol (isopropyl not my best vodka) and then splattered with a mixture of Lumiere paint colours to create a planet at the bottom of the page with flares radiating out. The comet was splashed on top of more alcohol and allowed to drip up the page toward the top right hand corner to create the tail.
I really enjoyed looking at everyone's letter last week and I am sorry I didn't get a chance to leave comments on them all due to time restrictions, but know that I loved them all and thank you for your encouraging comments on my first spread.
