Mona Lisa Portrait



Over the weekend I completed this Portrait of "Mona Lisa". I tried to do an entire portrait without any daisies....... I can't believe I did it!! I feel confident I will be able to achieve a masculine illustration of boys and men now too(O: This original is available now in my Etsy Shop it's also available in a Print too!

    Oh, that Mona!!! I must say I've never seen a zentangled version - but I think DaVinci would be thrilled to see your creativity, Rebecca! She's terrific!!! Hugs, Terri xoxoxo

    I really must get to see the original one day... It's ridiculous, Paris is so close yet I've never really 'done' the City. Passed through it and visited on business and been up the Eifel Tower but that's it! Great interpretation Rebecca. Mona would certainly smile!!

    Rebecca;
    Wow! You are so good at these! You have captured her perfectly. It is hard not to doodle without daisies isn't it? LOL. How long did this take you? It's beautiful, really!

    I never would have thought that there were masculine and feminine filling marks. Now I know.

    Your Mona is simply stunning, Rebecca. Even without daisies, she's still undoubtably "totally you." Your work just grabs me and makes me want to see more...and more!

India

Meet India, she is such a treasure! I made from a tea cup I brought back from India last year. She sits 6 1/2 inches tall. The base she sits on is a beautiful square plate I found in Crate & Barrel that matched the tea cup perfectly. India has been embellished with fabrics I also brought back with me. Her hair is a combination of wool and acrylic fibers and she is jeweled with brass accents. India has henna patterns on the souls of her feet and around the tops of her arms and sits in this peaceful position as she meditates. She's waiting to sit in your home and bring you peace.

Meet Mable, she's trying her best to keep her skin glowing. She believes in nourishing her body from the inside out but once a week a good facial mask and cucumbers on her eyes make all the difference in the world. She stand 8 inches tall and would love to sit on the side of your tub or on your dresser. She could spend hours in the bathroom! * Mable is an original one of a kind decorative Art Doll and not meant to be played with as a toy.
