Final page for round robin

The final page in the final book in this round robin was to have a page using a colour that nobody else had used in the book. I didn't fancy orange or yellow, so I went for charcoal!!!


I painted the pages with 2 coats of Golden micaceous iron oxide, then stamped and edged with Galaxy Gold Brilliance ink, and added the embellishments. There is a surprise for the owner under the larger panel.

I have really enjoyed this swap, and seeing all the work that others have done in the books. I hope all the owners like the books they get back at the end of the swap!

  1. Beautiful work. I think people often shy away from charcoal/ greys and blacks, even as backgrounds, but I love them. You've certainly used them to great effect. So glad you've enjoyed your first AB RR - bet you'll be signing up for more :>
