Stencil Exercise

I love the look of woodcuts, etching and stencils, so have played around this morning with creating a rough stencil in Art Rage and Photoshop, and then experimented with how to present it.

It was quite time consuming cleaning up the graphic and working out what to leave and what to keep.

It has definite possibilities methinks.

Another one.....

And again. I like the washed out canvas finish and the rough blocking in of colours elsewhere.

I will go back in and do another stencil for cloud detail behind.
