Onion patterns1

This is a little smaller than A5 in size. I've used watercolour and black ink for the background and colour. On top has gone gold/copper/silver leaf as well as metallic acrylics and metallic ink to add embellishment.

To cap it all, I managed to sign it upside down at the top :: rolls eyes ::

I'm not sure that the black pen works now, but ... it's all a learning process! I'm going to try this again, but using watersoluble coloured pencils to outline the pattern before using watercolour ... and I'll think about the metallic leafing too ... this really was an experiment.
