Highland Stag - Tutorial

Image
Hello - I'm here today with a step by step tutorial for you. Today I've used the Large Deer from Lavinia Stamps to create an atmospheric mountain scene - here goes I drew a rough plan on scrap paper of how I wanted my scene to look. This gives me an idea of where to add my stamps and sponge my mountains. On a piece of white card stock I placed a post it note moon. With a speedball brayer I added Smoky Slate (pale gray) ink to the top and the bottom covering the moon. With a torn piece of post it note I began to sponge my background. Using more post it notes and my drawing as a guide I built up my mountain background. This is all done with the Smoky Slate ink pad. I then ripped more post it notes and created a rocky out crop in the foreground. For this I used Basic Black ink. Remove all the post it note masks. Some trees were added again using Basic Black ink. Stamp a few again before re inking to create some perspective. The stag was stamped on top...
