ThreeMuses: Numbers

I actually did my first transfer tutorial. The tutorial was rubbing with watercolor pencils and then using glue/water mix to transfer. I used a number stencil I had..so you can vaguely see a backward 3 and 4 toward the bottom. Loved the technique.

Lovely piece, Amy! Great idea to use those instructions to draw numbers, and the background with the transferred numbers works very well here.

Love your little pierrot and pierette - they look as if numbers scare them though, don't they?!
