GHOST RIDER 13

 This is my entry for the TAKE A WORD challenge this week.......the word is MEN. Yes, I know it's pink, that's just me being what my husband calls perverse! I mean what other colour would you use for MEN?

 I found this picture in my Dads motoring magazine, there was a article on motoring art. Can you see the rider has a skull face? Well, that settled it, just had to be used!

I realised this morning that I have left ALL my white pens in Almaty so I decided to use some gesso on a thin brush around the letters.......I like the ghostly effect!

Will leave you with 3 things I discovered today:
it's not a good idea to take a white wash out of the washing machine after working with black paint...gggrrrrh
if I put the lid back on the gesso pot completely I can't get it off again......gggrrrh
and it's too cold to take pictures outside bbbbrrrhhhh!

Great layout! The gesso around the letters was a great idea, and they DO look ghostly. Thanks for sharing your talent!

So cool new page.
Absolutely stunning.

I believe pink is traditionally the colour for boys in Arab countries. So not so inapropriate. A really cool page!
