AAE page 2 & 4x4 Friday B&W

This is a second page for the All About Eve challenge #7. I might have finished it too late. It is also an Inter team sketch challenge. The sketch was found by my teamie on this sketch blog.
Papers are from the same kit as my last piece, flower, Dunhelm. Rub ons Royal & Langnickel.

This is my entry for this weeks' 4x4 Friday challenge, Black & White.
I selected Art Nouveau as I love this style & it is so colourful but looks equally stunning in B&W. The picture is of one of the grand masters of the period,
Charles Rennie Macintosh.

What a lovely homage to your grandma, and to CRM!!! His work is fantastic! Nice to be "back" again, been a bit busy lately!

Your 4x4 is absolutely stunning! Love the fairy as a sort of contrast to the straight lines of the image!!

Interesting choice - like the juxtaposition of man and fairy. Your grandma page is adorable, soft buttery yellow, nanna sipping tea, a soft flower - oh I can just feel her! Lovely page!
