Using a copy of one of my own Citra Solv altered papers as the base, I reverse painted an elephant, and whimsical plant life around him using gesso and paint.  I added shading with my Derwent Inktense pencils, and did detail work with an ink pen.

It is fun to just let my imagination have its way once in awhile!

    Beautiful! Every time I see one of your posts on this topic I tell myself that I must try the citra solv thing some time and also do more reverse painting.
