this parchment paper is described as an "antique" colour & is 250gms in weight. it is ideal for soft transparent types of imagery. once completed it could easily be back-lit for an effective presentation.


the iron was used to apply the sky colours, then wiped over very lightly with tissue whilst the wax was still molten. the light created is soft and warm. the landscape area was added with the iron and the tree created using the low heat stylus tool with the "wire brush head" tip fitted.
