As many of you know, I have an art crush on the amazing Eileen Sorg and her mixed media magical artwork. From the first time I saw her work, years ago at the Edmonds Arts Festival, I was in love with it.
Eileen works in ink, watercolor and color pencil and I take about two workshops with her every year. I love her process but only seem to do it when I am in her workshops. That might change though as this weekend, after another one of Eileen's workshops, I find myself falling in love with the process all over again.
Here is my step by step of the work. I'm not finished but I will post this piece when I get the color pencil completed. What a fun project. Thank you Eileen!
