Craft Barn Alpha Challenge Letter N

I really appreciate you all stopping by and having a closer look at my pages.  Thank you to everyone who takes the time to leave me a comment.

The Craft Barn Alpha Challenge can be found here, its well worth a look at all the other entries past and present, there is a wealth of great inspirational work out there.

Time has flown by, I've missed the deadline for the letter L, but managed to tackle this weeks new letter N today.  No faffing , no procrastinating just straight in with my design idea.

NONES : Prayers at 3pm.   


I painted the background in a fawn colour.  I used black gesso to stencil the clock and painted in the silhouette.  There is obviously a theme going on;  thought I'd still share my take on the letter L with you, you'll see what I mean :) .

Leadlights - Decorative windows made with clear glass supported in lead canes; 
a more simple version of the coloured Stained Glass windows.

The blue and green is supposed to be the sky and trees through the clear glass :)

  11. Hi Lou, thanks for visiting me! That silhouette is amazing, I couldn't paint one that looked human! The window is stunning too and clever to pick an L word that goes with the window.
