product description workshop info video + techniques Explore color, freedom, and expressive mark-making when you PLAY with Traci Bautista’s latest stencil collection SOULFUL SCRIBBLES. These stencils were created from a recent body of abstract mixed media artwork that includes colorful scribbles, organic patterns, and wild mark-making. Now you can incorporate these marks into your very own work using the stencil collection. These stencils can be used whole or cut into pieces {think rectangles, squares or event circles} to create unlimited designs. They are perfect to combine with Traci’s other StencilGirl collections like the Deconstructed Florals to create a juxtaposed “graffiti” background that combines soft flowy lines of florals mixed with the wildness and unstructured lines of scribbles. The stencils are perfect for layering on top of each other to create additional abstract designs. Or just use a small section to add a bit of contrast over the background. All Traci’s stencils can be used in a variety of art projects including, art journaling, sketchbooks, art quilting, ceramics/pottery, handmade cards, or mixed media projects. Combine them to create beautiful layers using your favorite printmaking substrate like plexiglas, gel plates, plastic freezer bags or Dura-lar to create bold, expressive art journal pages, art quilts or collage papers.
