It's getting cold in Cornwall and it's nice to remember the blues of the summer. Sparkly seas and tempting swims. You can keep some sunshine on your wall all year round with Cornish blues.
This one is a bit of a baby 'Kynance Light' a very popular print which sold out a few years ago. I've revisited the blues and turquoises but made a smaller print.
This is my sister in the sea and I did add her to one of the prints especially for her xx
So here we go as usual, don't forget to flip your image. Argh I've forgotten that a few times! Then begin by cutting everything out which will stay white.
Make your way through the colours light to dark cutting out what you want to keep of each colour as you go.
