My third page done for my own Fairy Tale Theatre Round Robin book project I've been in with =seijikat and *evphaedrielle

Page 03: Shibumi and the Kitemaker

Annnnd here's another page that I intended to be something different than what I ended up with [yes, that elusive Snow Queen page that I can't seem to actually make despite the tries. I SWEAR I'll get that page down before my rounds are up, I swears it >F]

This is a fairy tale I got specifically because I love the artist [Marianna Mayer, told by Mercer Mayer] and I adore it. The color plates in the book are all so pretty and the story is grand. So while I was going through my stuff and happened upon the paperdoll I had stashed I knew she'd become the center to the entire thing [This particular paperdoll was the entire reason my page shifted from "Snow Queen" to "Shibumi" I love the striped pattern of her kimono like crazy and always have -that doll and the same kimono I used for the Nightingale have been with me for about 16 some years now and are finally going to use *_*]

Anywho, I used a mix of aged papers in the background, wood paper for the 'ground'. the Kite is butterfly shaped because it's sort of become my thing with all my papercraft it seems [if you haven't noticed] and the washi paper in the back was used to simulate wind. In the back, I've written in an exert from the fairy tale itself. Over all I think it came out okay, different as they all are, but it represents the Fairytale well enough so I'm good with it =3
