Technique quilling allows needlewomen to show all their imagination. As a result of simple manipulations, paper strips are transformed into spiral blanks from which volumetric ones can be made crafts and paintings. And if you combine several techniques (quilling, contour quilling and applique), you will get a very beautiful panel.
From this detailed master class you will learn the secrets of making the painting “Forest Fairy”.
To work, you need to collect the following set of materials and tools:
  • - a sheet of white cardboard;
  • - graphic drawing of a girl in profile;
  • - a sheet of golden paper;
  • - scissors;
  • - a piece of black cardboard;
  • - stripes for quilling of different shades;
  • - a tube of PVA glue;
  • - wooden skewer;
  • - frame.

Three techniques will be used in the work: regular applique, quilling and contour quilling.
As a base, you can use a sheet of ordinary white cardboard. You will also need a profile picture of the girl. You can find it online and print it out on a piece of paper.

Now move on to making the hair. They will be unusual, formed from quilling elements.
Choose multi-colored stripes. Make a teardrop-shaped piece from a piece of strip and glue it to the base (this is a contour quilling technique in which the strips are glued with the end side). Fill the middle of each drop with other smaller elements. To make them, you need to wind the strips onto a wooden stick, and form different elements from the resulting spirals.

If you are not used to such brightness, then create images in white or black colors. They turn out to be more restrained, but just as gorgeous.

    I am always dissatisfied with the manufacturing technique in master classes. everything is almost thoroughly right there. I even repeated the sketch, everything is the same as in the source!
