AB: GA Series - Person with an Animal

This is the fourth installment of our collaborative Gothic arch book series. See where it started.

Make a Gothic arch using the template provided below. Your Gothic arch can be made in any art style, but must include a person with an animal. The person can be young, old, male, female or neutral. Any kind of animal goes, from butterflies to bears. The front of the arch needs to be fully arted up, while the back is to be minimally decorated (patterned paper, monoprint, color wash, etc.) and have your signature.

We'll be using the same template provided in the previous swap:

Gothic arch template

The printer settings (Windows PC) you use should be:

Paper size 8.5"x11"
Photo size 4"x6"
Shrink to fit

This will give you an almost 4"x5.5" Gothic arch when you print it. Your Gothic arch needs to be cut out of something sturdy such as Bristol or watercolor paper or recycled cardboard packaging (thin, not corrugated).

If you are unable to print a template for yourself, message me and I will mail you one. Please check that you are able to make a proper sized arch before the swap gets underway.

When you are done, send your arch protected in a notecard or folded piece of cardstock inside an envelope.
