Once upon a time....

Face no.16 of my 29 Faces for May
PRINCE GRUMPY
This is the final page in my altered board book, so I thought I'd use it for one of my faces...
I used guache paints neat onto the collage base..
He looked grumpy...but also Regal some how :S
So I gave him a crown of gold with ermine(pearly stuff) trim.
All the fairytales I ever read focussed on the beautiful, hard done by, Princess...but what about all those poor young Princes? They had to go through all kinds of crappiness! No wonder he looks Grumpy!
I am linking this page to Dawn's Journal Journeys, themed this month "Once upon a time"
Enjoy :D XXX
