Scrap Made in Touraine: Soul Whisper - Mixed media panel for Finnabair

samedi 31 août 2024

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm on Finnabair's blog with a new mixed-media canvas board inspired by the monthly theme: Creatures of the Night.

I cut the Star Menagerie paper from the Stargazer collection to the canvas size and used Soft Matte Gel to glue it. Next, I covered the edges with Paper Paste. When dry, I painted the Paper Paste with different Liquid Acrylic paints to obtain the background colors of the photo.

I covered the cogs and the chains with Rust Effect Paste. When the paste was dry, I highlighted the details with the Old Silver wax.

I primed the light bulbs with White Heavy Gesso and covered their thread with the Rust effect Paste. Next, I covered the light bulbs with White Pearl wax and highlighted the filaments with the Honey wax.

I primed the Grungy Frame with Black Heavy Gesso and highlighted the detail with the White Pearl wax.
I added a small skull at the top of the frame. I primed the skull with White gesso and highlighted the details with watered down Ink Black liquid acrylic paint.
