Skate to work - Mixed media canvas for Dusty Attic DT

Hello Sweeties,

Today I'm up on Dusty Attic's blog with a mixed canvas.

To begin I added a design with Modeling paste and a stencil. When dry, I painted the canvas with a Cobalt Blue Impasto. 

I primed all the chipboard and the metallic flowers with white gesso. Next, I mixed red, yellow, and gold paints to obtain a dark yellow that I used to paint the chipboard and the flowers. 

I dry-brushed the leftover of the orange paint I had made to highlight the design, then Firebird wax. 

When everything was glued to my liking, I dry-brushed some white paint over the embellishments. 

Next, I added a brown blue wax to the Wildflower #5 to remind the blue of the background. I added Gold and Firebird waxes on the other chipboard. 

To finish, I added some glitter.
