Let's Get Spooky! - Mixed media canvas for Finnabair

Hello Sweeties,
Today I'm up on Finnabair's blog with a mixed-media canvas inspired by the monthly theme: Let's Get Spooky!

As the base for the background, I decided to use the Solar tissue paper. I used the Soft Gloss Gel to glue on the canvas. Then, I added a very thin layer of Heavy White Gesso as I wanted to see the pattern afterward. I added a design with the Rocket Science stencil and 3D Gloss Gel.

When everything was completely dry, I painted the background with Liquid Acrylic paints in Nude, Burnt Sienna, and Ink Black to match the colors of the photo.

I primed the bat wings with Heavy Black Gesso and the other resin elements with Heavy White Gesso.   

I painted the skull and the bones with the same Liquid Acrylic I used for the background. To alter the chains, I used the Rust Effect Paste set and some Old Silver wax.

I added some Vintage Silk wax to highlight the details of the bat's wings and the horns of the mountain sheep.
