New Art



Okay, instead of posting this week, I have stayed up way too late doing fun things, particularly techniques in color.

The group is using Beryl Taylor's book Mixed Media Explorations to learn not only techniques but how to apply them. I am so inspired by all the pieces I see our group posting. Lots of talent out there.

This is Crayola Model Magic painted, inked, Pearl-xed and waxed. I used Lumiere and Dynaflo paints, different types of dye inks, and treasure waxes. Most pieces are stamped, but the word "ancient" and the face have been molded. Fun fun fun!
