Hi all,
A couple of things to report on, a new mixed media canvas and a fantastic Steampunk workshop yesterday.
I was at the Stamp Attic in Wantage yesterday holding my Steampunk secret book workshop, and just had share some pictures of the finished pieces, they turned out amazing!
A big hello to everyone on the workshop and to Wendy and her staff for looking after us so well.
Ps… thanks for the lovely cake!
Now on to the new Mixed media canvas….warning, I have used pink and reached out for my feminine side!! lol
Lots of texture has been added to the canvas before painting with a mix of Decoart Tradition's and Americana acrylic paint.
Finally my Sizzix Big Shot came out to play, I cut the letters from 300 gsm card with the TH Typeset die and the flourish was cut from Grungeboard using the TH Elegant Flourishes.
Inspiration for this canvas came from Decoart.
Have a good day,
Andy
Both projects are fab Andy !

ReplyDeleteAndy, thanks for a great workshop! Your tips and tricks are just great, and I have bought a BIG roll of masking tape. I finished off the inside of the secret drawer with a printed page using the serif steampunk CraftArtist disks. Finally used them!
ReplyDeleteLooking forward to the next time! Thanks again Ruth

Thanks everyone, your comments are really appreciated and keep me going!
ReplyDeleteAndy, as usual fabulous videos! I can't get enough of them. You teach me something new each time I watch them over and over again!!! I have another question. After I do a background of the alcohol ink, can I use my acrylic paint to paint a floral design over the alcohol background? Thanks Andy and keep sending the great lessons! Hugs Vicki
ReplyDeleteYes Vicki you can as Acrylic is water based and will not react with the dried ink
