Hello, hello!
This project began as just a piece of
cardboard! I had so much fun repurposing what some might consider as garbage
into something pretty.
I removed some of the outer layer of the
cardboard to reveal the bumps, and then I added a layer of gesso. From there, I
added a layer of stamping with Prima’s “Dot Grunge” designed by Finnabair… and
then sketched and painted a face. To add extra interest and texture to the
painting I also utilized Prima Flowers, seed beads, a small piece of lace cut
to size and Prima’s texture powder. I have really loved using the texture powder
in my paintings lately; I love the extra layer of *special* it adds. To use it,
I just painted on a layer of Art Alchemy acrylic paints. Then, while the paint
was still dry, I also brushed on some of the texture powder. The powder blends
right into the paint and dries beautifully.
I hope you have enjoyed the mixed media
repurposed cardboard girl today!
Until next time …
Until next time …
Cheers,
Cristin
