Hello everyone!!!! Today I’m sharing a steampunk inspired mixed media canvas. I started out with a 6x6 canvas that I covered in tissue paper and then painted with black gesso. I then added several layers of Art Alchemy Wax. Added my found things and covered them in black gesso. After the gesso dried I starting painting the items with different paints from the metallique line. After I painted my found things I actually changed the color of the background from purple and pink to kind of a copper and gold. Once everything was dry I added some butterflies cut from Graphic 45’s Steampunk Debutante line. For a final Touch I splattered black paint and added glitter to the butterflies. Thanks for stopping by! -AR
A whimsical and odd look at the world of mixed media.
