Learn to Laugh – Pascale B

Hello Sweeties,
Today I’m up on Dusty Attic blog with a new mixed media panel. I promise you this is the last one for this year 🙂

 I primed the canvas with white gesso. Next, I added randomly plaster and white crackle pastes. When dry, I colored the canvas with black gesso and black liquid acrylic paint. Finally, I added a design with the Ledger stencil. 


I primed all the chipboards with black gesso. I painted the Geo Panel #1with Sparkling Onyx Jewel paste. 


I painted the Gear Corners #2 and one of the Jumbo Cogs #2 with Silver Spoon metallic paint. When dry, I covered them with wax, then with black gesso. I allowed the gesso to dry, then remove it with a paper towel. For the chains and other cogs, I simply waxed them with Old Silver, Brushed Iron, or Old White. 


With a splatter stamp, I added some gilding glue which I covered with silver metallic flakes.


To finish, I added glitters, microbeads, and some Ice Crushed paste.
