Steampunk mini canvas

hello there!

I'm back today with a little mini canvas, steampunk style. My favourite!
I've used some mitform castings, a resin frame and a wooden word: Awesome. From the random arts shop. And some little bits and pieces from my stash.

Don't you just love that squid!!! 

I started to colour my mini canvas with crackle paint aged mahogoy. I had this in my stash. Make sure you put a thick layer is you want bigger cracks. (yes i know how this sounds) Remember, the more paint, the bigger the cracks.

i let this dry over night as using a heat tool doesn't work. Then i went in with some lindy's sprays. I used some purple and red tones. To match the mahogony.

Then it was time to colour the decoration pieces. First i covered everything with black gesso. This, to make everything the same colour and give more depth. Then i sprayed everything with the same sprays and used some waxes to accent the reliëfs and make it a bit more shiny.
Now it's time to glue everything down. I use my glue gun. But if you are more patiënt (:P) you can use matt medium for example.

Before i glue it down i Always lay everything down to check where exactly i want it. After i everything was glued down, i went back in with some wax to make some areas like the edges stand out a bit more. And this is the end result!

    About Me

    Hellooooo Everyone...

    I was bought up as a farm girl in rural NSW, but now live in a small coastal village called Cooloola Cove in QLD. I have always been a creative person and have a Diploma of Multimedia and Graphic Design. I have wanted to blend that with Mixed Media, which I have been doing since about 2015...I love to use dimension, texture and layers of elements to make my creations, it’s all about experimenting and exploring with products and what
    they can do.....
