A small canvas which i have used wax in this one. I also stamped into the hot wax, which i liked the result, quick and nice texture. I do not own a melting pot and applied the clear wax with my encaustic iron.
This is the other side of the wall.............They are now on about white washing it aand doing something else!!!
I did this last year in a friends dining room, they were very brave letting me loose with a paint brush on their walls!!
A jig saw swap i did 2 years ago, had it mounted on a tile and was looking a bit sorry for itself, so re vamped it onto a new canvas!
Have done a couple more canvas's this week, 8inspired by Tim Holtz inks. I started thus canvas with another project in mind but once you stat, you think of other ideas todo and this is the outcome.
Been playing with inks and new tecniquesand have created amongst other things, this canvas......Lots of different things going on, inks,blending,doodles and collage, may even wax over it yet, not sure
Recently been to France and this was one of the many pictures i took, love macro shots. More pics to upload later.
This was a domino i started a few months back and had put it to one side with some others i was not quite happy with. Well i have run out of domino's, so i decided to re use some of my older ones.
This one has alcohol inked background and the charms on the domino were part of a necklace that i dismantled and then glazed them onto the domino. As i have also run out of necklaces to hang the domino's i made a wire choker and added a few twists in it for decoration.
I bought this for less than a quid and then it was battered,red and grey.
First i sanded it down, painted it with textured paint in pale blue,painted grassy effect around the bottom, stuck on plastic like flowers and edged the roof with beads and inked edges and varnished with a matt varnish to finish..............just need to find the right sized bung for bottom,so monies will not fall out.
