Enjoy the Journey-Mini Mixed Media Canvas


This one really is a canvas, one of the really mini ones that comes with the stand from the Works, a lovely size, to be fair i don't mind what size they are i love making canvases!!

using the mdf balloon (i love this balloon) clouds and flowers from pretty gets gritty.


i just covered the canvas with a mixture of heavy body paste and glass glitter and scraped it all over the canvas, gave it a quick blast with the heat gun and arranged my mdf onto it , stuck down and then added a bit more of the paste mixture and gesso'd over all of the mdf pieces.


when it was all lovely and dry i had fun with the colours, spraying in on and then adding water and moving the colour around, drying in between colours so i didn't end up with a brown mess lol

don't be put off with the colouring, it can take a few layers before you are happy with the colours, don't panic and think you have ruined it just dry it and add some more until you are happy.


once dry i then gently brushed over with my finger adding some silver wax, just picking up the texture of the paste and glass glitter.

lastly i added my title.
