Hi again my friends!
Today I'm back to show you what happens in the classroom during one of my new workshops - "The ARTifact", which is rich in texture and elements mixed-media collage on canvas.
When I was creating inspirational project for this class I was truly inspired by a bit cold, industrial look which I wanted to soften a bit with a touch of "feminine" factor. I think I can call it a success!
The sides of the canvas look almost like old stone walls or rusted metal - I love this effect and I'm so happy it is so easy to get using stencils and some of my Art Extravagance Texture Pastes! A bit of Heavy Black Gesso on the top and anything can happen!
Combination of different embellishments including paper flowers, metal elements (Mechanicals), some plain "ugly buttons" as I call them and a brush give the project really unique look and a lot of interesting details. But the real magic happens when we start adding colour...
This is the moment when my Art Ingredients Mica Powders really start to shine! When you want to get the best effects with this product simply apply it on the dark background - you will be amazed with the difference! Oh, the possibilities...
If you are interested in taking this class - have a look in my Live Classes section of the blog.

Finn, how did you get the light, "star", streaks? Do you use a light color like silver??? I've been meaning to ask you about this effect. Same as the effect on your blog photo?
