Canvas "Just Smile" by Olya Kravets

Hello lovely creative friends! Today I'd like to share with you my new mixed media canvas with positive mood! This time I decided to combine light and shadow and focus on contrasts. I hope to inspire you with this.


I started the project with an interesting and beautiful Tissue Paper. This will make the background more original. I glued it with Soft Gel. I added a pattern to the top of the canvas with Texture paste  and painted it with my favorite Impasto Paints. Mixed dark blue and purple shades.




Then I painted decor elements of the composition with Black Gesso. Here are moulds and metal elements, I love various layers. When everything dried I created a composition and enjoyed the process: this is my favorite part! Now I can begin to paint. I took Metallic Acrylic Paints of blue and violet-pink hues too and mixed them directly on the elements. Then I added the last layer: Waxes. There are also several shades and I finished everything with Old Silver Wax.





You can add a little more playfulness with Art Ingredients. My favorites are Art Stones and Glitter. I stick them on Soft Gel. A few more stones and all my love for Finnabair products here.

I invite you to watch my video tutorial to see the whole process of creating my project. Enjoy!
