Hello creative friends! Do you have a creative comfort zone? A style or look that you return to again and again because it makes your heart happy? For me that’s a steampunk project with found objects, gear, beautiful rich colours and of course, rust!
I started this project with a shaped base and added the gorgeous Chestnut Street decoupage paper. I used rust paste through a Finnabair stencil as it gives a really great look and texture.
I had two found items that I really wanted to incorporate- an old voltmeter and a radio tube. I built up some mould pieces and mechanicals as a base to place these items on.
Using acrylic paints and rust paste I added colour and texture to the different elements. Emerald was matched the decoupage paper perfectly and I used this to create areas of contrasting colour.
