Hello,
February is upon us, and with it, Valentine's Day, the holiday of love. It was the perfect time for me to incorporate a subtle touch of this occasion into the project. That's why the heart became the focal point of the work, around which I built the entire composition.
The project was created using mixed media techniques using a new product from Finnabair. I used a mix of various mold elements, which offer truly enormous possibilities for building texture and depth. I love multi-layered work that can be explored step by step, and these products are perfect for that.
For the coloring, I used Liquid Acrylic Paints in quite vibrant shades. Finally, I gently toned them down with white gesso to give the whole thing character. As usual, I also included some browns, as that's where I feel most comfortable and enjoy creating.
If you'd like to see exactly how this heart and the entire composition were created, check out the YouTube tutorial. I show you the entire process step by step. The description also includes links to the products used in the project, which you can find at the Mix Media Place store.
Hugs,
Kasia Salmanowicz
