Dream Without Fear by Martina Stoycheva

Hello everyone and Happy New Year!

It`s time for new beginnings, new projects and new ideas.

I created a canvas as my first inspiration this month in warm brown, combined with copper accents. 

To create a simple composition, I used some castings, Mechanicals and various sizes of mélange pebbles. As a base, I glued part of Romantica decorative rice paper with Soft Matte Gel.

My finishing touches as always are dry brushing and sponge dabbing with gesso.

I wish you a happy year and endless inspiration!

Hugs, Martina.

Time window by Kasia Salmanowicz

Hello,

I welcome you in the New Year. Time passes, and brings changes and new experiences. In my first project in January, I wanted to emphasize this passage of time... that's why you will find clock faces on the window-shaped base. I invite you to a video tutorial where you can see all the details step by step.

At the beginning, I glued two layers of my HDF base and painted the whole base with white gesso. Then I chose beautiful clay elements from Finnabair moulds. I also used metal accessories such as twigs and flowers.

I glued everything with Heavy Body Gel and after thorough drying, I coloured it with 4 colours of paints from the Liquid Acrylic Paint series. To add shine, I used Golden Dragon paste with beautiful foil particles and the addition of glitter. The whole is heavily bleached with white gesso.

Happy New Year,

Kasia Salmanowicz
