Had a play this weekend with a small 6 by 6 canvas I had. I woke up thinking about texture and hot gluing a bunch of items on a frame, gessoing over them and then added some alcohol inks.
Not sure I even LIKE this canvas, but it was a lot of fun messing with!
I think it looks sea like. But then also really strange!
I stared with a bare canvas and modge podged on some tissue paper. Then started hot gluing items down on top of a chippy.
Painted the whole thing white with gesso and after it dried, started dripping alcohol inks on it.
It was an interesting lesson on texture and the paint blending together. I do think I could always repaint with gesso and start again...which may happen at some point.
But, I am glad I got my paint on!
