Hello my friends!
Deco Art is having another opportunity to create and possibly win a prize pack valued at $120.00.
The Design team created some great projects to get things started….. here is mine.
I started this piece using an 8×8 mdf board and put down book pages with Media Matte Medium
Then using Colbalt Turquoise and titanium white fluid acrylic I painted a circle and then painted white around it. Sprayed water on it and picked up the water with a paper towel. That is what gives it that speckled effect. Then with raw umber antiquing cream I aged the background.
I then found a royalty free image of a deer and went to photo shop and created this design. I reversed it, for the image transfer. printed it out on regular printer paper using and ink jet.
I cut my design apart and the outer design I turned it over and used my image transfer medium (follow the directions) I let it dry for an hour.
Once dry using a spray bottle, I wet the paper and began rubbing the paper away
This step takes some time, so be patient.
I cut the dear out and used my matte medium to put it down.
Using blue green light fluid acrylic and Americana avocado and a fine brush and started painting the pine
Using Media fluid acrylics I painted the flowers
Titanium white and carbon black for high lights, dots, and vines.
Using the Deco Art pixelated stencil and black gesso to add just a little bit of texture.
You can check out all the projects and so much more on the Deco Art Media Blog and facebook page. Get your creative juices flowing and enter the challenge HERE .
