''Explore'' - DT Mixed Media Canvas for Lindy's Stamp Gang with a VIDEO TUTORIAL

Hello mixed media’s fans!

Today I'm up on the Lindy's Stamp Gang blog and I’m going to show you how I made a canvas using several Starbursts and Flat Sprays as well as Embossing Powder from Lindy’s.

I started by covering my canvas with black gesso. When this had dried, I applied black modeling paste through a stencil and because I wanted to give it, even more, texture I heat embossed the pattern with ”Angel Wings Mauve” embossing powder.

The shimmer really stands out on the black background.

Then, I gave all the embellishments a coat of black gesso.

I glued down all the embellishments. Then, I mixed black gesso
and art stones with soft gloss gel and applied it on the canvas to create more texture.

When everything was dry I highlighted some spots with white gesso, this helps make the patterns and shapes stand out.

I used the sprays Pop Rock Purple, Tea Pot Purple, Prima Donna Purple and Hydrangea Blue to add color to the canvas.

To finish, I made some splatters with White Acrylic Artists Ink. 

Here are some close-ups so you can see the details.

I have also made a video tutorial with the procedure.
