Technique:
1) Arrange all 3 paper pieces in a row and spray one color over
all 3 templates, drying with a heat gun and then moving the templates
between each new applied color (Olive, Malachite, Slate, Ruby
and Fire Opal). Leave areas of the paper WHITE - do not spray
so much that you cover the entire paper surfaces.
2) Squeeze Gold Leaf Metallic Flow on to non-porous surface and
place each painted paper piece face down into the flow 'scribbles'.
Dry and set aside.
3) Spray onto a non-porous surface the following colors but try
not to spray colors on top of each other (Slate, Fire Opal and
Tanzanite)- then press the 8 x 10" paper into paints. Dry
with a heat gun and then press the painted surface into it the
remaining paints again - then dry.
4) Scribble Metallic Flow generously onto non-porous surface
and press painted sheet into it.
5) Stamp four Elm Leaves in permanent ink on painted paper surface.
Dry with heat gun and cut out each leaf. Cut two of the leaves
in half at an angle.
6) Arrange the "geo" panels on black mounting board
and adhere them to the board. Do NOT put them down in the "order"
you sprayed them - mix them up so they don't "match up".
Arrange Elm Leaves as shown in above sample and adhere them to
the panel/board.
7) Highlight leaves with white colored pencil and other panel
edges/areas with remaining colored pencils.
8) Sign your art creation! |
