Christmas Wishes

Merry Christmas to all my

of meeting new friends along the way!

So eat, drink & be merry!

Cherish time spent with loved ones

are so many thinks I want to try

Merry Christmas Everyone. X

Bottom of the Sea Art Journal Page

I started this page in June. It has been

re-worked 5 times. I finally got it how I wanted it

and then I added my chosen wording in black

stamping and it looked awful!

The words were too black and ruined the

feel I wanted for the piece. So I had to get out

some acrylic paint and cover it all up.

Now I can not get it back to the colour that it was :(

But, I am happy enough to call this DONE!

 

 

I applied home made texture paste through the

CW branches stencil at the top left to look like seaweed.

Then bottom right through my Clarity Stamps stencil Pods

to resemble Sea Anemones. I coloured them with Inka Gold

in Turquoise & greens. This made it too shiny.

 

So I applied some acrylic paint first & them over painted

most of the textured sections with Silks Acrylic Glazes.

It looked fabulous (until the stamping)

 

I ended up painting dark blue & then re- applying

Silks & Primary elements over the top.

My fish & crab are coloured with Inktense Pencils.

I added sequins to give shimmery bubbles to the water

and computer generated the words which are more suited

to the overall tranquil feeling I wanted for this piece.
