Life is a Beach for Art and Soul December Mood Board

Time for my latest project  as Ambassador for

Art and Soul Studio over at their Blog.

It's a very Tropical Mood Board for December 

as we are in our Summer Season in Oz

 and it depicts just that! 

The heading says it all. 

I started by adding Gesso to my 5"x 7" canvas

then crumpled up tissue paper for texture.

and DecoArt White Crackle Paint,

 adding colour

with Art /Alchemy Emerald Green/Mermaid Sparkle

and Glitter Gold Colour Craft Lustre Powder

Now to add my sea shells

Nice variety to choose from here.

Cut the mesh bag and thought it only right that

I would use a portion to help add more texture

and painted part of it with

Art Alchemy Gold Rush with a baby wipe.

Now to add those sea shells and some Calcined Bauxite

Then some painting,waxing -

pearls, mica flakes, beads and prills.

and a few close ups

finishing with the required sentiment word (Life)

from Inkadankado

I know December is a busy month and it would be

fabulous if you can join our   Art and Soul December Challenge.
