Love - A mixed media project

Hi everyone, 

I want to share with you a mixed media project that I made for Art and soul studio Australia's blog

This is how I made it :

I applied Sand paste with a palette knife to a heart shaped canvas panel.

After it dried, I glued chipboard shapes, clay pieces and sea shells on to it. I used 3d gel medium for gluing them.

Next, I coated everything with heavy black gesso.

I colored the project with Art alchemy metallique paints and waxes. Added stickles and sequins as finishing touches.

That's all for now

Thank you for visiting, 

Take care,

Just be you - art journal

 

Hello to all of you, beautiful artistic souls, It's Libeeti Frenkel here, as a Guest Designer with my first project for Art & Soul Studio.

I was inspired by the current challenge - 'Use Red':

I decided to make an art journal spread, to express the message the older me would give to the younger me.

I've made a short video about the creative process:

The products that I've used:

7 Dots Studio - Writer's block tags and die cuts; Furtune teller 6x6 pad; Thoughts Keeper stamps.

Lindy's Gang - Guten Tag Teal shaker, Twany Turqouise Vintage spray, Candy Cane Red Gold embossing powder.

Ranger's Archival ink - vermillion, watering can, shadow gray, jet black.
Kaisercraft - texture stains clear stamp set.

Here're some close-ups:

I hope you liked my art journal spread.
'Till next time...

One of a kind-An art journal spread

Hi everyone,
I want to share with you an art journal spread that was inspired by Art and Soul studio's November mood board.

You can read about Art and Soul studio 's monthly challenge and prizes Here

Let's start our project:
I glued book pages in my journal with Gel medium. I also added pieces of different washi tapes.

Next, I applied modeling paste with a palette knife and also through a scribble text stencil
After that, I applied crackle paste in some  areas with a palette knife. I let it dry overnight.
Then, I applied acrylic colors of my choice with a brush and palette knife.

 Next I did a bit of background stamping with Ranger’s jet black Archival ink, added few black and white splatters.
Next I assembled my composition and glued it with gel medium.

That's it for today.

I hope you liked it.

Thank you for visiting

Take care and keep crafting.

Saadia Nawaz.
