Mixed Media Project

Well, I've finally done it! My first mixed media entry in my art book. I have been inspired by the work of Rach0013. You can see her videos on You Tube. For ages I had been wanting to work in this format, but couldn't understand quite how to get that deep, layered effect. Her video was very clear on the techniques and products used, and was very helpful.

I have used both clear and white gesso, Art Culture acrylic paints, Lumiere paint (halo blue gold), Fern Gully stamp, pages from an old book: Acts of the Victorian Parliament, and serviettes. The quote is from Henry Ford. It is a very meaningful quote for me about the power of positive thinking.
