Stand Tall – Canvas

First of all- thank you so much for your wonderful comments on my CHA Designer-Showcase in the post below! They made my day!

I am back from Lille in France but before I show you some photos from the show next, I share this canvas I made. It is actually part of my Über*Media Gesso class which now ended. I will reopen the sign ups in April/May I think – so if you are interested let me know :)

Supplies:

White Gesso, Black Gesso,  Eco Green Crafts Acrylic Paints, Punchinella, Posca Marker, White Signo Marker, Heidi Swapp Color Magic Banner, Tattered Angels Black Magic Glimmer Mist, Heidi Swapp – old – Chipboard Letters, Sakura Souffle Pen

I wanted the background to look crazy busy….it fits with what I wanted to say with this project.

I am totally back to Acrylic paints right now- I have discovered so many new techniques along with the many I knew already – I think it is time to plan the next Über*Media class ;) HINT HINT – LOL

Looking at this picture btw I realize that my hair is playing tricks on me – I discovered a LOT of grey and WHITE hair the last weeks. Excuse me??? How can this go right into white hair? Oh well…I guess I better get used to it ;) Funny enough when I was a kid I always wanted white hair…I thought it looked just so graceful…mmhh – yeah…not sure if I think this now for myself – LOL.

I’m getting chatty….everything to procrastinate the paperwork I have to do today ;) – so I better keep going. Wishing you an amazing day!

Nat

    I love this Nat! Awesome colors! :) I got my first grey hair when I was 23… and I have a lot more now, but luckily it hasn’t taken over completely yet… ;)

    Very cool! I love the way the black gesso pops off of that yummy painted background! Count me in on your next offering of Uber*Media Gesso class. I need to come to terms with that stuff. Right now me and gesso are kind of love/hate, so I figure I must not be utilizing it to it’s full potential. I know I will learn a ton in your class! :)
