Mini Seascape





Hi Friends

Sharing a small seascape with you today, I do love how this has turned out.....




 I have used a big Jar lid as my substrate .....just goes to show anything can be your canvas :) 

After two coats of Gesso and texture using grainy paste and cheese cloth, I created my seascape with some seashells, found objects and clay embellishments...... there are various layers of gesso, cheese cloth, grainy paste, Acrylic inks , dry brushing and alcohol inks here.....


using various color sprays and dry brushing with white Gesso .......










My final layers were Alcohol Splash from Itsy Bitsy  , spray with Alcohol to move the colors so that the contrast from white dry brushed layers is more as the darker color settles in the deep areas. 

Have sealed the back with thick cardboard from the back, this can be used as a big fridge magnet or fix a hook and this can beautify any part of your home....do hope you like it .....
