Expose yourself to your deepest fear...........

Hello Friends

My second post for today, I have used DecoArt media fluid acrylics and Andy Skinner SunBurst Stencil and Andy Skinner Serendipity stencil for this Jim Morrison canvas.

the background is created with the Acrylic layering and Isopropanyl Alcohol, you can see this technique in this video by Andy Skinner.

I used Gel Medium between the last two layers of colors and removed the top layer of colors after stenciling the image from the face and surrounding area........

The image is stencilled using a hand -cut stencil borrowed from a dear friend Shilpi G Shivhare. Used DecoArt Media Gesso in Blackhttp://decoart.com/mixedmedia/gesso and the sentiment with the DecoArt Media Modeling paste in white for stenciling. Some sentiments are from Americana Inspiration stencil

Finished with paint splatters......

“Expose yourself to your deepest fear; after that, fear has no power, and the fear of freedom shrinks and vanishes. You are free.”

Mothers Day Cards with Gold Alcohol Splash

Hi friends

I am so sorry that I have not been very active in blog land and on FB the past few weeks. My elder son had an accident and is advised complete rest for 6 weeks. He is getting better and I thank god as the healing is progressing well.

As can be imagined, it is the toughest task for a hyper-active 21 year old to be restricted to bed with minimum movement advised, so blogging takes a back seat and the mum has to take charge :)

However I managed to squeeze out some time to try the newly launched Gold Alcohol Splash Inks by Itsy Bitsy and created two cards for Mother’s day. For more details visit the Itsy Bitsy blog here, I am sure you would love to try out these new Alcohol sprays...........
