My project this month is an Altered Mixed Media Canvas. 

Here is my project.



Here are some of the products I used to create my canvas.


Step 1

I painted my canvas with gesso, then used a stencil of clogs and wheels to create the background.   Once I was satisfied with they background I added my background colors using Paynes Grey and white acrylic paint, distressed inks and script rubber stamp.

Step 2

My next step was to  collage an assortment of old medical prescription forms that I found in a antique store years ago in Arizona several years ago along with other antique papers in my collection.. The photo that I used in my project is from Tim Holtz's Found Relatives Collection. I added Distress Inks and an ink spray to give an antique look to my photo and papers. 

Step 3

To complete the project I added an interesting collection of clogs and gears, tag and other finds. 

I hope you enjoy my project and are inspired to join in this current month,  Anything Goes Challenge.

  3. This is a great canvas! Your palette is perfect for this "vintage" creation. I particularly like the "patina" effect on your tags and embellishments. We were so pleased to have found this delightful creation in our mailbox at 613 Avenue Create!
