Time for another great mixed media/altered art challenge at Creative Artiste this month. The theme of the challenge as always is anything goes.
I found this violin at a flea market and decided to make a project using it for this challenge.
Some of the things I used in the project.
I used the reversed of the wooden canvas and added gesso to the canvas along with gesso to the ceramic titles. My next step was to add paintis several different colours to age the project. I added a sheet of music to the canvas that I had stained with Tim Holtz Distressed inks.
My next step was to add crackle paint to the canvas and on the tiles etc. Once I had affixed the tiles and violin to the canvas I added my sentiment, music notes and gears.
Some closer views

ReplyDeleteSimply brilliantly put together Judy. So much attention to detail and all perfectly placed. Stunning colours and effects with the mediums you used here.

ReplyDeleteAn absolutely gorgeous canvas Judy. Wonderful colours and the violin and tiles look amazing xx
ReplyDeleteI love this little reverse canvas... always happy to listen to music (though in my head it's a cello rather than a violin!), and the colours and distressed textures are perfect.
