Life is Art. Paint Your Dreams ....

Welcome everyone to our March Moodboard Challenge over at Splashy Mix Challenges.  

Here is this month's inspiring moodboard.  I just love the colour scheme. 



I have created this mixed media canvas  inspired by the moodboard. 


Steps I used to create my project.


I painted my canvas with gesso and then used Distressed Oxide Sprays in the colours of  Picked Raspberries and Wilted Violet to colour the canvas.

My next step was to cover the canvas with a Tim Holtz  idea-ology tissue wrap which I used a Gloss medium to affix the tissue to my canvas.





My face was stenciled with this fantastic stencil by Stencil Girl called Pretty as a Peacock and purple  acrylic paint. The background paint for the stencil was made using both the Picked Raspberries and Wilted Violet Distress Ink Oxide sprays. 



 I then added some white markings to the canvas with white acrylic paint and a stencil by the Crafter's Workshop. 





The sentiment that I added to the canvas is a old  rubber stamp from my stash by Stampendous called Life is Art.  

I hope my canvas inspires you and that you will join us this month.  Just create your project and enter it here.   If you want to know more about my project and the steps and products I used please see my blog In Search of My Creative Side.
