Showing posts with the label pebeo mirror effect leaves

Start with 3 same designs and land up with 3 different paintings- using Liquitex and Pebeo paints

Here are 3 same designs that I started with a lace curtain on 6 x 12 inch canvases and worked each one with different mediums to get 3 completely different designs. First I sprayed Liquitex transparent Yellow, Red then White on the canvases. I let them dry for 45 mins. I then separated all the paintings with different mediums and played with each one over the course of 6 hours. So here are the results of playing with different mediums. First one was highlighted with some airbrush paint and Pebeo Gouche and outlined with Liquitex markers.  Second one, I used some pouring medium to highlight someof the floral design Third one, I used the Pebeo Gedeo relief mix and mirror effects.

I bought the silver and the gold to test and may go back and buy the red and green at a later date if I am loving it. So here is one that I added some of the silver leaf on top of an existing painting done with pouring medium which I felt needed a little more bling. It is hard to see it with all the different colours so hopefully the one below will show up better because I didn't use too many different colours. Below is one that I just started this morning and I am waiting for the paste to cure before I can put on the mirror effects. It takes approx 2hrs to cure and then you lay the sheet over the painting and apply a little pressure. I used a the bottom of a pen.  a...
