Mixed Media Dinner?

Mixed Media Dinner?

Lots and lots of photos today of the process of this mixed media piece.
It all started with some odd cutlery we had at or own flea market. I seen someone making cool stuff with a spoon etc, so I thought, why not use them all!


First layer is Glue, Beads, Punchinella, Cheesecloth, paper, net and probably something more I can’t remember now. Then covered with white gesso. The Cutlery is glued with 3d Glossy Gel.


Then I needed some flowers… so I used what I found, and happily some large ones!



Then cover it all with gesso – again.


Close up of structure.


Added chipboard from SnipArt.


And now the fun part – colours! Mists from Tattered Angels and Dylusions. Pigment powder (rainbow colors) from 13arts.




The cutlery is painted with Prima Color Bloom Gold Foil mist. (it’s more gold-ish in real life then this pictures)



And after I thought I was finished the first time I changed my mind and added some more colors (Rainbow colors 13arts) for extra contrast. Dots are splashed gesso mixed with some water to get it more liquid-ish.
