How to create an Angel Canvas with Emerald Creek embossing powders

Angel Canvas with Emerald Creek

I’m up on the Emerald Creek blog again as a guest designer. Today I prepared a slightly larger project using Emerald Creek embossing powder. I already was in love with them, but after I finished this project I am even more. Because this project is a little larger than my usual projects, I took a few more photos. You can click on them to enlarge them. I started by painting the ocean. Next up, the sunset. The first layer was just about getting paint onto the canvas. Second color, but no blending yet. I added the third color on top, …

Heart and Soul Is the Title of My New Canvas

Heart & Soul

Hello 🙂 Today I wanted to share my latest canvas with you. Unfortunately I have created it over several days and can’t remember exactly every single step. You can see some layers in the pictures above and I tried to make good and useful close up photos 🙂 I started by adding texture paste through a harlekin stencil and splattered Iridescent Silver Acrylic ink from Liquitex onto the top and let it run down. Then I blended Dylusions paints in several blue tones on top. Now I adhered some cloth, the flowers (Prima), the frame (Prima) and the crown (Tim …

There Is An Angel On My Canvas

Shiny

I started with this canvas a while ago and I finally finished it last weekend. This time I remembered to take pictures throughout the process, so you get a better idea of how I created it. Because I had to wait for things to dry all the time, it took me about two weeks to finish it. Of course, I didn’t work every single day on it 🙂 Btw, at the beginning I had no idea what I want to do with the canvas, I just started and everything came together one step after the other. Basically I started with …

A Week of Firsts – Cats on a Canvas

Cats on a Canvas 2

While I was watching YouTube videos about art journaling, I stumbled over one video. In that video the artist created cats on a canvas and I was so blown away that I used hers as inspiration for my very first canvas art. Yes, mine is very different compared to hers, and I’m still not sure if I’m actually done. But I never thought that I would be able to create something like that at all! I started with ripping some pieces of paper apart and adhering them with matte gel medium to the canvas and applying Gesso on top. Then …
