GESSO CRACKLE

The technique for this fortnight I've called "Gesso Crackle".   It was purely an accidental discovery while I was doing another technique previously.  It uses Gesso (duh!), and the wonderful Golden Paints in the Fluids.  You need the Golden fluids for this technique, not the heavy body ones as they are too stiff.   Just don't go there okay?   lol

"Attack"...

"Bite Me"...

"Failure"...
 "What you see"...



This next one is just a quickie I made for my son's birthday.   Rather than make a card for him I thought I'd do an atc so he can stick it on his fridge next to the ones I've made for my daughter-in-law Elice.   As we've just bought a still, thought it was relevant.    Yes, that's a page from his old calculus book!


Finally, a last atc from the previous technique, Mini Collage with paint.

"Stargazer"...
