Here's a collage I made in Carmen Torbus' Spill It Revisited online class. I used Golden Fluid Acrylics and Golden Gel Matte Medium. It was a great class and I learned so much about fun ways to use acrylic paints! You can check out Carmen's class here. I highly recommend it if you like to play with acrylics and want to learn a fun technique for using them. I really enjoyed it!
Once I got the torn paper, mesh and acrylic paint portion of the collage done I did a leaf print using Golden Fluid Acrylics in Phtalo Green and leaves from a Japonica Pierias shrub in my yard. And added the Nurture Nature words which I had printed out on ledger paper. The original collage was 9 x 12 but I cut it down to square to fit into my art journal and glued it to an existing page. I think I'll use some antiqued brads in the corners to add a little interest. Just haven't decided on the color yet. I have some small square brads I think will be just right.
I hope you are staying cool wherever you are! It's been pretty warm here in Oregon.
Thanks for taking a look. Go create something!
I absolutely love this! I like the way the paint has different textures and runs in different directions. My favorite medium is acrylic paint so I will have to check out Carmen's class!
