This is what I have made for the Inspiration week.....

I had loads of fun with a small shadowbox. it was an empty box where wooden embellishments were in, I turned it into a sort of a wallhanger...




I worked with Gesso for the first layer and after that I played with lots of Pearlescent PanPastels.



 I mixed the Pearlescents with water and made sure the colour was going all over the background.
 I finished with Crackle and a layer of Iridescent Paste.


  I placed a few of my favourite butterflies from Wendy and colored them with Pearlescents. The top layer is the Transparant Crackle and if you look close you can even see the cracks in the background.




 And I played with a birdcage (which is colored with Metallic Pans) with a heart on top, The heart is alos colored with Pearlescent Pans and toplayer is also Crackle..... To finish my project for this week I have placed some sentiments, which are simply the truth. Because sometimes it is really to Escape the realitiy you create art.....right......

  5. Your recycled shadowbox could not be more perfect for our challenge at BSCB! What a creative way to use an old box that stored trinkets. I wonder though, were did you end up putting the trinkets? anyway your birdcage, heart, and butterflies are wonderful.. Mixed Media is an art I need to work on and to see someone do it as well as you is a treasure to see.. Thank you so much for joining BSCB I really enjoy your work!!
