Another finished painting in the faux ivory and vintage style collage realm.
12 by 12 inches by 2 inches deep. I used some graphite rubbings of leaves on rice paper and then coated with wax for base layers. Then I some washi papers and a vintage photo printed on rice paper. Next was the bronze colored vintage style ribbon and then I used a couple stencils for the faux ivory technique. Lastly some walnut ink and gold foil.
In other words a bit of this and that and then a bit more.....
I painted the sides in a gold metallic acrylic paint.
I haven't done much collage work as a whole so the experimenting is fun but am still trying to find how to balance the composition and lights and darks ect....
I eventually want to try a few paintings using old family photos.....
All for today - Take Care
