Another Day of Inspiration

Hello Everyone
Today I am sharing a canvas from one of our amazingly talented Mixed Media artist
Sandy Spink.
I love Sandy's work, her use of mixed media products are inspirational and this canvas is one of my all time favourites. Just look at the layers of colour Sandi has managed to create on her canvas. Along with all the bits and pieces she has added as well. Just stunning and beautiful and my favourite colour.


 
 
Here is what Sandi has to say about her canvas.
This canvas was begun by gluing layers of a variety of Imaginarium letters together; spelling the words create and art on the top and adding the heart and swirl. I used an old negative, pencil, empty paint tubes, twine, brushes, hessian and cheese cloth.
 

I covered the surface with black gesso before building the layers of colour.


I used Lindy's sprays, Prima waxes and Prima paint ensuring each layer was totally dry before adding the next.

 
Sandi - thank you so much for creating this very special canvas for us and sharing it here.
I really do admire Sandi and her passion for her creating beautiful pieces.
I will be back tomorrow with our last share from the design team and also to show you the layouts we have received for our October challenge. 
See you soon.
Jane
