Mixed Media Canvas for a Contest
This is a piece I created for a local contest where the theme was "The Diaspora". The Bible refers to the Diaspora of Jews exiled from Israel by the Babylonians. This canvas did't win any price. Next, I'm showing the process to create the focal point, which was over a wood frame. The whole piece was made on a 30"X40" birch wood cradled panel. After almost all the pieces were adhered, I covered everything with black gesso Details of the focal point #3Dobject #altered #collage


Altered Brush
I have seen so many altered brushes, especially by Finnabair that I wanted to give it a try. I mounted it on a wood panel #brush #altered #paint #painting #collage #color #design #mixmedia #mixedmedia #handmade #metal #DIY

Mixed Media Heart
I was given a 3D fiberglass heart and asked to do "something" with it for an auction with many well known Chilean artists. I really freaked out and didn't know what to do with it. After a few days thinking, I decided to do something in Finn's style. It was one of the firsts to be sold and I felt such a relief! It took almost a month to make it because of the drying times and because some days I just couldn't figure out what else to add. I covered it completely in textured pap

Embossed Metal and Alcohol Ink Tutorial
Hi friends, This is an old post but due to the popularity, I wanted to repost it here. The video is about how to emboss metal sticky foil and paint it with alcohol inks, hope you enjoy it! For those of you don't know how to use embossing folders, I have a photo tutorial at the bottom of this post. In this case, I finished the piece by covering it with black paint and wipping out almost all to just let some darker spots. Other examples using the same technique with another emb
