Grungy canvas by Nirvana

Hi everybody!!

Today I present to you a canvas a little grunge, trash! I found this skull in a store, my husband cut the back of it so that I could glue it flat on a canvas! 

Once glued, I added recycled embellishments, and others like Prima flowers, metal embellishments, chipboards, art stones ... Then, I delicately applied gesso everywhere except on my canvas! The task is not easy, you have to be careful !! (Some embellishments are painted before being pasted) I then spent "old silver" wax everywhere! 

Then I diluted the liquid acrylic paint "Carmine" with water to give a rusty and bloody effect !! I only put it in a few places, and added a little "fire ruby" wax, then I added paste effect rust to these same places, to make a worn and aged effect ... As the rust turns green in time, I applied a few drops of "Emerald" liquid acrylic paint! Finally, I diluted a little "White" liquid acrylic paint in water to make small white spots!

XOXO

Hi Everybody!

Today I don't have a video because the project is too big to be filmed! My canvas is 20 "x 27"!
So I painted with black gesso, and glued my embellishments one by one (a lot of recycling), taking care to tighten them against each other, and to make 3 different places!

I then put silver wax on all the reliefs, several times to accentuate the effect! Then I chose embellishments which were going to become rusty and make drips on my canvas, as if time had acted !!

It only remained for me to do some spots of white ink here and there!

XOXO
Nirvana!
