Seaside Fun Reverse Canvas

Now on to my project. I had thought long and hard about this project before even starting it. It took me a while to really come up with how this should look. I took inspiration from a variety of things. I had done a tag class with my good friend Suz and took some ideas from that, I wanted to support one of the awesome sponcers Nicolle from Cretive Embellishemtns so I used a variety of product from the store. This idea had been jotted down on a piece of paper since Nicolle started to come out with the wood Decore items.

Here is my video:

Using various techniques and pastes, I started with the background, getting the base and taking some inspiration from my friend Suz, I started to blend working until I had the sky and the water done.

I decided to only use the anchor and the lighthouse on the large canvas. First painting the base, then adding more texture with crackle glaze and some dirty wash. I added the brick texture to the background and adding some paper backing. I bit of wash also on this one.

I worked with various pastes to make the bottom of the sea, This portion took so long to dry. And me being the impatient one. This project had various different components and techniques in one trying to mash them together to look good.

Using the Suns from Relics & Artifacts, painted and blending before adding them to the background.

I had some more pieces from RA, so I painted those and set them aside to dry before finishing off the piece with the water colour on the bottom of the sea floor. I put on the painted RA pieces to finish off the story of Down By the Sea.

Thank you for stopping by and Thank you to all our wonderful and generous sponcers who joined us for this great YouTube Hop.
