Mixed Media sampler

I created this sampler for a class, it has many different materials, techniques and colors.

The whole thing is created on muslin with a layer of wonder under between the pieces as well as a layer of organza.

The support is given by ribbon and wooden sticks that I painted with acrylic paint.

I had fun working on this project.

Close up of first half front view

The first panel was made by having a piece of fabric paper (I made it with felt, paper, gel medium, acrylic paint, and gold leaf) as the background, then a piece of friendly plastic over a small piece of velvet and a few brads spelling the word "shine"

The second panel was a piece of silk colored with some watercolor paint, then stamped with black archival ink and the sun in the middle was done by using stencil and pebeo, once it was heated up, finished and cooled down, I rubbed some acrylic paint around it to make it more intense.

The last panel was made by using Claudine Hellmuth's Vaseline resist technique, a few acrylic paints and stamping an image with archival paint.

In these last 3 panels I used rubber stamps and foam stamps to create the designs.

for the first one (left to right) I colored a piece of card stock using acrylic paints, I then randomly stitched with a sewing machine, a piece of muslin previously painted with some lumieres and water, applied gel medium to the center of the piece, some UTEE (gold) and stamped a fleur de lis with some "embossing ink" just to be able to release the stamp easily. I then rubbed some purple acrylic paint on the top.

On the second panel, I used rinse away paper wet over a foam stamp, let it dry overnight and colored and stitched over fabric the next day.

The third and final panel is nothing but a piece of friendly plastic stamped and inked, glued to a piece of paper colored with acrylic paints and stitched.

Back view of the panel

I colored the material with different Adirondack paint dabbers and stamped them away using my bandana stamps for the back side of my project.

I stamped using ink and paint and after all of it was dried I sprayed the whole back with water and perfect pearls.
