Beeswax canvas


 Here are a couple of mixed media sealed with beeswax canvases I made as some birthday gifts for friends.  I have neglected to post about them for over a month.  The kitty canvas was for a 12 year old girl who loves cats, and the "She who would fly" canvas for her 18 year old sister. I used newsprint gift wrap (found in the dollar section at Target) for the background of the kitty canvas.  It is all beeswax, with napkins, clip art from Lisa's altered art, and a bit of doily.  Oh, and some cool tinsel ribbon.  The "Fly" canvas started out as a mixed media piece with lots of paint and ink.  I also collaged on some napkin bits, clip art from Lisa's altered art and sewing pattern tissue.  The dragonfly stamp is from Stampers Anonymous Classics #1 set.

Bird Boy ATC

Bird Boy Originally uploaded by saunjune This little guy is the first ATC I made for Jennifer (the winner of the Art Lottery at North Coast art swaps).  I used a sand filled texture paste for the base of the background, then sprayed with glimmer mist, then inked, and finally dripped a combination of thinned teal colored paints and let them run down.  The plastic heart is from Heidi Swap, and inked with a wordy stamp I had laying around.  The little cutie boy is from Lisa's Altered Art Collage sheets.  You can find them here:  http://www.lisasalteredart.com/
