I
feel like a kid in the candy store, first for being able to play with some
gorgeous stencils and second for guest designing for StencilGirl today. I’m
stoked and can’t wait any longer to share my project with you.
This project is a wood clipboard (minus the clip) with some 3D elements to it. I prepared a video for you, so you can follow along:
As you can see I added several layers of paint and other mediums to the clipboard:
1) I started with 4 layers of Gesso
to prime the surface.
2) Then I sprayed a few blue and
brown shades all over the panel.
3) Next up, I used a bunch of old
book paper and music sheets and collaged them all over the place.
4) To blend the paper more into the
background, I added another layer of Gesso on top.
5) Now I covered the clipboard with
Nathalie Kalbach’s Hamburg stencil and blended three different colors through
it.
6) I used the same colors to merge
the stenciled part more into the layout.
7) Sue Pelletier’s Loose Woman 3 is
going to be my focal point, so I used texture paste to make her stand out.
8) While she was drying, I
“designed” her dress using some cheese cloth and the Pilgrimage to the Renaissance stencil from Laurie Mika.
9) I soaked the cloth in Sculpture
Medium and then adhered it on top of my dancing woman. The Sculpture Medium
makes the fabric really stiff.
10) Some gold mica flakes for the
heart and dress, a few more paint splatters and a cheery sentiment finished up
my project.
I
hope you enjoyed my project and join me in twirling around the room for a
little bit :)
A
big thanks to StencilGirl for having me!
