I also got this out of the Mixed Media Explorations book. It was done in the same fashion as the fabric paper but using tyvek paper instead of muslin. I used a used tvek envie.
The technique is in the January Technique of the Month - post below this one.
I crumpled the tissue paper here (and then uncrumpled) and that made it harder to see the stuff underneath. I also used a blue wash first. That was too dark. I dabbed it up with a paper towel but it was too late. I added some nickel azo gold and some green. Great color and texture. I will have to put a stamp pad to the texture to bring it out. My fabric paper shows the paper underneath much better than this one. Well, you experiment and learn. I will still use this for something.
I really really like that! I use those colors so much. I wish I could break out of that routine but they remind me of floating on the sea. My favorite place to be.
ReplyDeleteI love the crinkles and the colors. Thanks for showing. Also, I like the new header on your blog.
