Christmas Ornaments Fluid Art
I got 30 of these poured, finish sprayed, priced and down to my daughters' store to adorn one of her Christmas trees. I did 3 pours with the same colors, same sequence of colors, and 3 different looks. This is Pour #1
Christmas Colors Fluid Art
WHAT A MESS..... Tonight I did a major "Christmas colors" pour and dips. Christmas ornaments, small candle jars, a couple of canvas pieces, and my 4 x 6 dips. It will be fun to go downstairs tomorrow and see the results, finish coat, and put things back together. I am hoping to do another pour of Christmas ornaments tomorrow. (I keep my glitter in a salt shaker so that I have more control of placement and amount).
Resin and Rubber Stamps
An Etsy buyer asked if resin would work on the rubber stamps I sell on Etsy.
I didn't know so here is a photo of the results.
WORKED GREAT WITH A RELEASE spray.
The resin portion on the right shows white but it is actually clear. Once I got it started with my finger nail it pulled right off.... On the rubber stamp to the left you can see exactly where the resin laid and that the stamp is still in good condition in done correctly.
I used the Evirontex 2 part resin that I purchased at JoAnnes. It is spendy so when I need it I make sure that I at least have a 40% off coupon to use. On my site I sell Cool Slip which is a release in a spray bottle.
Wing Stencils / Canvas
Another project I am working on. I always seem to have at least 4-5 things "in process". I used a silver molding paste which is giving a bit of dimension to the piece. I like that they are different...so will sell separately but my next will be a pair of the one I like the best when I finish and I want to do pink for a girls room.....every child needs wings to fly. I am in the process of adding some shading and the hologram glitter which I think makes the piece. I will post when finished. The wing stencil is available for sale in my Etsy store as well as silver, gold and platinum paste.....I have several differed wing stencils and the smallest ones are just adorable.....It is fun to be retired and able to play.
The canvas pieces are stretched canvas boards and the size was a special order. I "think" I am going to add silver chain as the hanging element
Fluid Dip Art
There are times when I pour or dip and am just not sure how well I like the pieces I do but once I start trying on mats, and add a frame I love the results. The finished piece is for my grandson for Christmas. I picked the frame up yesterday at my favorite thrift store....I love when it is just there for me to buy ...... Got the rest matted and they will go to the SunRiver store. The green in the frame is glass and is part of the actual frame which is silver....and I had a silver mat. It turned out perfect.
POURED Bottle Vase
Colors are OK on this but not my favorite...but hopefully it will appeal to someone. Really like the bottle. Perfect for flowers, some fairy lights, etc.
Poured Christmas Ornaments
A set of 3. Green, beige, gold and silver. Will put a finish coat on the tonight. Also did several 4 x 6
on processed paper that I will mat. These look like flasks. I always like unique and different. Have 3 more to do and if they sell in the store I will get some more.
Polymer Clay Necklace
Just finished these two necklaces using some new acrylic pattern rolling pins that I purchased from overseas.
The bottom ones' chain is done using fishing lure products. I love different and this necklace speaks unique.
Winter Mountain
This is the largest canvas (other than a wall) that I have painted on. I don't know why they intimidate me. Roni LaBrae was one of my favorite artists and so I am using one of her designs for color, placement angles etc. for my daughters' new store) along with winter snow photos I have taken to get some "effects". You can't see the blue areas in the sky real well but they are there....I have to add snow patches on the mountain and then to the front a winter river... hopefully when I am done it will look like a river scene from the Bend/Deshutes River area. As always I am enjoying the process...
Acrylic.
Matisse Flow Paints
Dynasty Brushes
Faux Squirrel
Eye of the Tiger
IPC Brushes
Dry Brushes
Foliage Wave Dynasty Speciality Series
For years I have worked with different brands of brushes and the Dynasty Brushes are BY FAR my favorites and basically about all I use to get the "effects" I am wanting to achieve.
FLUID ART Dip
Another one I just love....especially in the pink mat. I am planning on doing calendars for friends this Christmas using my dips.. I love looking at them and turning every which way. Sometimes ya' see things and sometimes ya' don't. It is mesmerizing to me. This one has been finished in a way I like that gives the picture a hazy look that is different.
An addicting, fun, relaxing art technique.
FLUID ART Orange Black and Silver
There are some I can't sell or let go of. They will go to friends ... or I will mat, frame and hang.
4" x 6".
Fluid Art acrylic "dips"
Polymer Clay Necklace and Bracelet Set
I love this necklace but I can't keep every piece I do....so to the store it shall go.
I have used wood beads and handmade lamp work beads by an artist here or overseas
that is a SRA (Self representing artist). They are not the Chinese glass lamp work. The
beads match perfectly.
Christmas Card 2018
This is going to be my Christmas card for this year and then I will probably mat and frame. Some abstract art I like and some I don't. Some of the pieces I pour just "aren't" so I lay them aside to use in some other form of art, the others I mat, and if they are really neat like this one I may mat and frame.
The first thing that I saw when I finished the pour dip was The Three Wise Men.... There are times that I reserve back ones that I like....they say art finds its home..
Fluid Art
Then when I am done with the pour....the dipping begins in the run off from the pour. I have to play with this a bit but so far...I have gotten some pretty ones. They are matted and my daughter has quite a few of them in her store.
And finally this last piece which has 4 matts and is framed. I love the imagery of this one and is a gift.
