The Beach at Sunset - Mixed Media Project
I noticed a few of my recent mixed media projects had a similar theme & palette to them - they involved pink flowers and a green background. For this project I mixed things up a bit! I started with a photograph which I converted to black & white in Photoshop. Once the photo was applied to the canvas I used pastels and acrylic paint to enhance it. I printed out some text from a recent surf report and applied it to the canvas with gel medium. I then painted some tape using acrylic paint and applied to the canvas when dry. Before brushing the entire canvas with gel medium to finish it, I splattered some white paint drops on the corners.
