Cottage Paint – Black and White Crackled Stool with Twigs and Birds Nest Image Transfer using Transfer Gel – Painted Furniture Thank you to Deb Vanden Broek of U Nailed It DIY Studio in Peterborough Ontario for sending in this cute stool pic! This is the only piece I’ve seen where an image has been transferred on top of a crackled surface, and the result is absolutely stunning! Deb pained the stool in Cottage Paint Black, then applied Easy Crackle, then painted White on top of the Easy Crackle, let it crack, then used Transfer Gel to apply the image and protected it all with Satin Varnish. Fabulous job!!!

So today I'm taking a break from sign making. Too much lettering, I'm gonna go blind lol. So after I got the mapping down last night, which really is just doodling, this morning I've started on the actual sketch. So she's going to be tribal, got some sharp features, piercings that will have some long chains attached. The feathers I'll put straight on to the canvas. I'm not overly worried about building up the ears as for the most part they will be covered in hair. Being steampunk inspired this will be a mixed media painting, adding some texture and cogs to the piece. I did play with the idea of making her more cartoonish but with the image I have in my head it just won't work. Next I'll work on the eyes, add a few last minute details then transfer to canvas. Meanwhile gonna spend some time with my favorite art buddy Malek (my bearded dragon). #workinprogress #wip #steampunk #painting #acrylic #chalkbasedpaint #mixedmedia #mixedmediapainting #mixedmediaart #artist #artistoninstagram #neutralcolors #outofmycomfortzone #longroadahead (at Grande Prairie, Alberta)
