Altered Guitar

Hello people. 

Today I have something to share which is quite different for me, an altered thing. I was asked by mother-in-law that should I throw this guitar shaped wooden piece? I said no and this happened. ;)

Here is the one before alteration:


And what I did with it:





I arranged everything roughly first. Then I started glueing the arrnaged things : some prima and other charms, lace, some waste resin embellishments, some fillers, some textures with glue gun and then gessoed everything in black. After drying it completely, I started adding Prima Antique Brilliance waxes which I was storing since long. 

Mirror charm was glued after detaching mirror from it. 

At last, I highlighted everything (textures and borders of embellished area too) with Prima silver acrylic paint, and added that detached glass to the mirror, some diamond brads which I took out from charms while glueing and two small flowers. 

Here are some closeups: 




I hope you liked it.

Thanks for stopping by. 

Love,
Chirali. :)

Happiness - A mixed media layout

Hello people.

I hope you are doung well. 

I am back on personal blog after a long time with a mixed media layout (after a long time too), #happiness. 

Here it is:


It’s done on a patterned paper of DCWV’s Zodiac paper stack. I gessoed the portion I wanted to highlight, then added textures and colours and colour splashes, again and again till I got a satisfying result for me. Then added papers, photo, gessoed and coloured chipboards and other things.

At last, I added a textured writing with shimmer paste and stencil. 

Some closeups:











And I got it framed too. Have a look:



I hope you liked it. 

Thanks for stopping by. 

Love,
Chirali. :)
