Week Two: Risk : Go Deeper

Just a bit about how I put this together. I started off using oil pastels on canvas paper for the background. Using Golden Matte Medium (per Claudine Hellmuth’s book, Collage Discovery Workshop), I adhered the canvas to my book and then brushed another coat on top. This mixed up the colors on the background – making it muddier than was my intention, but I went with it.
Next I added on some Texture Magic dimensional paint with a black “thing” – I have no idea what it is called – that comes in the Making Memories distressing kit. It is what created the ridges in the yellow dimensional paint.
Everything else is pretty much either rub-ons or scraps of paper collaged on with the matte medium.
My thoughts on risk center around the theme of going deeper in a variety of aspects in my life…taking risks to take things to the next level.
