Altered Canvas

Good Morning All

Firstly I would like to thank everyone for my Birthday wishes, it was a sweet and a sad occasion, I have had some bad news concerning a very close friend, but we are trying to keep positive.
*********
This is another 18 x 18 canvas I have painted over and decorated.
Once again, the space in the centre is for pics of my Grand kids.


Initial planning


 I painted the canvas in brown acrylic, then rubbed bits with pewter Gilding Wax.

Then just went to town on allsorts of embellishments.

Doilies, flowers, butterflies.



Texture paste through a mask.




I have got one more to do, so watch this space.
