Christmas Globe

 

Hi everyone.

I am sharing a Christmas Globe for the 13arts Christmas inspiration post up on the blog today.

I created this project with a perspex globe by first covering a wooden canvas with 

white gesso and then applying a combination bronze shiny powder mixed with 

gel medium as well as modeling paste and applying it to the canvas with a spatula, drying 

between each application.

I also added pastel mint mist to the background.

The bottom part of the globe was coloured with copper alcohol ink.

I adhered some of the 13arts Dreamland papers behind the globe and adhered it 

to the canvas, together with wire, leaves, glitter, stars and snow, before giving it all

a light dusting of white gesso.

Color Glow was added to the stars and then lightly painted with some of the 

bronze shiny powder and then, once dry, white gesso was added.

I added some stenciled leaves to the sides of the canvas with shiny powder 

mixed with gel medium.

I hope that this project has inspired you to create your own.

Until next time!
