Back in time

 Hello creative friends.

It's a new day, a new month and a new year!
I would like to wish you all the very best for 2023.
May the new year bring you all your heart's desires.

I am sharing a new project as Design Team member
for 13arts created as inspiration for the
January Mood Board Challenge.

The 13arts challenge is a fun way to
explore different colours/themes that you
might not always choose and so give you
an opportunity to venture out of your
comfort zone.  Be inspired by this
new mood board, create a project of
your own and then submit it onto
INSTAGRAM only using 

the #13artsJan23.  There is an 

amazing prize for the winner who will 

also be invited to Guest Design 

for 13arts.

I created this canvas using ephemera 

from the BACK IN TIME collection 

as well as 13arts amazing mixed 

media products and mediums.

I prepared the background of my canvas by 

diluting 13arts Color Glows with water and then 

painting them onto the canvas, spraying 

with water to allow the product to move.  

Once it was dry, I combined 13arts Texture 

Powder with modeling paste and applied 

this to my canvas using a spatula, 

leaving it to dry to allow the 

cracks to form.  I used the same product 

to stencil around my canvas.

I also added some stenciling with a 

combination of gel medium and Tiger 

Eye Color Glow.

I painted the resin pieces with the Color 

Glows combined with Liquid 

Acrylic Medium, leaving them to dry 

before lightly brushing with white gesso.

I added metallic foil to the centre of my 

canvas and then layered the resin pieces 

with ephemera and transparent foil from 

the BACK IN TIME collection, 

adding the Tiger Eye Color Glow 

around my composition to create depth.

I hope that this project has inspired you to 

join the 13arts challenge this month.
