March 30, 2019

Hello creatives,  happy Saturday!  Want another way to create texture and movement in your projects? You are going to love these fun techniques for your mixed media projects! This picture shows the final result up close and personal! Not only does this give your project texture, but buildable layers. 

Here is a video to explain the process. Disclaimer- I do not work this fast! The video is sped up for YouTube, super fast, for your viewing pleasure! The video will walk you through these techniques to create texture and movement!

Create Texture and Movement

Here is the final result, don’t you love the texture and movement? If you see it in person the colors are stunning and it’s is definitely a piece you want to touch because of all the amazing textures! It may be hard to see in the videos and the pictures but the yarns have very cool metallic threads running through them. The different colors and textures really pop on the wood background.

I hope that you get some reative time for your self thsi weekend!

I hope you will try these new techniques,- you will love it!
Blessings!
Rita

      Thank you so much Renee – the feel of the project is so cool in person! I wish you could capture to look and feel in a picture!

In my work I hope you will find encouragement, a little whimsy, something pretty or at least something to make you think. I do believe we need to be thankful and focus on the positive! I am passionate about art and believe that we are all creative in our own ways.
