Let’s hop with Faber-Castell!

July 9, 2019

Lets hop with Faber-Castell!
Mixed Media RitaBarakat.com

Hello Creative! Welcome! Let’s hop with Faber-Castell! Today the team and I have all been gifted some awesome products from Faber-Castell to play with and one lucky creative (could it be you?) will win their own creative products from Faber-Castell! The details and video for these projects are below!

“Shine” is just one of four projects I created with the Abstract Art kit.
The fairy is from The Woodland Sprites collection of die cuts.

Do you see the luscious gold color sitting on top of the texture? Everything you need to know is in the video below!

The picture above is the same project, I added a stencil and one of painted fairies (The woodland Sprites)

Can’t you just imagine all the fun you would have with this kit? There are so many possibilities! In less than an hour I was able to cover four sides of the illustration cards, you can too!

Look at how the gold sits on this project – or the fun texture in those lines? It looks like an encaustic project! Do you see a face? That was a happy accident- it cracks me up. I almost feel like it’s steampunk with big round glasses!

I ended up adding a silver oil paint pen for this one- it needed a little something. Don’t you love how the raised gold still looks wet even though it’s dry?

I love this abstract art I made with the kit. Now that it’s completely dry I may add a few layers of glaze to encase the layers and make it look like an encaustic piece.

    Rita, I just love the gold—it really does SHINE. I’m glad that you showed it all up close so we could see the detail. I am so inspired to do something different now–get out of my rut….I’m going to do some Mixed Media today. YEs, today. 🙂

    The background around the angel glows. It is
    beautiful. I love the gold and silver design.
    There is so much movement in the background
    and the “moon” and the rivulets are great.
    thanks for sharing
