Artful Days Steampunk Heart Canvas

Hi all

I am back with a new project for Artful Days.

This week i have gone for a rusty look with this mixed media heart canvas.

Paint Everything with black gesso

Tacke the heart and paint over with dark brown rust paint and then the rust colour, dry brush the yellow rust paint on to finish.

Paint the whole thing with blue metallic luster and once dry add the small cogs and charms. 

add another layer of metallic paint and then add a bit of rust paint to the charms.

Add flowers and a sentiment to finish.
