for Carien

I got this idea from a book called “Sharpie Art Workshop for Kids” by Kathy Barbro (Author),  you need a piece of card stock, white glue, a glue stick, aluminum foil.  First you draw a simple shape with the white glue on the card stock (or chip board).  Let dry completely.  You might have to add a second layer, as the glue has a tendency to add its own ideas (I love art supplies that get involved).  I use Elmer’s craft bond because it doesn’t flatten when dry.   Then rub a glue stick all over.  I usually rub this in with my fingers.  Immediately starting in the center, lay the foil on top and rub outwards.  You might need a cotton tip stick for the smaller crevices. Wrap the foil around the edges, glue to back. At this point the book tells you to use a sharpie and color the image. Here is one I did following the instructions  Now I instead pour Pebeo mixed media paints.  . This is a solvent based medium, so use in a well ventilated area.  It takes at least 24 hours to dry completely.

Another fantastic artwork. Can you explain a little about the technique, Heide?

Glad my package got there. Mail is moving slowly from Canada to the US right now.  I'm seeing things get to and from Europe faster.
