These were done with joint compound over decoupaged images (the last two were lazertran images). I inked the edges for color, added beeswax when the joint compound dried, the wood stain rubbed over that, then more ink, and gold rub. They're very textural in person. I took advantage of the imperfect transfer on the Madonna, to make it look flaking. The medussa transfer is transparent, so I added flakes of leftover transfer image from the madonna, to make it less "perfect" looking. I like the way the Madonna looks like to she has a star for her eye. The Medussa is a little creepy :)
This is a two page spread I created for an Art Garage traveling journal. I used paint on a large floral stamp for the background, stencils, inks, and collage images. I embelished with a gold calligraphy pen.
