Trudy's Mix-Ability challenge for us this week is to create the look of glitter captured in glass.
I used Inktense pencils and a glaze pen to color this Impression Obsession image (Dress Form) - I masked the panel with some drywall mesh tape, scribbled with an Inktense pencil onto an acrylic block, moistened the pigment, then stippled it through the mesh to create some interest in the background.
When the bodice was dry, I painted it with some clear glittery acrylic paint, then covered the same area with Diamond Glaze.
