ABOVE IS MY FINISHED PIECE OF ARTWORK.  BELOW IS HOW IT STARTED. I have matted and framed using my "stash".  I cannot believe I had the perfect size and match.  That doesn't happen very often.   I have hung it where I can see it several times a day to determine whether it is REALLY DONE and soon it will be FOR SALE. Since we have to be social distancing I thought I would distance myself with some art.  The 1st photo shows a pour I did a few months ago.  Nothing special but a nice piece to play with and see what might or might not happen ..and  a learning experience.   The unicorn is a stencil and I used gold, silver, copper and white modeling paste.  I  let it dry overnight and in the morning I applied a coat of Satin varnish in preparation for the next time I would work on it.  The varnish protects this stage and in the event I don't like what I do next I can easily wipe it off.   The stencil I have laid...

Since it looks as if we are all going to be restricted from venturing around as we are used to I have been using the time to create.   Just got 9 pair of earrings listed on my Etsy site for sale and I have several different designs that I am going to make into necklaces over the weekend.   It feels good to create and pull things from the inside out.    I love the copper the way it shines and reflects light.  Seems so richly elegant but simple and unique.

I am working on a canvas piece using this stencil which is new in my Etsy shop. The base coat for the canvas was Paynes grey and a complementary purple along with Warm White  with acrylic paints in a soft foggy slip slap.  I have used a modeling paste (Pearl White and White) for the unicorn... and using other stencils I will be adding accents....  I will take a photo tonight after I spend an hour or so with it ....  The mat is going to be purple and the frame white.  I am never quite sure what I am going to do until I do it... It is relaxing and a lot of fun to just play a little. This is a couple of nights work.  Goofed up doing the I believe in Unicorns.....so tomorrow night I have to fix this...put my hand right in it....  I have spattered the paining and the mat with Glamour Dust Paints the lightest one they carry .   Not too much....not too little.  I ended up using 6 stencils....IF this is finished.  I will look for a piece of glas...
