"Fantasia" mixed media abstract landscape by Carol Nelson

"Fantasia"

Here's another of my muted palette mixed media pieces.  Lol - just kidding about the "muted" part.  This was a demo I did last week for some students taking semi-private instruction in my studio.

It started out as a monoprint, but in the following day or two, I kept adding stuff (acrylic drizzle skins, marbleized/stamped paper) to this painting. 

That's a joy/curse of mixed media - you never know when you're DONE!
Who knows? - I may add MORE stuff to this one (but probably not).

"Iron Strata" mixed media collage with metal by Carol Nelson

I was pounding things flat with a hammer and my new anvil today.  This painting was sitting near the table I was working on.

It's a painting I did about a year ago.  I've brought it to several workshops as an example of using paper to look like rusted iron (using iron paint.)

This curled piece of flattened copper wire looks great as a little embellishment on this painting.

"Winter Wardrobe 2" mixed media collage tree landscape by Carol Nelson

"Winter Wardrobe 2"

 

This painting is a demo I did for my Abstracted Tree class yesterday.  I used Golden's Pearl Mica Flake (small) for the "snow".
I really like the effect, and wish you could see it better in the photo.  It goes on as a white gel, but after it dries, all you see is the little reflective mica flakes.

"Layers 3" revised acrylic abstract collage by Carol Nelson

"Layers 3" 8x8 inch mixed media collage

This is the new version of a painting I did last month.  The only difference is the addition of the black circular squiggles.  I admit to being terrified of gestural marks such as these - ESPECIALLY if the painting beneath is already done.

It would be easy to really screw up a half way decent painting by adding these quick marks that cannot be easily controlled.  Their beauty is in their spontaneous flow of movement.

So these were done as an acrylic skin on a sheet of plastic.  The black lines are dimensional paint (Tulip and Lumiere are two brands).
After the dimensional lines are dry, cover them with soft gel gloss, clear self leveling gel, or clear tar gel - all Golden products, although other manufacturers make similar products.

You end up with the black lines (in this case) in a sheet of clear acrylic that you can cut up, and arrange on your painting any way you choose.

original version

Here's a view of some other squiggles I have ready to go.

The beige background is the wood of the table.
