This is another piece of work that I have been working on today. I have been trying to recreate parts of an image which looks quite cracked. To create this image, I have used things that I found round the house. Firstly I collaged 2 different colours of tissue paper (that wrapped a cardigan I bought from Anthropologie) one piece was lightly patterned and the other was plain. Once that had dried, I rubbed some ink onto the slightly raised area's with a baby wipe. Again I allowed it to dry, then to dull the colour of the tissue paper, I used a white acrylic mixed with lots of water and used it as a wash and then blotted it with another baby wipe. Once I had used the hairdryer to dry this layer, I then painted a thick coat of a clear crackle paint on top.
These two images here are very zoomed in images of the original piece of work, so the effect is quite subtle it is only when you look very closely that you see all these really interesting amazing cracks.
This image is one that I have manipulated slightly, the others on this post have not been changed.
ALL ARTWORK ON THIS BLOG BELONGS TO EMILY COLLISTER UNLESS STATED OTHERWISE.
