Hello, everyone! Mary here with a canvas I call "Wicked." Halloween
is not normally my thing, but I had a lot of fun making this.
The
first thing I did was cover the entire canvas with black gesso. Next, I
took different sheets of paper and tore them into small bits. After
that, each edge of the small paper bits was inked with Gathered Twigs.
The next step after attaching the paper to the canvas was to apply a
thin coat of white gesso over the entire thing to tone down the
brightness of the paper. The ink will turn the gesso a soft brown. Once
the gesso was dry, I applied small strips of drywall joint tape to
random spots. I then used two of the spiderwebs from the Spiderweb Shape Set as
stencils. I applied embossing paste over the webs, various spots on the
canvas, and on the joint paint. When the embossing paste was dry, I
removed the joint tape and sprayed the canvas with Tears on my Pillow
Tangerine and Summer Lovin' Sun. After that was dry, I used Gathered
Twigs and Black Soot along all four edges of the canvas.
For
the chipboard pieces I used, I first covered them all in white gesso.
As I started working with each piece, I did recover each one in black
gesso. I have listed below how I altered each piece!
Corner spiderwebs: Magic Moon Pearls embossing powder
Bats: Black acrylic paint. The large bat is applied with foam pop squares.
Wicked: Glitter
Witches
Hats: Black embossing powder and on one, splattered with gold paint
marker. The belt on the hats - orange acrylic paint and silver paint
marker
Spiders: Glitter glue
Cauldron and witches feet: Gloss black, silver, green and black paint, gold paint marker.

I hope you inspired to make a canvas of your own!
