This is a demo painting I started in my recent workshop at Camp McDowell in Alabama.

It has several kinds of paper, but the unusual detail shows the glass beads made in the Czech Republic, and a strip of copper metal with copper tacks.

This is another in my series of tree collages. I often teach this type of collage work in my workshops and private instruction. Their color, values, balance, and variety of materials keeps these collages fresh and ever-challenging for me.

Abstract Landscape Faux batik Painting, "Golden Hour" by Colorado Mixed Media Abstract Artist Carol Nelson

"Golden Hour" faux batik painting by Carol Nelson
This painting is an example of my "faux batik" process in which the painting is covered with wax, then flooded with a darker color. The dark color seeps into the cracks in the wax and leaves a random pattern. It's a very interesting and unpredictable effect.

Colorful Mixed Media Abstract Art Painting "Gemstone 25" by Colorado Mixed Media Abstract Artist Carol Nelson

Mixed media abstract,  "Gemstone 25" by Carol Nelson

This is another in my Gemstone series. I did this one as a demo in my recent class at Art&Soul in Minneapolis.

What's unusual about this one is that I poured a layer of Golden's Self Leveling Clear Gel over it as a finishing coat. The Clear Gel dries crystal clear and really enhances the colors.

The finish is not as hard as a layer of resin would be, but it is a good substitute. I added a little water to the Clear Gel to thin it a little.

Embellished print, "Color Study Red" © Carol Nelson Fine Art

"Color Study Red" by Carol Nelson
A couple years ago I did a Color Study on 9x14 paper. It has been one of the most liked images on my website and Pinterest pages. I decided to have a 12x36 inch print made of the original. That meant I had to crop it severely to fit into that format.


This is the original painting. I turned it horizontal for the print.

When the print arrived at my studio, I PAINTED OVER the printed image. I modified the color in places to match my bathroom.

I think it turned out fabulous. I have never "embellished" a print to this degree before. Since it was completely painted over, is it an original?

 You've been asking for this for years! 

 Finally, I made an instructional video that you can purchase through Craftsy.com.

The video will become available on June 13, 2016.

Before the launch on the 13th, we will have a giveaway in the next

couple weeks to give readers a chance to win a free class!


http://www.craftsy.com/ext/CarolNelson_Giveaway


This link will take you to the Craftsy signup/login page, offering

a chance to win the class for free.  A random winner will be

chosen on June 13th.

So many people around the world (literally) write me saying they

would love to attend one of my workshops, but they live too far

away to attend one.

This video is my approach to creating with mixed media.  The

information in it is like attending a 3-4 day workshop with me.

It's not just a bunch of techniques either, there is instruction 

on how I actually use these techniques in creating an abstract

composition.

Holes in Tyvek - it's a good thing.





Here I am working on the Craftsy set.  Those of you who have seen me work know that I am not this neat and tidy.  I have stuff all over the place, but my producer wanted to keep everything clean and organized.


Some examples of work that I will be discussing in the video.
