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.

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.

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. |
