Work in progress

The start of a small canvas piece in the Women's Suffrage Series - forced feeding.

I am laying down a base coat here.

The right hand side has been gessoed, painted with acrylic paint and dyes and then overstamped with metallic paints.

On top of this I have bonded a layer of Bondaweb which I have then heated with a heat gun and then sprinkled with chunky embossing powder.

You have to do this a section at a time as you have to sprinkle the powder on a warm surface and then pat it down. When it looks attached to the base, you then zap it with a heat gun which causes the powder to melt.

I have overpainted parts of this with a mixture of metallic paint and lustre powder.
