Canvas Techniques
Flying Unicorn is celebrating the start of those lazy days of summer. June's "Your Passion Your Art" features a 13Arts collection that really feels like a warm relaxing summer day - hazy, warm and dreamy. Without further adieu we offer you our June - Your Passion. Your Art kit of the Month
Included in each Main Kit, is always a fun and unique "off the Page " item. We have the perfect "Off the Page" piece to help celebrate - a sweet wooded lighthouse.
I decided to make a shadow box scene by combining the black canvas from the Mixed Art kit for June and the OTP from the main kit.
I painted my canvas first. Then decided to add my lighthouse. I toyed with cutting the thing in half. Decided that it was not realistic.
Yeah - it was quite the challenge to get that lighthouse into the backside of the canvas. It did involve a few impolite words I must admit. It also involved a significant amount of persuading and ultimately some gentle pounding with a mallet. Alas - my sweet wooden lighthouse is never coming free from this wooden canvas frame. It is wedged very snugly.
With that, I proceeded to gussy and decorate.
