Red Barns

I took this photo

 
 
printed it out on matte photo paper and adhered it to chipboard.  Then I sanded the edges and set it aside and looked at it for a while. (I like Red Barns..and I LOVE Pennsylvania, in case you forget!)

Then I took a 5 x 7 canvas, covered it with Gel Medium and adhered torn pieces of a brown paper bag to it....Then I "painted" on a layer of gesso and wiped it off....then I repeated it.

Then I poured Glimmer Glam on it, wiped it off and repeated.

Then I sprayed Glimmer mist on it...let it sit for a minute...then you guessed it...wiped it off..then I took a scrunched up paper towel and blotted the entire canvas...

Then I let it dry..(I HATE waiting for paint to dry!) then I "painted" on Tim Holtz's Crackle paint...and let it dry..

Then I sanded the edges and adhered the chipboard "Red Barn" to the canvas and added more of the crackle paint to the barn...and let it dry

and this is what I got

 
and it can be yours...for $12.00.  ONE ONLY at ETSY: sold..thank you!..more to come!
