Collaged Tag


I started off by painting a wooden tag using Liquitex heavy body paint in a range of colours, blue, green and yellow and also added green golden high flow paint, mixing it up until I liked the look of it. I added some stencilling with snowflake fresco.


I decided I wanted to collage all the images, so took lots of different stamps out and just randomly stamped on the background, but masked each image off along the way, again until I was happy with how it looked.


And finally added black posca pen to the white bits and white posca pen to the black bits!!

Ooh, Sam, I love this - not seen you work with green for a while! The masked stamping is absolutely superb, and so is the white/black highlighting.
