Black and white


I used eco friendly paints to create this piece.  I painted the background black and when dry, applied a generous amount of green glue, on top of that I applied the white.   I gently dried with the heat gun (hair dryer type), to create the crackle effect.  Once totally dry, I stamped the CI image 283 with black stazon.  I quite like the result.
