Egyptian Influence

I decided to use a piece of corrugated cardboard as my substrate. I got some rather interesting packing recently and wanted to incorporate it too.

I placed some of my recent clay pieces made from Artyco moulds, where I thought I wanted them.

Next I chose the fabulous new heiroglyphics stencil from Artzone designed by Debs Wainwright. 

I cleared the corrugated to create the background using white modelling paste and the fabulous Heiroglyphics stencil. I decided to go all over rather than just where I thought I might need to put it.

Once dry I placed all the other pieces back on and covereded everything in black powertex.

As you can see, everything was covered really well.

Once completely dry, I dry brushed the whole piece with gold pigment to bring out the details.
