Flower Tag


I covered a large mdf tag with a mix of cotton scrim and black powertex, I then powertexed a piece of fabric mesh over the top of it.  Cut a couple of polystyrene balls in half and added some rusty hardware.


Then I used green pigments and coloured the background. I used violet and red interference pigments on the balls.


I added gilding paste to the hardware and left it to dry for about an hour.


I placed purple metallic foil over the gilding paste and then added rusty nails to the balls.


Added a piece of ribbon and went outside and hung it from a tree to take some photos.


It's quite 3 dimensional.


I love the colours.


And finally a close up.
