Galaxy canvas

,,Sometimes I sit alone under the stars and think of galaxes inside my heart,and truly wonder if anyone will ever want to make sense of all that I am'' - Christopher Poindexter

Hello everyone !!!Today I would like to show you another  piece of mix media art created for Creative Embellishments blog post .
 I love to look on the dark sky with a hundret milion stars . Then I feel so calm and happy .It's marvelous ineed to watch on television the system of stars, spirals , Milky Way and to speculate on what we may yet find at galaxy's edges.This inspired me to create Galaxy canvas..

For this project I used my favorite colors; blue, black , and gold. First I gessoed the whole canvas with White gesso, then I used  Circle Bokeh stencil and modeling paste. When the background was dry. I glued gears , parts of clocks and gauze

To add more layers I used gel medium as a dimensional adhesive  I added steampunk frame , flourish dragonflies and dreamcatcher. to the canvas to create dimension .Then I covered all embellishments with a layer of heavy black gesso.

 I start to spray with lots of mists :pearl black , navy blue, pearl violet ,gold. I also used lots of mica powders : gold , rust ,green , gold opal magic and Purple. In the last step with a brush I sprinkled all canvas with withe gesso.

I linking up my canvas at this challenges;
