Madonna & Child artworks.

Working with a picture we each cut out, we placed them on Black painted canvas
and decorated with Gold Oil Sharpie pens.
Supplies:
Canvas
Black acrylic paint
Water
Picture of Mary & Jesus
Mod podge
Gold ink Sharpie pens, oil based
1.
Cover
canvas with a thin layer of water.
2.
Squeeze
some black acrylic paint on the water covered canvas and distribute evenly to
cover the entire canvas. You could also
do very dark blue or purple.
3.
Cut out the picture of Mary & Jesus leaving
mainly their faces.
4.
When the canvas is dry, glue the picture where
desired. When dry, do a coat of glue on
top of the picture to seal it down to the canvas.
5.
Let dry.
6.
Start filling in Mary & Jesus’ clothes and
background with Gold ink pens.
Here is where the idea came from and are
many sample pictures of the decorative inking for the clothes & background
can be found.
