The new Andy Skinner Stencils are fantastic, I particularly like the snake skin style which create fabulous textures
and a great opportunity to use with the beautiful Andrea Matus Demeng Talaya Stencil
I started by applying torn newspaper with DecoArt Media Matt medium to a 12''x12'' Clarity Canvas Board
Once dry, I applied strips of gathered tissue paper with Media Matt medium
Applied the lightest colour tones of yellow, orange and violet wiping back with a wet wipe to lighten and blend and gradually building up the darker colour of Violet and Purple towards the edge
Again wiping back on the raised modelling, crackle paste and tissue areas
Stencilled the Talaya with Dioxadine Purple, heavier in the centre blending out towards the edge and the same with the word from Andys Serendipity Stencil
