Finished the 'Ferns' Picture

Finished the 'Ferns' Picture I have been working on



Put the picture into a temporary frame to see how it hangs on the wall. More details of this and other work can be found at iansanday.com

I started off with placing dried fern leaves on the canvas, then painted the whole canvas in grey acrylic. Then dripped PVA glue trails and added sand. When dry I dropped acrylic inks on and moved the canvas about to get them to run around. As the ink was still wet I added some multicoloured glitter to give it a sparkle (which you can't see very well from the picture) and then finished off the ferns with metallic green.
