Gesso and Ink background


This is half of the 12" x 18" background I created inspired by Maggie Grey's book Textile Translations
The base is Timtex, layered with tissue paper and handmade paper, fusible webbing, gesso, inks, and acrylic paint sprays. I haven't added any metallic highlights yet, nor any stitching, as I'm not yet sure what I am going to do with this particular piece. I love the texture though!

I love the texture on your piece. I have not tried using the Timtex as a base for paper art. I will try it.
Thanks for the kind comments on my Zentangle and ATCs
