I love playing with the canvas: color it with any kind of colors; stamp; paste flowers, newspaper clippings, pictures ....
Thanks to Shimmerz, now I can make my paintings, and even more, with a new effect. The Shimmerz products are water based paints and they can be used to tone other water based paints down.
Want do you to see?
One day I took a piece of cloth and ..... after having used very much gesso, glue, Water-soluble wax pastel color, watercolors, some rub ons ... here is the final result.


The wax pastel and watercolors dissolved and mixed with Babys Breath Shimmerz Spritz. All this made brilliant the whole canvas. The flowers seem dewy.



The pages of my art book are sheets 12x12 folded and bound. I drew a small black border around the edges and then I sprayed Babys Breath Shimmerz Spritz to blend it.
I inserted, between the sheets, of the white flowers colored with Vibez and Shimmerz Spritz. I used : Sapphire Shimmerz Spritz, Sunset Strip Vibez, Red-Y or Not Vibez, Hermitte Frog Vibez, Vertigre Vibez and Grape Scape Vibez.
