Awfully Big Art Adventure : Altered Tin

The Awfully Big Art Adventure ~ Challenge 10 : Altered Tin


Use sand paper to remove the coat of the tin.



Paint a layer of gesso.
(I'm a bit worry at the beginning, not sure whether the gesso will cover up the not-so-sanded tin.)
Let it dry (time taken about half of day)



Paint with acrylic.



Paint another layer of acrylic.
I use paint brush to create some texture.


Close look on the surface tin after it's completely dry.


Ready for altering.





I'll use it to store my clear stamp.
