A Day Under The Sea- Mixed Media Canvas

Hello everyone,

Fairuz Fabiha here and welcome to the EC blog. Today I’ll be sharing with you an altered mixed media canvas.


Today’s project is inspired by the ocean and under the sea creatures that mainly came from the expressions craft May challenge mood board. I was inspired by the lovely blues and golden color scheme from the moodboard. 

So here the base used is an old canvas and I’m using it upside down. The composition is done using expressions craft chipboards, natural seashells and corals as well as some clay embellishments and paper cutouts. 

At first I have used EC heavy white gesso to prime the base. Then I’ve used the beautiful bloom stencil along with the dazzling diamond glitter paste and pearl stencil paste to add some textures. For more textures and interest I added the mini and mega deco stones around the composition as well as used dusty rose, frosted silver, right coral punch, intense blue, antique bronze and finally turquoise blue embossing powders from immix. And for coloring the whole thing I used hunter green and mermaid song metallic paints tea cup teal and old metal rust chroma burst and finally royal peacock sprinkle mist.

For highlighting the elements I’ve used jingle shells, Tuscan red, and soft glitter gold metallic paints and amber gold chroma burst.


Finally finished off the project with some dye cut leaves which I colored Using cranberry kiss chroma burst and persimmon sprinkle mist.


All of the products are listed down below along with the website link.

Mixed Media Anchor

Did you know sea horses can change colour?? Sea horses have a special cells in their skin called chromatophores, which gives them the ability to camouflage with the surroundings. Another interesting fact about the Sea horse is that the Torres Strait islanders believe that they bring good fortune. It is considered as a symbol of strength and power. 

Hi everyone
