"Hidden treasure" mixed media panel

Hello hello everyone,

How are you all doing these days? This is Madhurima here at Expressions Craft blog page and today I will share with you all a marine-themed mixed media project. 

My project inspiration came from the animated character "Little Mermaid" and was so tempted to create something magical and mysterious with the beautiful newly launched marine-themed chipboards from Expressions Craft. My most favorite has been the mermaids and the mermaid tail along with the sea coral one. To color the background I have used chalk paints, sprinkle mist, metallic sprays, and have used metallic paints for the embellishments. I had tried to recreate a scene where a treasure chest had sunken into the ocean bed and the mermaids are totally enchanted and filled with curiosity seeing the mysterious things it contains. And they are dreaming of the ships and faraway lands.

Here are my project pictures.

" We wander together" mixed media canvas

 Hello guys,

This is Madhurima here, and I am here at Expressions Craft blog page with yet another inspiration. Going by the marine-themed mood, I have decided to play with the sprinkle mists and metallic sprays on a black background this time. And I must say I was totally blown away by the unexpected and amazing results. 

I have tried to create an underwater scene where there is darkness all around and no glimpse of sunlight. How the corals and other sea creatures dwell in there and how a pair of jellyfishes are wandering together to reach the ocean surface searching for light.

 Here I am sharing my project pictures with you all.

Hope you all liked the project today.
