We are all mad here

Have been working in my small Dylusions art journal, as some of you know I love Cheshire cat so he just had to be in my journal.

DECO ART produscts used:
Media Fluid Acrylics in: Yellow Green light, Cobalt Teal Hue, Titanium White, Raw Sienna. Traditions Acrylic in carbon Black, Media misters in: Primary Yello, Primary Magenta and Shimmer mister in white.  Gesso, Matte Varnish, Glass paint markers in black and white


I gessoed the pages first and use water soluble crayons to create the background, next I used a clear gesso to seal it.

Then I used the misters to finish the background.

The quote is handwritten using the glass paint markers and Cheshire is painted,
First I used a pencil to sketch Chess and then started painting the black outline.  The eyes are Cobalt Teal Hue with a little Yellow Green Light. For the shadow I mixed some cobalt teal hue with a blit black and white to do the chado in the eyes.  The grey used for the shadows ia a mix of black and white. Teath are white and nose is Raw Sienna (mixed with a bit of white for the lighter parts of the nose and white for the highlights)

The border are stamps by Inkadinkado and Archival Jet black ink, I added some white on the stamped images using the paint marker

I used Mr Tea without the sentiment and made a Tea bag holder

DECO ART products used :  Decou Page Matte, Triple Thick Gloss Glaze, Glamour Dust glitter paint in Black Ice and Sizzling Red.
Deco art Media products: Crackle paste, Fluid acrylics in Cobalt Turquoise Hue and Raw Umber.
Americana Gesso, Traditions Acrylic in ultramarine blue.

The tea bag holder is a wooden do it yourself package, so I glued it together and gessoed it. Next was a layer of ulramarine blue to show up in the cracks. Next I addded crackle paste and when dry I used the Cobalt Turquoise Hue to paint it. When dry I added a glaze of Raw Umber Media Fluid to age it a bit.
I coloured Mr Tea using my Polychromos and cut him out. Decou pages him on the teapot and tried to get the cracks in the image (did not work out as planned). When the Decou Page was dry I added 2 more layers to seal it. Left it to dry and added the card symbols using glitter paint. Wrote a senti on the back of the teapot and finished the piece with 2 layers of Triple Thick Gloss Glaze for both protection and shine.

Hope to see you in the challenge
