Mixed Media Collage “Tubes” with Yulianna

Hello Gang! Yulianna Efremova here and I’m so excited to be with you this year as a Lindy’s Ambassador.  For this month’s project, I’m going to show you how to make a Mixed Media Collage “Tubes” canvas that I’ve colored with Starburst Sprays from Lindy’s.

The leaves were covered with a mixture of sprays, I’ve used Starbursts: Prima Donna Purple, Delphinium Turquoise, Bells of Ireland Green, Dark Chocolate Truffle, Cape Cod Coral to create my Collage.

You could create a similar piece with your favorite colors.

I wanted to make it easy for you to make something like this yourself, so I’ve filmed a video so you can see just what to do to make this at home.

BASIC PROCESS

1. Cover collage with black ground (gesso)
2. Glue on the tongues (ring pulls) from drink cans (pop, soda etc)
3. Glue on used glue or paint tubes
4. Cover with black primer
5. Create glue stains with glue gun
6. Tone collage white ground (gesso)
7. Cover the background with napkins to protect areas
8. Spray with Lindy’s sprays
9. Paint on finer details using the same colors
10. Mix medium with Lindy’s spray and paint on extra colors
11. Done!
