Chicken Teriyaki Bowl #7

Today’s art journal page was very interesting, both from a technique standpoint and from what it revealed.  I started out with a large image of a carved door and did layers of acrylics and stamps with rubber cement resists.

For the last layer I just went nuts with the rubber cement and coated the entire page with Payne’s Grey.  The result made the carved parts of the door look like little god figurines.  It made me think of looking through the mists of time, which I envision as seeing on a TV set, so I drew a TV set and journaled inside it.

What I learned is that you need to have all the layers to understand the bottom layer properly.

With Each Layer More is Revealed
