Silvery sand…

Day 34 - LOVE the textural quality of Micaceous Iron Oxide! And it fits so well with today’s image - love that little guy’s concentration. The fish stamp is from MadRatRubber. Go see Gretchen’s rubber folks. Awesome! I used the mica right on the substrate, added a layer of Titanium white to brighten it then another watered down wash of Micaceous Iron Oxide on top. Initially I had planned on mixing in some Burnt Umber or cream or more titanium white but liked it just the way it was. Added my new fish stamp - LOVE - then punched in some holes on the top of the image. I was going to wire in some fish bones there but liked the simplicity of the holes as they were so wired in a sand dollar - a coat of micaceous iron oxide over a base of black gesso - at the bottom.
We’re in the middle of a hurricane. Wish us well! Toto, I don’t think we’re in Kansas anymore.
