Welcome Guest Slammer, Audrey Hernandez - Faux Rusted Wire

I found Audrey’s blog after reading one of Somerset Studios’ magazines. I loved everything about her blog and her work. She makes me want to try new techniques and paint all the time. I hope you enjoy this project she prepared for the Art Slam. She is truly one talented artist.

In her words: Did you ever do the latchhook kits when you were young?  Well, I am using the latchhook canvas material for my piece. You don’t have to buy a kit to get the material; you can purchase it by itself.  My favorite technique is the faux rusty wire where I used a rust solution on it.  My finished piece using the faux rust wire. I love it since I don’t like dealing with real wire and bending it or rusting it. The material is very flexible, so it bends around like a canvas.


Audrey says the white paper behind the transparency of Montana is textured wallpaper.

Stumble it! Stumble It!
