My first post of 2009, where does the time go! This 5x7 Canvas fits the theme over at WednesdayStamper & Thank God It's Friday where this weeks themes are Gesso & Dogs. I like the effect the thick layering of Gesso has given the border to this canvas, I then splodged Alcohol Inks (Oregano & Rust) to add colour, along with Distress Crackle Paints for more texture.

Gorgeous Gillian - beautiful colours and textures. Love the combination of the 2 different leaf colours.
I never considered using AIs with gesso. Something new to try.
The way you framed the central image is gorgeous. I really, really love your art.
