Rust no more! - 'tis done - see the 1st October post for the original object.


Here's some close-ups of various places to show the mark-making & texture created by marks (and a little moulding paste & tissue overlay).


paint, sand, oil pastel, pencil scratched into the oil pastel, soft pastel scratched into other pastel... and so on! This one has some moulding paste beneath the pastel & pencil to give some texture, and some charcoal broken into the paper & dye dry-brushed over oil pastel, soft pastel & pencil.
Later on, I'll post about my trip to Ally Pally - more stash enhancement & some inspiration.
