Tree roots

Comments

This looks good , it’s amazing how the roots get so tangled and spread in the woodlands, this is a really good image of that.

Very effective, Carole. What are the metallic waxes you use?

Brilliant work Carole and that metalic wax really brings it to life.

Thanks again for your kind comments, much appreciated. Jenny I use ‘art alchemy’ metallic waxes made by Prima Finnabair.

There's really no end to your creativity, Carole! This is really well done, you've really captured the feel of the woodland floor.

Gesso, tissue paper, acrylic paint. When dry, gently rubbed with metallic waxes. Our wooded walks are like this, the paths are a network of surface roots.
