Grunge Sun

11x15" watercolor paper, golden fluid acrylics, fiber paste, gesso, white gelly roll

I'd planned to journal on the vintage accounting paper I glued in the center, but it just didn't seem to fit. So when in doubt, add gesso! Black gesso, in fact. Perfect for doodling and writing in white ink. Journaled about my love of mandalas. Grungy effects using Golden  fiber paste!
