Mechanical Maritime Adventure Box
Inspiration: I found a box at a garage sale with a nautical map pattern on it and added nautical and steampunk elements to the box including moulds, three-dimensional items, chipboard and mechanical elements. I was very excited at how it turned out. I hope this inspires you to create something fun!
Description: I attached moulds, three-dimensional
items, chipboard and mechanical gears and screw heads sealed with Finnabair
Art Basics Heavy White Gesso and
attached with Finnabair Art Basics Heavy Body Gel. I blocked it in colors with acrylic
paint and added texture paste sand. I then added Red
Rust, Yellow Rust, and Brown Rust Finnabair Art Extravagance Rust Effect Paste
to give the elements a rusty look. Burnt Siena liquid acrylic was added to give
depth to the piece. Gears, sprockets, and screw head embellishments were added
to give contrast to the rusty base art. Finally, Finnabair Art Alchemy Metallique
Ochre Wax was applied to give the piece some additional highlights. The final
piece measures 8” x 7” x 4.5”.
