This picture follows my theme of nature and what I love to do when I am stressed or need to refresh my brain. I went on vacation this summer to Europe. We sailed around Croatia and Montenegro. I needed to get some exercise. When I saw a sign that said you can climb the "Kotor City Wall" I took the chance and did it. It was a wall that went to the top of a mountain. I climbed 1350 stairs and it was very tiring, but worth the relief and exersise!
I printed out my picture on a laser printer. Then I taped it down on a board with clear tape. I painted acrilic gel medium on it and then dried it with a hair dryer. I did this process 12 times so it would have enough layers. After I took the tape off and soaked my picture covered in the gel medium into warm water. I rubbed the paper off and then took it out to dry. I realized that my acrilic gel medium looked so different from the examples. I figured out that I accidently used paint on a couple of my layers. It turned out that my outcome was an acrilic gel medium with paint! I actually liked it better than what it was suppose to look like!
