Mixed media altered Divine Jewelry box

Greetings Everyone!

This is Isha Pai and today I am here to share detailed pictorial of Mixed Media Altered Divine Jewelry Box to keep precious ornaments of Lord Ganesha.

Also to mention, I have altered the box using negatives of chipboards, gold rings, beads etc.

Lets begin with the pictorial:

Step 1: I took a MDF box measuring approx 8" x 4.5" and textured it using Diamond Stencil and cement mixed with texture paste

Step 2: After drying of  texture paste, I pasted randomly torn corrugated sheets, the pasted Steampunk Gear set 2 and it's negative in the center. I had many leftover gold/wooden rings and beads which I have pasted randomly as seen in the two pictures below.

Step 3: To make the 3D top layer, I took two negatives chipboards of  a frame and Steampunk butterfly gear added many golden embellishments, wooden rings, wooden flower and ganesha on leaf embellishment.

Step 4: After pasting everything, I applied a coat of Heavy black gesso. Then started the coloring process with metallic paints. I have used a total of 4 metallic paints Bronze moon, Hunter green, Purple Affair. And pasted the frame on the top of the box slightly tilted for a 3D look.

Step 5: Lastly to enhance the look of the box I applied ancient gold metallic paint by using dry brush technique and sealed the colors using a resin spray and also sprinkled Fairy dust. And this is the final look of the box.

I hope the pictorial was easy to understand.
