Example of Kroma Crackle, crackled! |
Today, I purchased a new product called Kroma Crackle, to use in my acrylic painting. As you can see from the sample above, the effect is quite lovely. I could hardly wait to drive myself home to begin using this fascinating tube of goo.
The first thing I did upon arriving home is mix up a little Kroma Crackle with some deep Indian yellow paint and a dab of gold mica powder for that extra bit of sparkle. Then I applied the tinted Kroma Crackle to the upper right and lower portion of the canvas.
As you can see from the pictures below, I also dotted the areas of the Kroma Crackle with some cranberry alcohol ink. It takes 1-3 days for the Crackle to dry. The photos below show us two hours into the process.

My only concerns are as follows:
1) I did not apply the Kroma Crackle thickly enough to achieve the crackle texture I desire.
2) The yellow top coat is too freaking yellow! (I am hoping this can be corrected with a future color wash!)
Overall, I think I am going to love this product and I can't wait to play some more!

Very nice...it's always a treat to use new materials. I always dig it when I can find something new under the sun to incorporate into my jewelry...:-)
