Mixed Media Workshop with Chris Sullivan

Last Saturday I attended a one day workshop on mixed media taught by Chris Sullivan. In the painting I did I tried to use every technique she was teaching. It started with a quarter sheet of Arches watercolor paper, and the following was added:

     Gesso, applied with a spoon, bubble wrap, and plastic wrap, then scored a bit.
     Watercolor paint.
     More gesso to cover up some things I didn't like.
     More paint.
     Black ink, applied with a brush pen, not with an eye dropper or a stick, as she demonstrated.
     Watercolor crayons and watercolor pencils, dry and wet.

The highly texturized result was "Red Rock Canyon":
