Hi! I have another altered paintbrush to share with you. I had the opportunity to create an altered 4" paintbrush for Donna Downey's Studio space. You can read about the project here. I already had done some altered brushes for CHA Summer 2012 which you can read about on this blog post. When I had met Donna Downey at CHA, I heard about this project she was starting and it just fit perfectly! So, I knew I had to do one for her wall. This is my creation!
Some pages with stamps and Gelatos.
It just so happens that I did a UStream class on this project on Tuesday, February 19th for Helmar Live. It goes through the whole process. I used Gelatos, Stamper's Big Brush Pens and the new Gelato Mist Making kit for this project!
Supplies:
Gelatos® in Bosenberry, Blueberry, Grape, Metallic Mint, Lime, Lemon, Tangerine, Mango, Bubble Gum, Margarita Mix, Snow Cone.
Stamper's Big Brush Pen in Black
Gelatos® Mist Maker Set
100ml Textural Accents tub of Gesso
Assorted book papers, sheet music, mixed media paper
4" paintbrush
Pliers
wire
Helmar Adhesives: 450 Quick Dry, Gemstone Glue, and Crackle Part I
WOW Embossing power in Black Regular

Jen, I like your altered paint brush! Great way to up-cycle. Thanks for sharing your art and technique!
I would love to win any of the gelatos or markers to make something as clever.

This project is so awesome! I would love to try this!! I don't think I have any paint brushes this big, ha! Buying a new one is probably not the point huh. Thanks for sharing.
