    I love this one. So many people strive for uniformity and perfection. I love a textured, organic feel so much better

    It's the water in the glue or paint that causes the bubbles because steam forms as it heats up. If you don't want bubbles you have to wait for it to dry before putting the tiles in the oven.
    Also, make sure the windows are all open when you do this because the fumes are very toxic and you can't smell them!
    I did some outdoors with a heat gun and it worked ok.

    I love the air bubbles! I made some large pieces for a mobile using colored plastic glasses and I had loads of air bubbles that made the discs really look cool. Thanks for sharing.

    Love this so much. Thanks for taking the time to do the tutorial. It's a very creative way to repurpose those unwanted CD's. I'm kicking myself though coz I threw out about 100 last year - freebies from old computer magazines. They would have been perfect for this. It's strange how you put on yellow and white and it comes out greenish. They really look like glass xx

    Very good idea, brilliant. You mentioned on one of your video's last week that you may do an online tutorial for journalling? I got myself some clear gesso, gessoed over some oil pastels, but when I tried outlining my drawings with the white pencil that you use ....it pulled the surface off the page. I gesso'd it last night so it had plenty of time to harden?

    • @michellekralartist
      @michellekralartist  7 ปีที่แล้ว

      thank you :)...oh dear! well you found the only medium that the gesso doesn't work well over! it really doesnt like oil pastel especially if you try and draw on top, oil pastels don't seem to loose their oiliness when dry and the water based gesso doesn't like to adhere to it very well so when you "pull" over the top of it with a pencil it slides off....sometimes it does't work over neocolours if its really thick :/ hope it didn't ruin your painting too much.

  • @Andeana13
    @Andeana13 7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Righty ho thankyou for the info. It's knowing the products (trial and error and lots of practice I guess). I liked the oil pastels, nice to blend together.

    I really like these. If you don't have that hole maker, what else can you use? I have a hole puncher but I think it will crack.

    • @michellekralartist
      @michellekralartist  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Carol Centracchio you can heat up a metal needle or knitting needle and poke it through

    • @lzrd8460
      @lzrd8460 6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Or even a metal awl will work. Just heat it up and it goes through CDs like butter.

      i think if you took your time to paint the discs and let the paint dry you will get a more controlled effect...i havent experimented that much ....

    If you eliminate the word "um" from your vocabulary your vids would be shorter and more appealing. I can't get past three minutes. Be prepared, have a general idea what you will say and leave out superfluous words and actions. Just a suggestion.
