In a fantastic collision of natural and human-made elements, Minneapolis-based artist Gregory Euclide explores aspects of nature, impermenance, and the human experience in unusual relief artworks that seem to grow and drip from vertical surfaces. Some sculptures are framed inside boxes, contained worlds of topographical chaos incorporating plastic, foam, paper, model elements, architectural and geometric elements, paint, ink, and a host of other mediums. Other artworks are mounted atop standard whiteboards found in classrooms, a nod to his role as a teacher where he’s been known to paint elaborate sumi ink landscapes during his lunch break—all of which are subsequently erased.

Dogs are faithful and inseparable friends. When my first daughter was born, Francisco was already among us. She lived with him until she grew up.

For many people in the coastal region, being able to see a blue or a humpback whale is not a rare occurrence, leading to a lucrative bio-marine tourism industry. Ironically, Peruvian beaches are some of the most polluted in the world. I've been involved in two annual beach-cleaning projects and have been stunned by the countless bottles and plastic bags that spread across the shoreline of Lima alone. This is a factor that inspired my piece. My art project is my version of the "iceberg" metaphor: people can only see the portion above the surface but are oblivious to the portion undersea. I feel this is the case in Peru (as in many other countries); people can appreciate the whales yet fail to realize that by continuing to litter the sea with their plastic waste, they are responsible for the extinction of this cetaceous, which may unknowingly mistake the plastic for food. Therefore in my work I portray a whale emerging from the water - while the portion above the water is a regular painting of the animal, the submerged portion is the outline of the whale made completely out of plastic waste. I used acrylic to paint the upper whale and watercolours for the sea and sky. For the submerged portion I made a collage, pasting real plastic wrappers that I had painted and cut to resemble real waste.

Hi everyone hope you're all well today! Popping on to share a canvas that I've made as a charity raffle prize which was originally going to be modeled on my art book design here. After going through my images I found this image which included a nurse which was perfect for the Macmillen cancer support charity coffee morning that a friend is holding. The image dictated the colour scheme and style which is very far away from the style of my original idea. I may still make a canvas based on the art book at some point as it's one of my favourite entries so far. I painted my background first with a mixture of Williamsburg blue and Lemonade green Deco-art paints and then added the image by the gel transfer method. After that I took a Ronda Palazzari feather stencil and spread some glass bead paste through it around the edges fanning them out towards the canvas edges. I did a bit of stamping around the canvas in black with a Kaisercraft music and script stamp and in white paint with a dictionary stamp then I went on to add a piece of wide lace that I'd sprintzed with colour and all the flowers. Some of the flowers I made myself with the Tim Holtz tattered florals die and tyvek fabric which I coloured with the same blue paint as the background and shaped with heat. There are lots of Frantage Embossing Enamels added around the canvas: aged gold, shabby white, aged red, aged black, shabby blue and I added a painted Ideology metal sentiment band at the bottom right. I spritzed the canvas a little bit with some Dylusions spray inks, mainly the white dragged a bit of the Lemonade paint over the flowers here and there. I've also added some pearl pen pearls and inked around the edges and over the top of the canvas in black ink. If you've read to the bottom of this post..............I like you very much :D. Enjoy your day.

Hello Mixed Media Friends! We're so excited to be meeting again to stretch our art muscles in our new Creative Gym Exercise! This month's challenge was prepared for you by lovely Pascale and it looks like this... :) As always - you can create anything your heart desires - layouts, canvases, journal pages, cards, ATCs... anything! What are the rules? please combine black backround + all the colors of the rainbow. Does is sound exciting? If you still need inspiration, here are some beautiful artworks by our Design Team, we are sure they will spark your imagination! The idea for this piece was growing in my head for a long time. And suddenly I realized that it goes perfectly with our new challenge on Mixed Media Place. I wanted to do something abstract, geometric, with contrast and very vivid colors. I started by creating some geometric pattern and coloring it with all kinds of paints - Twinkling H2Os, Ecolines, Lindy's Stamp Gang mists. It took hours... very very happy hours full of calm and focus. :) Then it was a time for creating my black background. And to be honest - I spent about three hours creating it, 'cause my black still wasn't looking the way I wanted. Then the blissful inspiration came - and it was ready! And I was absolutely over the moon with it. And... an amazing story happen. The "blissful inspiration" was "just" a song. I love creating with music around me and it has to be the right music for the specific moment. I was really struggling with my black background, so I texted my very special person asking for musical inspiration which would change my mood - works every time. ;) I chose Hozier first. And before the first song on the album ("Take me to church") ended - my background was ready. And - the next morning - amazing and talented Marianne Johansson (who is by the way our new designer in Mixed Media Place!) posted on facebook a video to the very song that made me so inspired. I can't even tell you on how many levels it moved me. It's just something magical, spiritual, so deep and meaningful to me... It's just a perfect fit for my piece. Creating something like this brings so much joy to me. No masks, stencils, stamps, no scrapbooking products - just paints and pure creativity. You should really try this - if you haven't already. :) Materials from Mixed Media Place: I adore colour, deep and rich and lots of it, and colour looks great on a dark background. Producing this piece really made me think. I have not used any coloured papers or white gesso (except for a very small section under some tissue) on top of my black background, so all the colour comes from modeling paste, distress stains, embossing powders, sequins and thread. I had to think in reverse… normally we add black highlights onto white backgrounds and colour shows up very easily on a white backgrounds, but not on black. I started with a piece of 12x12 chipboard and coated it with Heavy Black Gesso. Using a Finnabair church windows stencil (available soon!), I pressed embossing ink through it and embossed with white and did the same with a multi circle stencil and embossed with gold. All the chipboards have been embossed with white or gold. Now to introduce some real colour. I splattered several colours of Distress Stains onto my black background, the colour disappeared straight away, I could see where it was wet but not what colour it was. Before it dried completely, I spread Modeling Paste through the Prima Elementals “Harlequin” stencil and the modelling paste picked up the colour beautifully. Did the same again with the small diamond stencil and Finnabair’s Doily Stencil. I was aiming for a sort of “churchy stained glass” effect. As always I had to add some tissue at the base of the photo. What I love about tissue is its transparency, but on black it was never going to work. So I traced around the tissue shape, filled it in with Heavy White Gesso and then stuck it down with Soft Matte Gel. White embossed chipboard, stuck down with 3D Matte Gel, coloured threads, sequins, gold embossed background and Finnabair Doily Stencil used with modeling paste and Distress Stains. Materials from Mixed Media Place: I started by creating my statuette : first, I made a wire structure, then with polystyren, aluminium foil, masking tape, I gave some volume to the future Miss Butterfly. A mix of Powertex and Stone Art helped me to model the chest, the arms and the head, then I created a plaster face. When the chest was dry, I arranged some linen and paper around the body of the statuette. I used some Gold Silks to highlight the paper. I decorated the pedestal with a stencil and a 3D Matte Gel. When dry, I primed the pedestal with black Gesso, then with black Powertex. I used some Gold Silks to highlight the design too. I colored the butterflies die-cut in a watercolor paper with Twinkling H2Os and Gelatos. I finished them with a light touch of gold wax. Materials from Mixed Media Place: This palette is an ode to Black Gesso and Pan Pastels. The moment I saw the new pearlescent Pan Pastels and tried them in my mini album for my husband, I have been dreaming about doing this kind of project. So this challenge was the perfect playground to bring out the bibs and bobs, the gesso and the lovely pastels! The effect is similar to that of oil but much softer. The colors are brushed on top of the plain colored black and shimmer in turquoise, green, blue, gold and white. These kinds of projects are perfect to use all the strange bibs and bobs. Can you find a juice cap there? Or old money? What about two metal catches from an old bag? There's also a Christmas decoration, pair of old scissors, two markers that didn't have any coloring left, an Ikea pencil, several bottle caps and several blooms. Materials from Mixed Media Place: I created a card using 7 Dots Studio Illumination paper as my background and then I applied a few colors of acrylic paints using stamps designed by Nathalie Kalbach and also as splashes (using a brush from this set). All acrylic paints are by Claudine Hellmuth. I altered 7 Dots Studio Nature Walk chipboard pieces using Emboss It dabber from Ranger, Embossing Sticky Powder and Finnabair Glitter Set - Abloom. The edges of the card are finished with Prima Chalk Ink. Materials from Mixed Media Place: And now it's time to announce the winner of our Creative Gym Exercise #4. However, this month we decided to do it differently. Kasia's Exercise was all about no judgement and no pressure so we decided not to vote this time. Somehow, we thought it wouldn't be fair to decide on "the best" work. That's why this month we are using random.org to choose the winner. And the winner is.... ...
