Nostalgie im Grünen - DIY Mixed Media Wanddekoration

 

Dieses DIY-Wandbild ist ein Geschenk für eine Gartenfreundin. 

Drei einzelne MDF-Paneele wurden mit filigranen Silikonformen verziert und zu einer harmonischen Wanddekoration verbunden.

Die detailreichen Ornamente, Blumen und der kleine Fensterrahmen verleihen dem Projekt einen romantischen Vintage-Look. Lasur und Patina sorgen für einen verwitterten Shabby-Chic-Effekt und lassen die Reliefs besonders plastisch wirken. Dezente Rostakzente, Krakeliereffekte und natürliche Strukturen unterstreichen den Eindruck, als hätte das Wandbild viele Jahre in einem alten Gartenhaus verbracht.

Die zarten Grün- und Türkistöne erinnern an verwittertes Holz und sollen an den besonderen Charme eines vergessenen Gartens erinnern. 

 

 

Forest Friends

 

Forest Friends is an intuitive mixed media project created freely on a wooden frame, without a painted background. The natural wood surface became part of the design and set the organic tone in combination with a touch of steampunk for the entire piece.

 Instead of starting with a detailed plan, I chose to work freely on a wooden frame, allowing the materials themselves to shape the final composition. I used chipboards, outcasts, drying nature elements, feathers, fabric texture and moss. 

 It was both challenging and refreshing. 

 This approach is one of the things I love most about mixed media: it allows mistakes to turn into design features and encourages experimentation.

 

 

 

Chipboards were used to build structure and depth, forming a loose, forest-like composition. Additional texture was added with an outcast from a Green Man Mould, which bring a special detail in form of an old, kind tree face and connect the layers visually.

For the forest animals, I used both embossing powder and acrylic paint.

The Green Man – Spring in the Forest

 

 Sehnsucht nach Frühling

 Durch die Kombination verschiedener Materialien und Strukturen entsteht eine vielschichtige Oberfläche, die das Erwachen des Frühlings widerspiegelt: neues Leben, frische Grüntöne und organische Formen. Das Werk lädt dazu ein, den Wald nicht nur als Landschaft, sondern als fühlendes, atmendes Wesen wahrzunehmen.
