Kaleidoscope Part 1

 I have been working on a Bizarre-ology Kaleidoscope over a few days, and am splitting this blog into to parts.

This was the start of the project which was painted in black gesso and then over-painted with my favourite Pebeo Blue/Black iridescent paint.

I also made up the kaleidoscope and added the faux leather and some gilding wax.

Inside the "doors" is the  "slides"  holder

The images were created using alcohol ink, and and some small beads

and here is a glimpse of one of the images through the kaleidoscope:












Part 2 tomorrow - the finished item.
