How To Use Citrasolv in Mixed Media Art
Citra Solv can be used to alter the pages of National Geographic magazines – creating unique, textured and inspiring papers that can be used in a variety of mixed media projects. The altered pages lend themselves to be painted on, painted into, collaged, scanned for computer graphic backgrounds – and more! The process has a bit of a magical, addictive quality; every page can be a bit unpredictable! Sometimes it is the page that brings the inspiration to the art.
Materials
- Citra Solv Natural Cleaner & Degreaser
- National Geographic magazines (Issues printed after the year 2000 work the best)
- Spray Bottle (Use one that you don’t mind ruining)
- Table covering and Rubber Gloves (This is messy business!)
