About this course
You will learn how to transform a cement, plaster or resin mask using an iron patina with an aged and oxidized appearance. We will prepare the piece with shellac, apply successive layers of brown and blue acrylic paint to create depth, and incorporate an oxide effect paint with iron shavings to obtain texture and orange hues.
We will work on the volumes of the face, transparencies and color transitions with dotted brush strokes, strengthening the most prominent areas and keeping the deep parts darker. Finally, we will protect the surface with spray varnish and observe the finished result, with a rustic, metallic effect and full of nuances.
