Faux Mosaic Tile Background Video Tutorial with Art Anthology

I have been having so much fun experimenting with  mixed media techniques and have found a great way to use those samples to make a bigger project - Faux Mosaic Tiles.  This technique lets you combine lots of experiments (if you like) - or just a couple to create a background for canvases.

So come watch my video - and try several new background techniques.
 

Here are more detail shots of the 12 x 12 canvas.

I made this canvas very sparkly and glittery, but also wrote my goals for 2014 around the edges of the canvas to go along with the wishes, hopes and dreams 2014 theme.
