Royal Enfield painting

Hello readers 😃!!

I am very excited to share with you my new mixed media art. I LOVE riding bikes 💗. I learnt it when I was 15. After finishing my 10th board exams, the whole summer was spent learning to ride it with the help of my uncle. Many discouraged and ridiculed me when I started, saying a girl can't ride a bike or am too young to be able to do it. But without losing hope and with the help of my dear uncle, I was successful in 2 months. Yay me 😁 !! After my wedding I didn't get to ride the bike so much. Only when I visited my parents, I would go around with my dad. Last week I rediscovered my love for bikes and my husband loves Royal Enfield, so I decided to paint this 😃.

I used black, white and green acrylic paints to do the background.

Then I drew the sketch with a pencil.

I wanted to give a 3D look, so I used air dry clay to do the bike. I rolled the clay into thin strings and pasted them using clear dry glue.

When the clay dried, I used gold acrylic to paint over the clay. And Ta Da !!
