I love art that you can use. These cute little magnets are made with Art on Board, MicaColor , some gesso and 101 Artist’s Heavy Cement.
Pick two or three pieces of Art on Board for each magnet.

- Mica Magnet “Bloom”
Apply a coat of g![]( "mica magnets (1)")
esso to each piece of the Art on Board.
esso to each piece of the Art on Board.After the gesso has dried, paint the pieces in co-ordinating colors of MicaColor ( you
don’t need to paint the center of a bottom or middle piece).
After the MicaColors have dried, the results are like shimmering chalk. The gesso softens the paint color but not the sparkle !
Adhere the pieces together with 101 Artists Cement. After they were dried, a magent was also adhered to the back with the 101 Artist’s Heavy Cement.
For the “bloom” magnet, a small floral painting was done on an old book page, and then it was adhered to the oval. The “Art” magnet was painted with white MicaColor on top of the Black MicaColor.
I hope you find a little inspiration and try these great products in your own version of the Mica Color Magnets. – ann kristen krier
