Day 8 in 30x30 project – It’s never too late

 
I decided to use up all the numbers that I have in my “thicker” collection. I coated a page in a “buff” acrylic, then began adding the stickers and puzzling them all together. When done, I painted everything the same “buff” color. Bringing out all of my metallics (which I love), I painted everything using some shading. I was stuck for a few days on what to do with all the numbers until I realized I had a bunch of gears/time/clock type rub-ons, so I used those. This was tricky because the numbers are raised, but I think it looks interesting. I added some 3D elements in the form of gears. I decided on a quote, added it and some rub-on words that go with it.
