The Stretched Canvas in flower-power style combines the modern look of a mural with extravagant wall flower vases. The chip boxes give the picture a cool 3D look. The instructions help you to create your personal art object.
Here's how it's done
For this tinkering diee you need a 50 x 50 Stretched Canvas format. Further materials: wooden boxes, test tubes, beer mats, Acrylic paint, effect glue as well as brushes, scissors, ornaments, pencil and scalpel.
First, draw Stretched Canvas different circles on it with a compass. For the plastic effect the chip boxes and lids should be included. For further effects the beer mats are used, which can easily be cut smaller. Our tip: Mark the different circle elements discreetly with a pencil according to the desired colouring.
Now prime the Stretched Canvas around the marked circles with a light colour mixture of Acrylic paint titanium white and phthaloturquoise. As the paint dries, paint the sponges and beer mats in Acrylic paint Vanilla,white Mangaviolet, and phthaloturquoise using the colour markings. Then paint also the circle elements on the one after Stretched Canvas the colour markings. After the paints have dried, use the scalpel to cut matching holes for the test tubes into the chip boxes. Paint the cut edges with the corresponding colours
Glue the beer mats, chip boxes and lids to the colour-matching positions with effect glue and let the glue dry well. Now put the test tubes into the chip boxes and after hanging up the stretcher frame put a flower on them - ready! Insider tip: If you don't have a compass at hand - no problem at all: some glasses with different diameters will help further. you here
