New Year's Project #2

I was waiting until my second project made it up on the wall to post, but it's still not up, so here it is.

THE INSPIRATION:


THE PROJECT:

The first part of this project was pretty easy. Just paint a canvas in any way your heart desired.


The next part took the most time. I cut pieces of painter's tape into 1" by 5" pieces. It took a lot of pieces. I had to cut more two or three times. One they're cut, and the painting is dry, put the tape on the painting in a herringbone pattern. I had the inspiration painting open on my screen so I didn't mess it up.


Then, easiest of all, cover the whole thing in white paint. No need to make it look nice, just cover it.


Let it dry a couple hours or overnight and then peel the pieces off. I left a couple on just for effect. And ta-da!


Now I just have to figure out where to hang it.

AND, this project knocks another thing off my 30 by 30 list!
