I used metallic water soluble ink and splattered it on, then tipped the canvas. Thank you for the compliment!! 🙂

I do love the colors. The teal reminds me of a beautiful ocean view, relaxing. Everyone’s color palette is not the same, if so every home would look like the other! Good job, I would love to try this technique!

She showed how it was done, if a person doesn’t like it don’t do it.

I did not prime my canvas, but if you felt that necessary, use gesso the same as you usually would for painting. The canvas has held up beautifully and still looks the same! It isn’t stretched perfectly tight, so if I were to do this project again I would take a few commenter’s suggestions and spray it damp before stretching it and stapling to the back. Good luck to you in trying this project and thank you for sending me your thoughts Donna!

I see this is a couple of years old. How did the canvas hold up? Did it stay stretched tight, or did it loosen over time? Would you do it the same way today? It’s really beautiful, and would be so fun to paint! The cost of artist’s canvases that size is really prohibitive for us amateurs! Great work!

Yes! Penny, this is my favorite paint brush, the Wooster Shortcut. https://amzn.to/2wZjNpV (affiliate link). The rubber handle is comfortable so your hand doesn’t get nearly as tired and the precision/control is excellent. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.
