    I remember from art class and learning to "wrap your canvas" we used what is called Gesso.( I'm recollecting from 30 years ago). Guess it's like a primer for the canvas. Then paint your design.

    Fantastic job!!!! I was a professional artist for many years, and I ALWAYS stretched my own canvases. Especially for custom commissions. If I may, you could invest in a nice pair of canvas pliers, from any art supply, and save your hands🤗

    Super Inspirational! Just finished stretching a 44 x 60 canvas. Canvas pliers are the bomb….plus….my staple gun has a setting for 'wire'. This simply means that the gun will fire the staple in 3/4 of the way… This makes it easy to remove the staple with a pair of pliers for fine-tuning that canvas, and when you are happy, then you just hammer them home.

I added texture with spackle, used leftover paint and stain from my kitchen remodel. I love how it turned out. I even added the picture lights you recommended from Amazon.

    @AM-ou1wt 9 месяцев назад

    Fantastic! I love that the 2/3rds rule with regards to sofa size and art was ignored. We have a huge canvas of a place we have wonderful memories of. It does not meet designer rules but it makes our hearts happy every time we look at it which is throughout the day. One's home should make all people living feel comforted, comfortable and secure. Decor should serve to remind all inhabitants, children included, of the happiest times and hold what is relevant to each persons needs. Ego, showing off, wanting to impress others who live outside the home has nothing to do with family comfort and everything to do with the decorator being insecure and trapped in ego.. Decorating to impress others can even deny a homes inhabitants comfort and joy. Home is where the heart is if each heart within the home is allowed to shine to it's own beat.
