Get crazy wit' the cheese whiz...or Glue...

I recently saw a textured painting tutorial online, and because of my absentmindedness I can't recall where. (Trust me I looked through my history & couldn't track it down.) But it reminded me of a textured painting I did myself & I left hidden in the garage somewhere to be forever forgotten.
The tutorial used some kinda tempura mixture to make the surface "bumpy." Here is my version.

You Will Need (4 things)

  • 1 Canvas
  • 1 bottle of Craft Glue
  • 1 Acrylic Paint (use whatever colors you want)
  • Paint Brush (misc. sizes)

Steps (4 steps, 20 minutes)

  1. 1

    You can salvage an old used canvas if you want. I actually started off with a blank one.
    I used craft glue (it's thicker) & drizzled it all over my canvas.
    Depending on how crazy you get with the glue, you may need to wait 1 -3 days for the craft glue to completely dry.

  2. 2

    then paint!

    This was the horrible mess I made & hid in the garage for a bit...

  3. 3

    Now this is where the other "tempura" project inspired me... I changed the colors...

    I used some light blues & greens...

  4. 4

    TA-DA!

    Now, I just need to figure out where I'm going to hang it up...

    This took me less than 20 minutes only because I had the clue done already... Most likely this can be completed in one weekend. I'm thinking about making more in various single colors & selling them as a set... We'll see.

    Thanks for looking!
