Stencils



I've took a photo from my stencils and made an art using various stencils together.

Working with stencils - How to























I've used a design like Andy Warhol. because he begans with this kind of art.

1. Transfer a black and hite design on a plastic sheet.

2. Lay it over a glas plate and cut the black shapes out.

3. Lay the stencil over a white sheet o paper.

4. Spray it with paint.

5. It's done.

Working with stencils - III - Fabric



Work with stencils are addictive. Here I used them over fabrics.

In this case you must use a foam roller and fabric paint.

Paint the fabric first and then make your totes, pillo cases, table runner and everything you want with a personal note.

Working with stencils II - Pattern


If you don't have Photoshop or can not work with it, here are two pic for free use.

Copy this pics to a transparency (but these one for laser printer) or any other plastic sheet. You must use a overhead projector pen. With a knife cut the black shapes out.

I'll post some pictures later how you can do this.

Then I spray over with spray paint or go over with a brush and acrylic paint.
You can also use a foam roller.

I tryed it with ink stamps and it works. With stamp ink you'll have a soft picture.

Working with stencils


























Michelle Ward Crusade wants some art with stencil. Here I have some journal pages I made, with acrylic underpainting and painting the stencil with acrylic.

I don't like to use the sprays, because the place I work on is too small and i don't like the smell from the spray paint. But I made the same pic with spray.
