Work in progress |
I bought some pretty boxes some time ago in B & M, originally intending to paint them as Christmas presents. However, I never got around to tackling them,
My No 2 Granddaughter wanted some bits to personalise her room at her Dad's house, and I offered to paint one of the boxes for her. She wanted black and white/silver. She hasn't seen this yet, so I hope she likes it.
I painted the box with black gesso, and originally I had intended painting little roses around the hearts, but when I practised what I had intended it didn't quite work out as I wanted, so I ended up drawing little hearts using a silver Pebeo marker. I then ran the marker along the grooves in the box.
Finally, I then decided to do some more outlining on the edges and around the inside of the heart shapes. It was then given a coat of varnish using Spray and Shine.
