  • In this video, we are hopping on one of the hottest trends in the art community for 2023 and that is Thrift Store Ghost Paintings! For this trend, go to your local thrift store, grab some old paintings and turn any old picture into Halloween decor by painting ghosts or other Halloween favorites. As much as we love this trend, we know it can be a bit scary (pun intended) if you don't feel comfortable free-handing these designs. But it doesn't have to be spooky (pun intended) because you can use your STENCILS! We show you several examples of how to use your Halloween background and pattern stencils to create this super fun trend!
    In this video, you'll learn how to paint on different surfaces, like paper, pre-printed canvas, frames and glass. You'll also learn how to choose which type of paint to use for the different surface and how to pick and choose bits and pieces of your stencil to create a story.
    Check out some of our favorite stencils designs for this trend here: studior12.com/collections/thr...
    Tune in every Tuesday at 12pm eastern, right here on UA-cam for a LIVE Q&A with the artists of StudioR12 Stencils. Each week we answer your questions about painting, crafting, DIY projects and stenciling.

    I've never seen this kind of craft before but I love it. I'll be making a trip to the local thrift stores today to see if I can find any art work to make some of these. Thank you for the great tips and ideas.

    Could be expanded beyond Halloween and add big foot to woodsy scenes. Or UFOs. Or anything holiday related like Santa Claus or Cupid or paint Jack Frost in a winter scene

      We are so excited you feel confident doing this free hand! That is excellent!! We made this video for those who don't have that confidence. We've had several people tell us they didn't try the trend before now because they didn't think they could do it free handed. And we are a stencil company, so you'll find a lot of stencils on our channel ;)
