    I do these all the time, the best stuff is premixed drywall compound less than 9 bucks a gallon and is like icing , if you prime it wall primer then it takes paint really well, the great thing is you can keep adding more if you don't like result, also going over it with watered down paint then dry brushing some of the base coat gives dimention and brings out the texture.

      Exactly. She should make a metal frame around the edges. It looks too blended into the wall and thus look like part of the wall.

    This turned out super cute! As someone who is an artist, i think you did a great job! The only big difference between your work and something you would buy from a "real" artist is its longevity. We use high quality archival materials that will last multiple lifetimes! But as just something fun to do yourself for your home I think its wonderful and I love that you enjoyed making them because thats really all that matters!

      @@shainahector1802 Super Heavy Gesso, molding paste, and specialty texture pastes and gels. The best archival brands are Golden and Liquitex which means they are very pricey because of their quality. Look up Liquitex texture mediums. There are so many to play with!

    Hello....😀😀😀 All you will ever need for texture ! In the artist dept at Hobby Lobby there is a product called Modeling Paste! By Golden, or Hobby Lobby brand . This will go on like you are doing with spatula . It is less likely to fall off. But still be aware of how thick you do. This product makes awesome texture. Dries white and very hard. Also can paint! Good luck😃💕💕💪🏻 you are definitely doing a wonderful job!

    You could also paint it in black first then brush lightly over it in white to accentuate the cracks more

  • @jenb8488
    @jenb8488 4 роки тому +1

    Since the wood filler is stainable I think this would be awesome if you added a little stain to this to give it a bit more depth, also because you said it’s delicate once it’s dried I would recommend using ceramic stucco from liquitex or even super heavy gel medium that are made for art like this 😉it will be a bit more expensive but will last forever.

  • @sheaysczerba2842
    @sheaysczerba2842 4 роки тому +2

    I think if I did this - I would do it the same. I would just hang it on a wall that was painted a color other than white so it pops more.
    But you did awesome at explaining your process. And I love the result.

    Love your idea, if you’re having trouble with the plaster coming off the canvas while you paint it you could use spray paint instead and then seal it with a varnish spray - that way your paint will be protected and won’t fade!

  • @mirandarebornbabymaker212
    @mirandarebornbabymaker212 4 роки тому +1

    When you added the white paint it really brought out the strokes. I like it. Maybe you can paint the wall a darker color, like a gray or something like that. It would really pop then. Nice work

    The brown filler was stainable that’s why it was brown i’m so glad you bought that by mistake because I was wondering how I could do one of those artwork and I wanted it stained on top and painted on the bottom and now you showed me exactly what I can use I forgot about the stainable filler good job I just done a 8 ft x8ft but I use joint compound and thin it down with a little water but the box last forever if u put just a little water on top to keep it moist and seal it up good for around $8 a box good job

  • @NickyNicest
    @NickyNicest 3 роки тому

    Suggestion after trying this out: before you take to a big canvas, test on some small ones. Michael’s sells a 5 pack of 16x20 for $13. Experiment with textures, colors, etc.
    I’d also recommend spending more time on the texturing rather than just slapping on the spackle. Use various sizes of putty knives and paint knives to play around with. Use the kind of spackle that goes on pink. It is way easier to see what you’re doing and dries white of course. There’s also so many different shades of colors so spend some time mixing and experimenting before going big on your canvas. Personally I went black for a more masculine look and it looks sick. Definitely get a frame for it as it just makes it look so much better.
    Overall take your time. Yes this is a relatively easy project but if you want to come up with a unique piece of art you’ll appreciate and not just some DIY thing you did, make sure to experiment and produce the best result you can!

  • @Keegan131
    @Keegan131 4 роки тому +3

    You bought stainable wood filler instead of spackling so it's more of a wood color to blend in with wood when doing wood projects. You can just return the unopened containers or save for future wood projects.

  • @queenb4n6
    @queenb4n6 4 роки тому +2

    Yep, that’s the challenge with whites- there are WAAAYYYYYY more shades of white than there probably should be out there 😄😂!! It might help to offset the wall & canvas with navy blue, dark grey, or other dark framing that pulls some of the other colors in your room/rug up to the wall to tie the room together. Looks really fun to do 🤗!

    Loving your artistic talents. And yes, it is not cheap to purchase such art work. I think you did fantastic! A whole new thing going around but I am really liking it! Perfect! I can also see that you could add to it as you wanted by applying more texture or color later as it would dry the same pretty much. I was thinking on some of the areas that have a ridge you might touch it with a bit of color lighter perhaps as your sofa or plant color or both or perhaps a frame. A faint faint small brush stroke over a ridge/ridges that is dimensional might be an idea. Your home is beautiful and a little pop of color would just bring all the surrounding items together. :-)
    Perhaps I'm just being a MOM ......... LOL It really is lovely and is the perfect accent to your modern style! Thank you for sharing this.....it is a awesome idea!!!

      It is basically a blank canvas. How is it gorgeous. You just like white or something? You racist.

    Maybe you should do what you did in your powder room over top of the texture? You the black paint strokes you and Joshua did... the plain white (while I get it) is a bit underwhelming with the neutral walls.
