Painted Ikea Mirrors..Unvarnished..




Start doing the two IKEA mirrors...( Hi Nora..just got to clear all these IKEA wood stuffs )... Simply hands free design...As I was painting the roses...it somehow got sticky..the paint on the brush dries up..still lots of paint on the brush though..myb the room was a bit cold.. I still have to learn how to eyeball the rose size so that there'll just enough space for the petals..not too many or too little. Although some blotches of paint as it dries up fast as I was painting them...it turns out quite uniform....if nak buat placemats lepas ni myb boleh lah sbb dah dpt consistent shapes and colors....Still tak reti nak bega2 kan the background...Nanti lah balik Msia nanti tanya sifu...


p/s..Mona..How do you like them???

Napkin Holders, Signage..In Progress...






I have been trying to get a few days of painting each week..usually frm Sundays till Tues. The other days have to be distributed for my other passions or chases.... I believe the strokes are getting consistent whenever I want to structure a rose. Although it is not the type I really one but it'll do for now. I guess..brushes do play a big part of it in getting certain forms of strokes just right. Other than that..knowing all the stuffs that get into it and practise..practises...
These are the things available around the house now..once finish with wooden surfaces ( Ala.. sifu.. it gives me confident la at this moment..) I will learn the other surfaces. have just got a fabric medium the other day...
