Creating a relief painting with acrylic paint is ideal for adults who enjoy creative crafting projects. By applying thick layers of paint, you build texture, depth and character. With simple materials, you can design a modern artwork that becomes a striking focal point in your home or workspace.
Unpack the canvas and stretch it onto the frame using the provided wooden bars. Hammer the bars firmly into the slots of the frame to ensure the canvas is taut.
2
Prepare the canvas by applying a thin layer of white acrylic paint. Allow it to dry thoroughly.
3
Lay out the set of pastel acrylic paints and arrange the tubes in the order of use. Squeeze a generous drop of the first paint colour onto a palette knife or spatula.
4
Position the palette knife in a corner of the canvas, pressing it flat to spread the paint towards the edge, then pull the knife backwards.
5
Repeat this process with the next paint colour, creating a "brickwork" pattern.
6
Increase the amount of paint with each successive colour, covering the entire canvas from edge to edge.
7
Continue repeating these steps until the entire canvas is filled with overlapping paint droplets.
8
Gradually reduce the number of paint droplets with each colour towards the end. Keep going until the entire canvas is covered. Then, allow it to dry thoroughly and cure.
