Description: | |
This is a US swap. 1 partner, 1 piece of art, made by you and painted using saran wrap or other plastic wrap. The artwork piece can be as small as an atc/atc coin, a handmade postcard or notecard (blank or written to your partner), or a 4x6 to 5x7 size painting! You can use oils or acrylics or watercolor and apply it using plastic wrap!! You can use a brush to embellish or outline the work but please leave the bulk of it clearly visible! Plastic wrap is a great way to create a background or details using stencil or masking tape. Tape, stencils are also allowed or you can use white crayon for a resist look - get messy and get creative! Your artwork can be representational or abstract. Please cover at least 75% of the surface area with art - although some can be simple background. Tutorials and ideas can be found here and here and here Yes, it's gonna be messy:) Leave time to allow your work to dry - this does not need to be an overly texture item. If you are instagram, post a pic with the hashtag cpgswap! Hopefully this should mail for one stamp. |
