Got my Eyes on You DIY Canvas Tutorial
Halloween is a great time to play around with new ideas! There’s always so many awesome things at the stores to inspire creative art projects. This simple canvas takes only a few supplies and is easy to create for any skill level.
What you’ll need:
6x6” piece of cardboard
Light modeling paste
Acrylic paint- 2 colors
3D eyeballs (I got mine at Michaels)
Paint brush
Detail paint brush
Spread a thin layer of modeling paste over your cardboard square (I use an old business card to do this).
Drag a small piece of paper over the modeling paste to create lots of rich texture.
Push your eyeballs firmly into the modeling paste randomly throughout the canvas. Let dry completely.
Paint the whole canvas with your main color and let dry completely.
Lightly brush your accent color over the whole canvas.
Use the detail brush and your accent color to paint around each eye and over several of the texture details. Let dry completely.
Happy crafting,
Misty
