Make this: As Good as Gold Canvas Art

Make Good as Gold Canvas Art at Craft Warehouse

Here is what you’ll need:

Supplies:

2 White 12” x 16” Canvas
DecoArt “Spun Gold” acrylic paint
Acrylic paint color of your choice (the blue shown here is Americana Acrylic Paint in “Zinc”)
Acrylic paint color of your choice (the orange shown here is Ceramcoat Acrylic Paint in “Poppy Orange”)
Foam Brush

Directions:

1. Paint your canvas with 2-3 layers of the Spun Gold acrylic paint over the whole canvas. Let dry between coats. (Tip: You could use other metallic paints, but this particular one is less translucent, so it took less coasts to cover the canvas well).

2. Brush on your colored paint, giving each canvas uneven strokes with each color.

3. Allow to dry then give it more coats if needed.
