Paint and Brush WE

Dear blogfriends,

How was your WE?

Mine has been a "paint and brush" WE!

I started a new painting,


did so chalckboard paint projects,



changed the terrible window treatment in the bedroom and painted that last part of the wall,


and applied a second coat on this wall.



I can't wait to show you the final result!

Aboriginal Art : DIY



Here is the original, from the aboriginal artist Jeannie Mills Pwerl :

I used paper, acrylic paint and a brush.
I first painted the all paper in very dark blue.

Then I loaded different paints on the brush and followed Jenny Komenda's secret : "The real trick to painting anything with a brus is to load the brush with a consistant amount of paint every time, lay the paint down smoothly the first time and then resist every temptation to go back over what you have done".



Then I Q-tiped the white dots... (I practiced a bit before)



The trick is to balance the colors...


I framed it in a Ikea Ribba frame... and this is how it turned out :


I am very pleased with it. Below with the flashlight.


I hung it above Anouk's park. This creates such a colorfull nook.

Living Room : Moodboard II + aboriginal art


So, here is the new moodboard...



The painting below is an aboriginal painting by the artist Jeannie Mills Pwerl that I discovered on the blog Ish and Chi (http://ishandchi.blogspot.be/2010/08/artwork-for-living-room.html).

I love that it's abstract and I love the colors.


Soo beautifull.
I tried the DIY!
