We recently changed our bedroom colors to dark gray and yellow and have been lacking on art work so I figured I would undertake a little project. Several months ago I came across this painted dresser on
So I took the design and translated it onto a canvas. I started with a blank canvas (I think it was 40''x28'') from Michael's.
I started by painting a base coat of mustard yellow.
I then taped off even diamonds across the canvas.
Next I painted the entire canvas gray.
Peeled off the tape and had these perfect gray diamonds.
Then I took some gray paint and feathered the edges of the diamonds.
Then I used a dark purple to paint smaller diamonds inside the gray ones.
And finally I used a magenta to add a third diamond inside the gray and purple.
And I was finished! Tada! New art for the bedroom.
