I was inspired by this pin I stumbled across one day. I had a large and small wine cork, the end of a pencil eraser, and some basic black and green paint. Nothing too fancy about it. It was rather meditative to stamp out all the dots to fill in space. I decided to add the two large spots of green to give a little more visual interest. I debated whether I should fill in the black dots completely, but I rather like the texture it has being imperfect.
All the details really come together to make a great finished piece! The green, the variation among the black dots (size and coverage), the pattern you made. Is it on a stretched canvas? About how big is it?
@TheMistressT it is sort of on stretched canvas lol. I had a large ugly framed painting that I wanted to upcycle so I stretched some basic white cotton cloth over it, stapling in the back, boom instant canvas. I did prime the base with gesso since the fabric was slightly see-through. It’s about 23" x 26".
Brilliant reuse! And wow even bigger than I thought! Even though I know good and well the the size of corks and erasers, the first pic didn’t give me as much as an understanding of the size and the second which got me curious.
I would have shown more of the room to give a sense of scale but um…its a bit of a mess right now. I’ll try to remember to post an updated shot with something for scale.
