ya i buy mine at dick blick but in art class that iam taking they teach you how do strech and make the frames , it's not all that hard .

 

To make a canvas with cheap stuff.

all u need is a canvas...
spraypaint, (any color's you please)
and some paint pens. make sure they aint *Decos*. buy *Painters* paint pens, they are water based...


**if you use decos, ur askin for hard times. after a while the ink stops flowing and if you press down it just explodes on you. anyone who has used Decos on canvas knows what im talkin about... maybe its because of the aerosol backround kinda sticks to the nib and stops the flow (????)....**

for the back round use cheap spraypaint. fade different colors. its up to you, and its cheaper to buy cheap spraypaint then to be waste'n ur cash on acrylic's all the time

to make splatter marks you dont need house paint' or any kind of brush. just pick the color you want. Spray a bit on to the Cap (the actual cover of the spraypaint can, not to be confused with Tip :blink: ) Till it builds up a lil puddle and splash the paint on the canvas..

now to make the letters just use the pen, Shake Well!. Its gonna look kinda see through on the first coat. but Let it dry! and go over it again. let it dry good though. a good canvas take days to make, dont try to be like bob ross and do a canvas in 1/2 Hr.

hope this helped....and i hope i dident confuse you h34r:

cost.
Canvas about 3-5$
Spraypaint about 94 Cents Ea. *wal-mart*
paint pens. about 3 $ each..

its cheaper than buyin acrylic's all the time / brushes and doin fancy shit. this will turn out lookin good too. good luck.

I personally like decos you just gotta be carefull plus they dont have many painters at my store

 

what are you guys sayin
decos are dope

 

ya they are good, i agree, they are really opaque (sp)
but they aint really good for canvas use.

 

that wasn't his voce that was ashy larrys i forget his real name

 

decos are just like the others, but they all explode, decos do it more frequently, and dry up faster...... if thats all you got, then i would get them
