Step-by-step instructions
Step 1 - Canvas
We offer a large selection of canvases in the shop: square, rectangular, round, narrow, or wide. Different formats are suitable for experimenting. For beginners, a smaller canvas is recommended.
Step 2 - The first layer
Start with a base coat, which means: the first layer of paint that covers the entire canvas. Perfection is not necessary here, as this layer will be painted over later.
Step 3 - The Play of Colors
Ideally, start the composition with light colors and work your way up to darker tones. This allows you to layer multiple coats to create more depth.
Tip: Trust the process; let the creative flow develop naturally.
Step 4 - The Finish
Any number of color layers is possible. Deciding when a work is finished is a personal choice. It is important to sign the painting and note the day and date on the back. This way, the piece remains a special memory for years to come. The result: an individual piece of art that adds personality and vibrancy to your home.
