Fabric Painted Golden Floral Frame Design

"Earth laughs through Flowers"-Famous Quote

Hello everyone..
Today I have painted a Frame design with flowers and detailed with golden paint..This painting can well be used as a photo frame in which the centre part can be used to hold your smiling photo..Take a look..

Things needed:

A clean and ironed Poplin Fabric:
Poplin is a fabric woven with criss cross ribs of any fiber such as cotton,wool,silk,etc., which gives it a strong texture and it prevents any paint from oozing down through it.

A dark colored Poplin fabric Buy poplin cloth here

Acrylic Paints:
Many different colors of fabric/Acrylic paints. I have used pearl colors for this painting as they look good on dark colored fabric..



Painting Brushes:

1. A Flat Brush No:2 or 3(For color filling)
2. A lettering Brush No:000 or 00(For outlining)

Short and Stiff bristles are preferable..

Painting Frame:A painting frame helps to tighten the fabric and holds it in the stretched form.



Other Essentials:

1. An old cloth for cleaning brushes in between changing colors
2. An old piece of card or paper to place under the fabric
3. Clean water
4. A mixing tray(Optional in case we want to mix certain colours)

Draw the pattern on the fabric using a white color pencil..

 

Fill the flower petals with any pearl acrylic colors.. And fill the small outline of each petal with pearl yellow..

 

Now outline with acrylic black color..

 

With metallic copper acrylic color, Draw stripes over the yellow area of each petal of each flower..

 

From the centre of each petal,draw strokes of golden color...

 Now draw a circle in the center of the frame and color the area between the flowers and the circle with golden color....

The Finished painting looks like this..

Note: For painting with gold,copper and such metallic colors, Gold,Silver or Copper dust can be mixed with acrylic paint medium and used.. They are available as acrylic paints too..
