DIY Canvas Art Project

Over the weekend I finally got my canvas art project done that I had been planning out in my head for far too long!

I found this great photo on Pinterest from The Better Half. As you can see she used a wood back drop... mine is canvas. I was looking at the photo on my phone and it wasn't pulling up any directions on how to recreate it so I winged it. 

Here are the steps I took to create this!

1. Taped off the white lines you see.  I didn't have a template so I just kept taping at angles that I liked
2. Then I covered the areas I wanted to be blue and green with paper and taped them down
3. I then took it out back and spray painted the whole canvas grey
4. Once the grey was dry I peeled off the paper and tape for the blue & green colors
5. Next I watered the blue & green paint down quite a bit (craft paint) 
6. Then I took a paint brush and painted the blank boxes. As you can see the watered down paint did bleed through the tape, which is honestly a very pleasant surprise for me! It made it not so uniform.
7. Finally when the paint was dry I peeled off all of the tape to reveal my white lines :D

I believe the photos above help to illustrate the process.

Super easy right!

I am pretty happy with the end result :D
