Canvas-for-Ujjwal

Finger-painting is currently my fave way to paint. Just last month, I was all about the palette knife....*winks* Now, I love using my fingers..smearing random bits, dabbing little blobs...and unifying everything with gesso and metallic paint. :) 


Nothing quite like scrunched up wrapping tissue for amazing texture. 


Just wanted to share a canvas I made for my friend Ujjwal [and her lovely family pictured here]. :)

Create your own supply list for your creative project with this tutorial!
