FILL IN THE BLANK

in #art6 years ago

It has really been a long time that i have not been active on steemit due to some personal reasons,but i have also been working on painting these pair of hoofes

the above image is how the shoes looked before i painted them, i had to use masking tape to cover the area that had to be left clean and white, stuff the shoes with old newspaper to make the surface on which i had to apply the color firm and hard, i used fabric paint to cover the shoes with.
i started by making a spider web shaped cut out on paper and placing it on the shoes and then using a toothbrush in order to spray adequate amount of paint,the masking tape helped avoiding the unexposed part of the shoes that had to be kept white as it is
after i was done spraying the paint i took off the web shaped paper cut out which left an impression of the spider web on the shoes,then all i had to do was add in the patterns using different colors and the right amount of water
i had to be sure that if i add to much of water there were chances of the color spreading all over the shoes and if i didn't use water at all it would give the paint a glossy finish which is not what i had in mind i wanted the shoes to have more of a matte finish
here are the results below

in this image you can clearly see all the patterns and also that the paint has not left a glossy finish
pealed off the extra masking tape revealing the area that had to be kept white,perfectly washable the color doesn't come of by any means but there are chances if one doesn't use water the thick coat of paint can be pealed off
but in this case its perfect
