Spray Paint

10/27/2016

Using stencils and spray paint is one of my favorite methods of adding pattern and colour to paintings. I have mixed feelings about it as I realize that spray paint is not great for the environment but, boy, do I love the results. Though I do prefer painting in the garden in the summertime, I am grateful for a heated garage whenever it is required, and having such a large space to work in makes me very happy. I'm getting close to finishing the preparation on these canvases for next year's 52 WEEKS project and have begun doing a bit of research. I'm already getting excited for next year.

Hi Veronica
Thanks for sharing this. It was fascinating to see that you prepare all of the 52 weeks canvases in this way. I was interested to see that the patterns from one run into the next. The posts where you have shared your process are some of my favourites. I am looking forward to finding out what the theme for the next 52 weeks will be.

The first year I created a canvas from scratch each week which was such a huge job and also cut into my painting time for exhibits. I think I prefer to work in this manner because it connects the pieces as a whole series.
