How to make your own Art deco artwork
Create with paint! Projects from habitat by Resene
Add colour to your walls with your own art. It’s one of the easiest ways to create an artwork that perfectly complements your colour palette.
You will need
- White canvas
- Resene testpots in your choice of colours; Nikki used Resene Paper Doll, Resene Wax Flower, Resene Galliano, Resene Mischka and Resene Sea Nymph
- Paintbrushes
- Masking tape
- Ruler and pencil
Instructions
- Use the masking tape to create three sections on the canvas.
- Paint the first section in Resene Mischka and the third section in Resene Paper Doll. Leave to dry.
- Mark out the pattern in the middle section using a pencil and ruler, and mask out using the tape.
Top tip: Consider creating your design across 2–3 canvases so you can display them as a set.
