Reverse glass painting

This painting was done a year back and is yet to be framed. I learnt this painting in a 2 day workshop long back (almost 9 yrs back). I did a lot of these paintings then but didn't have one for myself after marriage. My paintings are still in my parents place. So did this painting and still haven't taken any effort to frame it... May be this month I will.

This is very easy to do when compared to tanjore art...though it copies same design used in Tanjore art the effect is not the same... Tanjore painting is really special. Well this is a duplicate and cheap form of it.

Painting tutorial- Coffee painting

I have heard about coffee painting long back but didn't try it out. One final day when I found my instant coffee powder all dried up I decided to add little water and felt like giving it a try. Surprisingly it turned out to be such a great work and I couldn't stop with just one painting. Coffee painting is just like watercolor, but you create different shades of brown color to bring fantastic effects.

You will need:

Instant coffee powder

Water

Tissue paper/cloth

Watercolor paper

paint brush-round tip

Here is a quick tutorial on how to do it.

Jute Bag Painting

Teddy bear painting on jute bag...

I got this jute bag for my cousin's wedding with the bride and groom name printed on it... so i painted the printed area with berry wine color and then painted the teddy bear on it using fabric paint.

Painting - Stencil technique - Flowers

I drew my own flower design onto a card stock and created stencils out of chart paper and using dry brush strokes painted them with two colors for each petal. This same idea can be done using fabric paint on any fabric.
