I am away from my house and couldnâe(TM)t stamp this week but did bring my painting stuff as Iâe(TM)m trying to get good enough with dot painting to make ornament Christmas gifts. I decided to try one with this weekâe(TM)s colors, though I didnâe(TM)t have quite the right green and the colors look a little different in the photoâe"the yellow is more of a golden yellow like the color combo. I used white and gold metallic as neutrals.
I painted the raw wood ornament in black gesso, then used craft paints mixed with some pouring medium to get the right consistency, and applied the dots with a variety of sizes of dotting tools and nail styluses. After the first coat dried I added top dots on the larger ones. I have to seal it with some spray varnish when I get home and add a ribbon but Iâe(TM)m pretty happy with this one!
