Have you ever put a couple of colors together only to have something happen that looked a lot like mud? Learn how to make this beautiful background with the colors of the rainbow. It is all about color blending.
It’s guaranteed that yours will be just as beautiful as this picture shows. Suzanne takes the “scary” out of mixing colors. Suzanne Mikulka, CDA is an accomplished artist and a talented teacher. She will help you paint like a pro! The triptych is a group of 3 canvases placed side by side. You can display them as shown here or they can be staggered for another interesting look. Change the silhouette design to Florida palms or anything you like.
This design fits on 3-small canvases or 3 wood blocks. The blocks are extra fun because they can be displayed in so many different ways, including stacking.
Share this cool project with your friends and guests. BRING A GUEST to the meeting. GUESTS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME
