Making Graphic Art Prints Alongside A Paint Pen

When Liz sent her Hands-on art project our way we could not wait to share the outcome with you folks. Here is her letter:

I know that you folks are consistently whipping up fab Hands-on art, so I thought your readers might enjoy this little art project that I did. We have had a wall in our den that has been blank for over a year. At last I chose to spend an evening making a lively and funky little art series that has brought in some much-needed interest to that wall. The best part is that it could not have been easier. If you can wield a paint pen, you can certainly take on this project! In short: I painted the particle board backing that came with my frames (cardboard would also work), used tape to mark where I hoped my scribbles, and grabbed a paint pen to create large white loops. You can check out the whole step-by-step process over on my journal. Hope you like it as much as I do. -Liz

Is not that lively? We enjoy that it looks like an upscale textile or pattern thanks to the sophisticated inky blue and the vivid gallery framing. We would never have guessed that a paint pen was responsible for such fantastic art. Thanks so much for sending your genius project our way Liz! And we’d enjoy to know if anyone at home is planning to take on Liz’s project for their naked walls.
