We are using a 4x12 canvas to create a glass cross on a pretty black and gold background. I'll show you exactly how I paint the background and create my cross out of glass strips. We'll also add some extra crushed glass and resin to bring it all together! This one has minimal painting and is a great beginner project if you're just getting started with glass art!

First, start by painting your canvas front and sides with black paint. Let dry or dry with a heat gun.

I'm using Splendid Gold Metallic paint and applying it to my canvas with a palette knife. I want this to be very organic and natural looking, so I'm just lightly running my palette knife diagonally across my canvas. I'll do this several times until it looks the way that I like. Let dry or dry with a heat gun.

I have glass strips that I will be forming into the shape of a cross. These are fun iridescent glass pieces and I used a gold paint marker to draw on the edges of my glass. I'm going to take some tacky...

I'm using a 4x12 canvas to create an adorable Easter Bunny! I'm painting this one with a black background and long ears filled with pink seed beads. This one is simple, cute, and easy for your Easter and spring decor. Plus, you only need a handful of supplies to make this original art piece!

Grab your tracer, tape it to the canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and transfer your bunny with a stylus onto the canvas. 

Next, paint the edges and background of your canvas with black paint. Let dry or dry with a heat gun.

I'll paint my bunny with Anita's White and I'll use Bleached Sand for some shading and highlighting. I'll also use Poodleskirt Pink to lightly paint the ears, nose, and cheeks. I'll also paint her eyes with some black paint, and a tiny dot of white paint. 

Grab your graphic pen and we'll add some cute details, like eyelashes and whiskers. I'll also add some outlining around her face and ears. I have a DecoColor Metallic Gold...

I'm creating a beautiful Dogwood Cross on an 8x10 canvas with a pearl paint background. I'll be making my cross out of purple glass strips and then I'll be adding a Dogwood flower in the center with pieces from a glass vase. We'll finish it off with some seed beads, Starfire glass, bubbles, and resin!

First, I am going to paint my background with Metallic White paint. I am adding two coats of this, and drying it with a heat gun each time.

Then, I'm going to take my purple glass strips and form my cross. I'm going to lay them flat and stack them, gluing them to my canvas with tacky glue. I'll add some Starfire glass around my cross. Finally, I'm adding green seed beads to the center. 

Next, we will add resin. We're going to elevate our canvas using blocks. Mix 1 ounce of resin and stir gently for three minutes. Then, drizzle over your glass. Pour the remainder of the resin onto your canvas and spread it using your gloved fingers or brush.

Then, I'm taking...

I am using a 5x7 canvas to create a fun and festive bunny art piece with an Easter egg balloon. We'll be adding lots of fun embellishments like glass and some cute daisies that I grabbed from Hobby Lobby. This is an adorable art piece for the spring season and the Easter holiday!

Grab your tracer, tape it to the canvas, place transfer paper underneath, and transfer the outline of your bunny and balloon with a stylus onto the canvas. 

I am going to paint my background with Calypso Blue and white, just painting around the bunny and balloon. I'm going to paint my canvas edges too. Let dry or dry with a heat gun. 

I'm going to paint my Easter egg balloon with a base coat of white paint and then I'm going to add some Crocus Yellow. I'll also add a base coat of white paint to my bunny too. Then, I'll add some Hauser Green Light to the bottom of my canvas for grass. Let dry or dry with a heat gun.

Now we're going to add some color to our Easter egg. I'm using...

I am using a 5x7 canvas to create a pretty collection of three flowers. These are going to be very abstract roses - and it's the perfect art project to welcome the spring season! We'll be using several acrylic paint colors and then finishing off our piece with some seed beads and resin.

I'm going to start by sketching my roses onto my canvas with a watercolor pencil. If you have a tracer, you can tape it to your canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace it with a stylus. 

I'm going to paint around my sketched flowers with some Calypso blue paint. I'll also paint my leaves with some light green, yellow, and a bit of blue paint. 

Next, I'm going to paint my roses. I am using three different colors - Cinnamon Drop (red), Dragonfruit (pink), and Vintage Pink. I'm going to swirl the paint and fill in my rose messy and imperfect. I'm going to blend in some white paint as well some of the other colors - just layering the color in a swirling pattern. I'm also going...

We are using a 6x6 canvas today to create a St. Patrick's Day themed shamrock art piece. This one is super easy and festive for the upcoming holiday! All you'll need is a handful of paint colors and some Starfire glass. 

First, add a coat of white paint to your background. Let dry or dry with a heat gun. Then, I'm adding Grass Green and a little bit of Delta Straw (yellow) to my background. 

Grab your tracer, tape it to the canvas, place transfer paper underneath, and trace your shamrock with a stylus onto the canvas. 

Paint your shamrock with a Kelly Green color. I'll do one coat of Kelly Green and then I'm adding a coat of Metallic Emerald paint. Then, I'll add a little bit of Metallic White - just a few strokes of color to highlight. Let dry or dry with a heat gun.

I'll paint some white dots on my shamrock - I'll do two coats so we have more coverage. I'll also add a bit of yellow paint to them too. Then, use a dotting tool to make some...

I am using a 6x6 canvas to create a gold heart on a black canvas, complete with a gold key and some glass and resin. You can get a gold key at pretty much any craft store, or try to find a real one at your local antique store! This piece is very simple to pull together, especially if you are using a heart stencil, which I will be demonstrating today.

First, I am going to start by painting my canvas sides and front with black paint. I am just using Anita's Black, but you can use whatever you have. I will apply this with a sponge brush. Let dry or dry with a heat gun, and add a second coat of black paint.

Next, I'll take my heart stencil and tape it to my canvas. I'll use a stencil brush to apply my gold paint. Make sure your brush isn't loaded with paint (rub some off before applying) and just pounce your paint onto the canvas. Let dry or dry with a heat gun, and do a second coat of your gold paint.

Next, I'll take a graphic pen and outline my heart on the gold paint. I'll just do...

Today we will be creating a fun Mardi Gras themed art piece with some acrylic paint, glass, beads, and more! We'll be using the traditional Mardi Gras colors, painting a crown, and adding actual Mardi Gras beads to our canvas. This one is so fun to make and I loved the way it came out!

I am going to paint an ombre background with purple, white, and green paint. I am using a 1-inch flat brush and going to paint each third of the canvas, and blend them together. I'll also paint the sides of my canvas. Let dry. 

Grab your tracer, tape it to the canvas, place transfer paper underneath, and trace your crown with a stylus onto the canvas. I am going to put my crown at a slight angle. 

I'm using a 1/4 brush to paint my crown with Antique Gold. Let dry and add a second coat of gold. Then, I'll take a small palette knife and apply some purple to the back of it as well as some green and white paint. I'll also add a little bit of shadows and highlights...

I found some cute little wooden conversation hearts at Hobby Lobby for a dollar and I knew I had to make an art piece with them! My plan is to create a gumball machine, but instead of gumballs, it will be filled with these little hearts. We are working with an 8x10 canvas along with some acrylic paint, wooden hearts, and resin.

First, we are going to start by painting the background. I am using a mix of white paint and Cactus Flower, a light pink. 

Grab your tracer, tape it to the canvas, place transfer paper underneath, and trace your gumball machine with a stylus onto the canvas. 

First, I am going to paint the red parts of my machine. Then, I'm going to paint the silver parts of my machine with Metallic Tin. I'll also add some black to that area right where the coin goes.

I'll take my tracer and just add in some of those details lines on my machine. I'm going to continue to add some extra shadows and highlights with white and black paint. Let dry....

I picked up some amazing heart stencils that I am going to use today to make a monochromatic heart for Valentine's Day! I am using an 8x10 canvas and will be adding some heart stencils as well as a glass heart in the center. This one is great for beginners, quick, and easy!

First, I am going to start by painting my canvas white. Let dry. 

Then, I'm going to use Metallic White to apply some of my heart stencils throughout my background. I am using a stencil brush and you just want a small amount on your brush so that it stays within your stencil. You can either pounce or or swirl it on. Let dry. 

At this point, you could stencil or paint a large heart in the center of your canvas. I am just going to add my glass. I am using a large heart stencil to form my heart and then adding clear glass.

Next, we will add resin. We're going to elevate our canvas using blocks. Mix 2 ounces of resin and stir gently for three minutes. Then, drizzle over your glass. Pour the...
