Things I have painted on.  email this discussion to a friend?

I thought it would be funny to list all the things I have painted on in my life. I used to joke that if something stood still long enough, I'd paint it.
Faces, body parts, rocks, windows, canvas, paper, gourds, houses, glass, pottery, metal, clay pots, plastic, fabric, t-shirts, shop aprons, hats, bread dough art, beads, and leather.
I'm sure I'll think of something else later, but that's all for now. How about you?

I too will grab just about anything to paint on it..ceramics, wood, well you know it all. I think my favorite thing to paint on is wood... also, when i've had a front door with the little window in it, i will usually paint it to look like stained glass... it's really pretty with the sun coming through it and gives me privacy.

I've painted doors, walls, houses and they are some of y faves. Actually, I've considered a house to be the most expressive work I've done. Even if you stick with classic colors, or a traditional look, it's still pretty cool to go by a house you used to live in and be able to say "I did that". Especially if the new people who live there haven't repainted, lol.
Okay, now that that is written down, it looks weird. But, yeah I actually have been most proud of a house painting. We're doing a paint job on this house soon, and I'm getting ideas here:

Good question!

I haven't painted since art class.
I'm not adept that way. I have a daughter who likes to draw.

That is a didgeridoo made out of a plastic PVC pipe.
It is first painted with gesso tinted with light brown acrylic paint(the plastic was originally black). Then the skeleton was painted with black acrylic paint.

I love to paint. But, only have done it on paper, wood and stones. I am an artist. Look at my website: www.mgcreativearts.com
I also am a rare scissor cutting artist of silhouettes.


myLot reputation of 97/100. auburndreams (554)   ranked 12 out of 186 in painting   6 years ago

I spent over an hour last night looking for my papercuttings to show you. Maybe I never took photos of them. I guess I'll have to make some new ones. Do you frame yours under glass? I'm assuming you don't glue them to the background paper, and if not, what keeps them from sliding around?


myLot reputation of 90/100. margieanneart (16724)  6 years ago

I do glue them down. And, for the galleries, they are framed. But, I sell them unmatted, matted, or matted and framed.
I would love to see your cuttings. Can you email me them to look at? Do you have a website?

auburndreams, you should marry me in some future life and we can paint the whole town and then eachother.

That's great. Painting a toilet in glow-in-the-dark-paint might make it easier to find.

Me too! I gave my best friend a set of hand painted dinner plates for her birthday one year. They were for display only, of course.

I like to draw,paint, and make crafts. I love your little skeleton it is so cute I like that idea alot. My niece is wanting me to draw and paint to dragons intertwined together with their tails ending in a heart on her wall. And my mom is wanting me to help he with a mural on her living room wall and to help her paint Dora the explorer and boots on my 5 yearold sisters room. My husband won't let me have free reign in our house so I think it will be fun to do this and give me something to do to keep me busy for a while. My mom can draw very good and paint she took art classes to help her enhance her talent and she has taught me so I can be a better drawer and painter and I love making things. Well good luck and keep on painting because I am sure it brings joy to alot of people when they see your things you have painted and stuff you have made and done.


myLot reputation of 97/100. auburndreams (554)   ranked 12 out of 186 in painting   6 years ago

That dragon idea sounds great. And a lot of fun. I wish someone would give me free reign in a house. I hate renting.

I can't paint so good in art. I can write nice (letters). But when its up to art and painting I am not so good.
