PAINTING ORIGINAL ARTWORK on canvas is one of today's most popular and creative ways to enjoy our leisure time and to improve our artistic skills. No other painting technique puts such a unique and personal stamp on our surroundings, or brings such joy and satisfaction to both the artist and the viewer.
In the past, painting landscapes or floral still-fifes on canvas meant spending many hours in preparation, copying a pattern or drawing, assembling just the right brushes and paints, buying special equipment, painting with slow, deliberate strokes, repainting mistakes and starting over again....
No more! In this book you will discover a new and innovative way to paint quickly and easily using acrylic paints and common household sponges. No brushes needed! No experience required!
Painting with sponges is downright fun-and it frees you from the fear and frustration of making mistakes. Don't like what you've just painted? Spray the area with water and remove it with a clean sponge. It's that easy.
The sponges used to paint the projects in this book are the inexpensive cellulose ones you can find in any grocery, hardware or home improvement store. A natural sea sponge is also used to achieve some interesting effects, such as layers of colorful foliage on trees and bushes.
