The trend in home decor for grey tones continues, ideal to create a natural stone effect and the DecoArt Tie Dye Stencil was a perfect starting point.
Items Needed:
- DecoArt Media Mediums and Specialty Products - Modeling Paste - White (DMM21-71)

Instructions:
Apply a coat of Media White Gesso to a 12'' x 12'' Canvas Board
Apply Media modelling paste through stencil
Texturize it with the palette knife
Apply Media Crackle Paste with palette knife between modelling paste randomly
Apply Media Fluid Acrylic Medium Grey working out from centre
Followed with Media Fluid Acrylic Dark Grey blending with the Medium Grey outwards
Followed with Media Fluid Acrylic Burnt Umber blending with the Dark Grey towards the edges of the canvas
Finally, with Media Fluid Acrylic Carbon Black to small areas around the edge
Whilst the paint is wet start to wipe back with a baby wipe to expose the textures
Focusing on the centre working outwards
Stencil Media Fluid Acrylic Titanium White in centre blending out to enhance the centre focal point
