Stencilling


Stencilling, a different way



It is the background that makes the difference

The idea is to make them look as if they were "stolen" from a fresco.



Again, it is the background, here marbelized, that makes the difference



Beautiful Stencils are created by using creamy pigments


Blend your pigments with stencil brushes on a glass palette. Use lots of colors but little pigment.
Experiment with stenciling using "rub-on-gold" or finger gold. Looks sensational on red Venetian Plaster.
