Since I'm working after 9pm, i can't run down to the copy store. I will use my scanner and Photoshop CC to get my childhood art into my computer. Believe me, its much easier to just blow up the painting on a copy machine! My artwork is longer than my scanner bed, so I scanned it in two sections.
Next post will be the fabrics chosen for this piece inspired by a child's artwork. Thank you for stopping by!
While going through old photos and things in my parents house, I came across a Halloween watercolor and crayon painting I created when I was small. The second I saw it I was inspired to make a table runner for the spooky season. The child's painted art piece measures 7" x 17.75". I will use these numbers to figure out a larger size for my fabric. I want the finished piece, with a binding, to measure 40" long. Time to do math. You probably figure sizes out differently than I do. This works best for my way of thinking.
Figuring out the finished size:

AuthorHello and welcome to SYNAPOP! I am a mixed media artist and maker. That means I use whatever is needed to create my art. My focus is determined by what is going on in life...so one day it will be glass shards sculpted with wire, weaving with shoelaces and silk scraps, or manipulating digital photographs. I love being creative and talking about it! It was so very nice to meet you, please visit here again. Archives
