Tile in the bathroom, toilet or in the kitchen is a reliable and durable solution of the interior decor, especially if you have a blue interior. Beautiful painted tile pleases the eye and often looks luxurious if the drawing is made with the knowledge of the case. It is a pity that this beauty costs a lot of money.
But few people know that on the tile you can perform whole pictures, and it will no longer have consumer goods. Such a landscape or still life can decorate the room and even be a rarity made with your own hands.
For painting, it does not need brushes, the drawing is applied with your fingers. This method came up with a Mexican artist. His creations are exported from the country, and the method spread far beyond Mexico.
What is needed to perform a drawing on the tile
Required tools and materials:- Smooth ceramic tile standard size, preferably white or very light shade. Maybe glossy or matte, but without any patterns.
- Oil or acrylic paints.
- Unnecessary rags, towel.
- Clean napkins, preferably cotton (wipe hands).
- Thin wand with a pointed end. You can do without it, if used instead of the tool with a reflected nail.
- The solid cardboard size of 30 to 40 - 50 cm or the same wooden plank for paints.
Well, and your own fantasy or some drawing before the eyes you are going to draw.
Sequence of work
Paints put next to you (on a cardboard or skid), knees to put a towel, on it a pure prepared tile.
Take on the fingers a little blue paint and smear it at the top of the tile, then wipe the hands and put the greenery paint on the sides, lower - also a green, but more dark shade. It will be the sky and forest.
To highlight the moon, in the center of the blue sky - a little rubbed a clean napkin, you can apply white paint. Then everyone will be lost his hands.
Below the forest is the paint of dark blue to the end of the tile. Draw the sea. Sea lambs are performed in the form of curls of white, and again rubbing everything.
In the middle of our sea we make a white moonwalk with smears from side to the side with clean fingers.
Then you can make trees brown paint. But here you will need to skillfully perform them with the help of nails or sticks.
I turn over the tile so that the sky is closer than the sea, and the green paint "draw" to the foliage. Put your fingers into green paint and make slaps. Everything, trees are ready. And the tile again needs to deploy.
If desired, during the skill, we write a brown paint boat or a sailboat, rowers in it. Small details perform pointed nails or wand.
Picture ready! Last bar remained - to make the likeness of the frame at the edges. To do this, hold a towel along the very edge of the tile, removing the paint a few millimeters from the edge.
The masterpiece is made. There is no such drawing for anyone, and he will not meet in the store.
