DIY Ombre Art

 I have always struggled in the art department.

Perspectives and renderings were challenging for me in design school.

Remember how I wanted a large piece of art for above my new desk?

I couldn't swallow the price of the art I loved and I wanted something Ombre.

So, I decided to paint one...

I bought a 3'-0" x 4'-0"canvas from Micheals for $24.00.

 it was originally $40.00 but I used a 40% off coupon that I printed from here.

I then painted the whole canvas with gesso.

Once the gesso was dry I got started.

I took a picture of each step so you could see how the it came to be.

It was really easy and only took an hour.

I absolutely love the blue and pink together.

I am no artist but I think it turned out okay for an amatuer.

And it only cost $45.00.

I can't complain about that!
