This artwork would have to be one of the quickest and easiest projects I’ve ever done - no painting or any particular skill required! It looks so modern and funky up on the wall.
I was trying to come up with ideas for cheap, original and easy to make
Christmas presents the other day while I was in K-Mart… I saw the packing tape
for $5 and then had the idea to make some artwork with it.
This project is so
simple that children could make it as their present to give away too.
I purchased a medium-sized canvas from a bargain shop for about $15.
This design would also work really well on a large canvas. I left the canvas as it is (white).
Then I got
out my packing tape and started wrapping it around the canvas. Don’t worry
about doing any sort of design, just wrap it around randomly and do lots of
layers. I started with red, then yellow, then green, then blue, then black (as
the first layer). Then I completed the picture by using the green, yellow and
red again for the top layers, in order to give it a ‘lighter’ look.
Once I’d finished I cut a hole in the back with scissors so that I
could hang it up!
So easy! Someone would love getting this for Christmas I’m sure.
Happy making!
Emma
