Brown Waterfall

Coldethel 28 Feb 2023

Tried using contact paper but it didn’t seal good. I need to fix the edges somehow.

Nice, good luck correcting the outer edge......you will need a steady hand

This looks great Coldethel! You nailed the colors scheme.
Little trick for the contact paper… If you don’t prime your canvas with gesso first, the contact paper won’t stick well at all.

Small addition to Nancy's comment: If your outer area is gonna be white anyway you could also "seal" the inner edges of your contact paper cutout with white acrylic paint once it sticks. The acrylic will bleed through but since the background is white anyway that wont matter. Same goes for any other background color of course
