Original Creation

Lighthouse

LinzeePaints 31 Aug 2021

This is the biggest painting I have ever done 20" x 24". I love it so much. Question to all you who paint on stretched canvas (I usually only paint on canvas board): what do you do with the edges? Do you continue the colours from the painting on the edges? Or do you paint them out a solid colour? I decided to paint my edges black.

I've done it both ways. I started out wrapping the painting around the edges but sometimes forgot to do it so had to paint the edges. If I paint the edges it depends on the painting. I choose a colour from the painting itself. If I can't decide I do it grey which is a good neutral colour. That is one massive lighthouse!

You did a good job on the lighthouse.
