Bottlecap triptych

[sweets4ever]

A few questions:

-did you do anything to prepare the bottlecaps before painting on them?
-what kind of paints did you use?
-did you use any kind of sealer afterward?

She used acrylic..   Not sure about the other two.

I sanded the bottlecaps just a tad so they'd be rough enough to take paint.

I used acrylic paint, and gave them a quick layer of acrylic medium.

Awesome artistry!  I'd love to have a set of these.

Ah, they're great! The frame is perfect for making you really want to get close to the paintings, it makes them seem very precious and important.

I love these. I love how you framed them in a huge frame

[indeliblechange]

ohhh i love the way you framed these in that big frame...really emphasizes how small they are

[dianimal]

Holy crap those are great   
After seeing these, I almost chickened out but I posted anyway...
I second (or third or fourth) the motion to produce more and sell em.

Thanks, everybody.

You all should try making wee paintings while you're still young and still have your eyesight.  I have no training in painting.  All it takes is some practice!

Well I had it down to three choices and was not sure how to decide - but since I really wish I could draw better faces I just had to go with your three fabulous faces.  Hope you do well in the voting
