Faux painting adds grace and sophistication to any room. Color washes create a softly patterned handmade effect that cannot be matched by any wallpaper patterns.
Step 5: Apply the second glaze. With the first glaze freshly applied, take a four-inch, latex paintbrush and dip it into the second glaze color. Wipe off the excess paint on a clean cotton rag then randomly spread the second color glaze over the wet first color glaze. Here’s where the artist in you takes over. Apply the second process color and feather it over the first process glaze in a way that pleases you, applying as much or as little second color as you wish. The trick is to keep your strokes random so the effect looks abstract. Each time you add more second color glaze to the brush, wipe off the excess with a rag to keep from over-applying the effect. From time to time, step back and look at your work. If there is an area that is too light, simply feather in more color until the effect is even.
Use a latex brush to add the second glaze.
