Chevron Canvas Wall Art


This is my first attempt at Chevron art.  I like it.  I have been seeing these on a lot of blogs.  So I decided to try to make one for my wall :)  This took a lot of patience and lots of measuring!  
I measured and taped with painters tape.  Then, I painted the canvas with acrylic paint 2613 Carribean.  I painted two coats and let it dry.  Then, I removed the tape and had a pretty Chevron canvas :)    

I have since found this pattern that I will be trying out the next time I make Chevron art.  http://www.sunset.com/home/weekend-projects/chevron-pattern-how-to-00400000043459/  I imagine it has to be loads easier with a traceable template!  

Thanks for looking, have a great day!
