Painting is sometimes a form of illusion. You can make something look like something it is not.
If you have been thinking about renovating your home because you’re tired of the old way it looks like. You don’t have the thousands of dollars to actually modify and renovate your home. Then the next best thing is to consider at paint renovation instead.
Inspiration painting happens when you see something like for example, a carpet with barcode stripes on it hung on the wall like a painting. This can be very easily painted on with the series of horizontal stripes to mimic the pattern in the carpet.
Stand back and decide the size of the graphic on the wall you choose.
Layout the outside dimensions that you feel most comfortable with considering the positioning and placement of other furniture front of it.
If you decide to lay out your stripes horizontally (this will make the room look wider) you can mark out your stripes. I suggest you market your stripes out in uneven thickness to give it a more natural and random look.
If you decide you like to have your stripes going vertically this will give the room illusion of being taller. And the room to feel a little smaller and tighter.
Color choices for this wall graphic will change with the mood of the room. If you’re looking to have a soft and smooth and soothing mood in the room you might consider using a mixture of beige colors with greenish and brownish hues in them. That accent stripes with variations from lighter to darker stripes in different thicknesses.Any use and occasional complimentary color in the mix. For example if you’re going with earth tone colors you might consider using a bluish mixture with your base color. This can cause an interesting effect and yet not shout out the wrong way.
There is the right amount of lines or stripes that will look natural and not too busy. Don’t forget every time you add a stripe to your graphic it’s also in turn creating two more stripes. So one stripe actually creates three stripes.
To do this kind of small inspiration painting you only need a few quarts of latex paint and a few rolls of painters masking tape to tape off your stripes and a tape measure and a level.
