This post comes to us From Charley Roth and shows you how she customized a skate deck with Stencil1 stencils. Make your skateboard a unique, one-of-a-kind work of art with stencils. Here’s what you need:
Featured Materials:
• Brick Stencil
• Heart Dripping Stencil
• Drip Marks Stencil
• Tattoo Cherries Stencil
• Stencil brushes
• Flat brush,
• Acrylic or multi-surface paint
• Optional: low tack spray adhesive and tape
First, I painted a base coat of white.
Then, I placed the brick stencil and got a tiny bit of paint on my brush and dabbed the brush over the stencil.
I repeated this step until the whole board was covered with the brick repeat pattern.
After that, I grabbed the stencils I wanted to put on top of the brick and did the same thing.
I tried a few different techniques and I found it the easiest if you did the stencil in white first and then in the color you want due to the background being dark.
I repeated this with the spray paint drips stencil as well.
Then I decided to add a few more stencils and a couple of finishing touches!
