Welcome back for another Hex Tex Tuesday.
I love abstract art so decided to create a simple wall panel using the hexagons in a Monochromatic style.
I cut a Panel measuring 8x8ins from a Tando Grey Board Sheet and gave it a coat of DecoArt Chalky Finish in Carbon to both sides of the panel. Once dry I gave both sides of the panel a coat of DecoArt Ultra Matte varnish to seal and protect the chalky finish.
For this project I used 7 of the hexagons .
I gave all the hexagons a coat of DecoArt Media Tinting base and dried with a heat tool.
Once dry I stamped all the hexagons with textures from Chocolate Baroque's Harlequin Fragments Rubber Stamp Set with Black Archival Ink.
I cut one of the hexagons as shown in the diagram below.
I drew a line from corner to corner left to right and then right to left.
As you will see you end up with a cross and have two diamond and two triangle shapes.
Cut along the cross lines with a ruler and a craft knife.
Next up arrange your hexagons onto the panel as shown.
To finish add a sentiment strip if desired.
I chose to go with a Monochromatic theme but this would look just as good using a riot of colour. The possibilities are endless.
A quick and easy project that would look great on any wall in your home or studio.
Thanks for taking the time to stop by and read
Fiona.
