Carrie asked for two 18" x 18" canvases for her children's bathroom. Her daughter's favorite animal is a giraffe, and her son's is a cheetah. She loaned me a bath towel and gave me pictures of her bathroom so that I could match the colors. Her towel and shower curtain were both striped, so I used the colors and the pattern for the background.
I learned a lot about acrylic on this project. I discovered Frogger tape, a type of painter's tape that truly does not bleed, and I also learned that yes, it is possible to remove acrylic with sandpaper or a rough sponge, but only the first few layers. That's the first time I've ever ripped a canvas, but it worked out, because as soon as I had a clean canvas, the giraffe was a cinch.
So cute! I want a giraffe like that in my bedroom!
