Coffee Pot #2 painted on jute


Here is another coffee pot painted using acrylics on burlap. I am enjoying this challenge.

This one measures 21 x 19. I mounted it on a board painted gloss black.



Hard to see in the photo, but the black board shows a bit through the many tiny holes which were left in the coarse jute "canvas" even after two coats of gesso and my typical vigorous application of paint.




Next step is to coat it with a high-gloss varnish. I'll likely use epoxy resin again - the very shiny finish on the rough surface pleases me. I have learned to take the photo first, before making it glossy :-)
