No doubt they require some sorcery as well. After my latest stencil fiasco, I am cautiously ambivalent about the wall decals. The nice ones cost about 50 bucks and the only skill involved is peeling the designs off the backing and sticking them to the wall. Honestly, this pretense that I have even one artistic speck in my body has to stop. I try to spot the editing - surely there’s a rough cut in there somewhere that represents a three-hour time lapse where the artist is doing magic things off-screen to make the stencil come out properly. You know those DIY videos? Those cheery little four-minute Facebook episodes of someone turning a basement bargain dresser into a beautifully stenciled masterpiece? Oh, I still watch those but I’m squinting bitterly and making disparaging sounds in my throat.
#PAINT AND SIP STENCILS MANUAL#
That doesn’t work either, but the wine makes it less painful in the short term. A paint calculator is used to ease the manual process that is required to measure paint and the amount of painting cost per square.
I’ve also tried to slow down the process by taking out a big piece of practice paper, pouring a glass of wine, choosing a round foam-tipped brush, taking a sip, dipping the brush in the paint and gently dabbing the excess paint off on a paper towel, sipping, and then carefully blotting the paint on top of the stencil.

When that doesn’t work out - shocker! - I think I can improve the outcome by going FASTER, hurrying down a path of stepping stones in quick succession with an increasingly mangled stencil tool and the glue-like remains of paint in the bottom of the can. In reality, I throw the stencil down on top of a dusty paver and hit it with the dregs of a mostly used can of spray paint. You see, I’m not the overly arrogant type of I’ve-got-this artist.
#PAINT AND SIP STENCILS PROFESSIONAL#
Yes, that’s my professional stencil skill level.Įven more so because I “practiced” stencils.
I’ll just add a little more paint over here, I think, and then just straighten up this geometry a teensy bit, a little dot over here … Pretty soon my mandala looks like it took a hit of LSD on its way to a Dumpster fire. The canvas and easel are for display purposes only. There’s a separate section of hell for stencilers like me, though, the ones who think they can “fix” the ruined stencil attempt.
