The Oversize Bamboo and Moon Stencil is a striking oversize motif for creating decorative panels, centre piece wall features, screens or pictures. Bamboo is a popular design choice amongst artists and designers because its elegant formation has instant appeal in a wide variety of settings. The Oversize Bamboo & Moon stencil has a modern up to the minute oriental style.  This design is unique to this website.

Graduated Painted Background Technique
Graduated painted backgrounds can be achieved by using two similar tones of emulsion paint (latex) and a tinted varnish glaze over the top. This technique will not work with radically different colours - keep the tones similar so mixing is easier. Mix a third of each colour together to create a mid-tone colour and paint the wall in either three horizontal bands or in three bands on a slight diagonal. The bands should go from dark to light, brushing the colours lightly over each other where the different colours meet to create as softer join as possible. Keep strokes long, smooth and even. Mix a varnish glaze using 2/3rd Acrylic Matt Varnish, 1/3rd Acrylic Scumble Glaze. Add a little water if the glaze is much thicker than the consistency of double cream. Tint the glaze with several drops of Universal Tinter to create a transparent glaze a couple of shades deeper than the middle tone of your painted wall. Brush the glaze over the wall and soften in long smooth strokes using a Hog Hair Softener. Repeated layers of the tinted varnish glaze will serve to blend and soften the joins of the different colours.

Two-tone stencilling
Using two colours stencil the cut out shapes of the stencil with one colour and then over-stencil a part of each cut out shape with the second colour, blending as you go. This creates depth and a more 3-dimensional feel.
