I learned this hot glue technique for making stencils a year ago. However, one day as I was working in my home studio on some elements with gold leaf, the leafing accidentally stuck to my hot glue stencil and stuck quite too well. Then I got the idea of using my glue gun to make elements and then gold leaf them. I was very impressed as doing this made some very beautiful and interesting organic shapes. I started using these to build elemental focal points in my mixed media work with matte medium and sealing them with varnish.

Great for a bigger project that needs a repeating pattern. Especially a great grunge pattern that you envision. It would probably be easier to use if you apply it over a “frame”. You used a stencil which worked really well but even stiff cardboard might help anchor the glue and make it easier to move around.

@SandraDuranWilson 3 жыл бұрын

So true. When I am filming I am conscious of the time and try to keep my meandering to a minimum. I love the idea of the frame, which worked with the circle opening.

It might but the glue viscosity is different so you wouldn't get thin string like lines. Try it and see what happens.

@gloriagiefer3013 Жыл бұрын

When stenciling should the paint be mixed with a medium and how thick or thin or what should the consistency be of the paint?

@SandraDuranWilson Жыл бұрын

Great questions. If you are applying over a smooth surface you may use thin viscosity paint with a sponge. If you are applying over texture first apply a layer of gel gloss without paint and then apply a mixture of gel mixed with paint. The first layer of gloss gel will dry clear and your application will be crisp.

@SandraDuranWilson 2 жыл бұрын

Yes you have to keep pumping the glue gun. I am using acrylic paint, no medium. The key is to use the cosmetic sponge and tap it first to really load the paint. Let me know how you do.

Long term I don't think the glue will last well and this may just be an inexpensive short term technique. With that said, try storing them flat between parchment or freezer paper. This may prolong them somewhat.
