FLORAL BUNCH_A NIB PAINTING...



I always love to do NIB PAINTINGS...

I chose a simple embroidery design of flowers and planned to do a NIB PAINTING...

First,I traced the design on a black felt cloth and applied oil colors with the help

of specially crafted nibs(available in craft stores) and carefully fashioned the flovers and

leaves with these nibs...

I know it is a messy job-as this paint lakes a long time to dry

and there is every chance of smudging and messing up the work...

But...when it is over-it is worth the effort and the time spent on it...

And  a good NIB PAINTING looks like an embroidery work..

.and pastel shades enhance the beauty of the piece...
