Painting Projects – Terra Cotta

posted by Linda @ 1:56 PM
Monday, March 1, 2010

In trying to suggest a variety of   painting projects, I’ve looked around my own home to see what surfaces I have painted on in the past.    I ran across some small terra cotta (clay) figures that I once painted.   These little guys were and are very inexpensive to purchase,  and no special talent is needed to paint them.   Just follow the shape of the details,  such as the face and hands,  the hat, the coat,  the shoes,  the hair,   and all the other little incidentals.

You can paint these little characters with just your basic colors:  blue, red, green, yellow, while, beige.   In fact,  you actually can start with the three primary colors   (red, yellow, and blue)  plus white and mix them together for any color you want.
