I take most of my photos on our sun porch. It has pale yellow bead-board paneled, brick painted walls and with windows on three sides. The light is great, but I often have trouble getting a nice clean backdrop because of the windows or the painted brick. I decided to paint some backdrops to give my photos a more professional look.
I painted my large canvas a pale powder blue - this blue has always been my signature color.
I purchased all of the paint colors I need to mix custom colors whenever I need them. I'm able to paint my large canvas or smaller foam boards any color that I need at a moments notice.
I'm storing them in this little box in my workshop/utility room to keep them handy.
My blue board at work! I love it. I can't wait to try other colors on my foam boards.
Looks great..good tip! Do you hang the board like a painting on the bricks, or do you just lean it against the wall?
ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea! I recently created a "table-top" type backdrop (my kitchen counters are dark granite, and I wanted a white washed look), but I hadn't thought about a canvas backdrop - I also take pictures on my porch, but it's got the siding which I don't like to have in my pictures, so this is the *perfect* solution. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
