If you’re like me, you’ve probably wondered how those lovely canvases get painted.

If you’re also like me, you may even have tried painting your own a time or two. And then left the room screaming at how bad the results were.

Bu Tingaling does paint canvases and has posted a great article on her blog, that shows you step-by-step wht goes into painting a needlepoint canvas.

The design is one she did for a friend to stitch and it’s adorable. It’s also fairly simple as these things go. But the process to paint the canvas well is not simple at all.

You’ll come away with new respect for needlepoint designers and canvas painters.
