    how to do nib painting

    What You need.

    Design
    Black Felt
    Hard board
    Oil paint
    Tracing Paper
    Pencil
    Carbon
    Glue

    Nibs- 3 types of nibs are available.

    Rounded tip to do circle designs
    Long tip to do lines
    Short pointed tip to draw small sharp lines.


    Using glue stick the felt on the hard board. Trace down the design on the felt. Now you are ready to paint the design. Two things should be always taken care while doing nib painting. One, you should always start painting from top so as to move your hand freely towards down part. Secondly, you should move your hand evenly while doing your painting. This gives the painting a real look.

    Decide on the shade scheme of your design.Put the paint straight onto the felt. Press on it or score on the paint using the nib. Wherever a round design is required use the nib with round tip and wherever the small sharp lines are drawn short pointed tip nip is used. Generally long tip nib is used to do the lines. You can also take the paint on the nib and press it against the surface to create the design. You may take 2-3 days to finish off with a design. But do it patiently. You will enjoy this. The design will dry off very slowly, say by 7- days or more. The consistency of the paint is very thick. After the design is fully dried, get it framed.
