Happy Fish Art Cafe Painting Project
Paint your own laughing fish! All of our Art Cafe fish projects are carved by fish artist, Shelly Drews, right here in Traverse City, Michigan. This wire and bottle cap fish eye can be removed with a screw driver before painting.
If you plan to paint here in person - we will supply paint and brushes for you to complete this project.
Recommended Paint:
Acrylic paint works best for our wood Art Café Projects.
We love Folk Art Multi Surface Paints as well as Apple Barrel Multi Surface Paints
Tips:
Start with a neutral base coat on your project first. The wood absorbs a lot of paint, so laying down one solid layer helps the other colors glide on more smoothly and look more vibrant.
If you really wanna go all the way, give your project a light sanding after your base coat dries. Focus on the edges and sand off any rough bits of wood left by the band saw.
We love to see your finished projects! Send us pictures of your creation here: laughingfishmi@gmail.com
