DIY fabric paintings
All quality canvases are made on a fabric basis. However modern interpretation such paintings change our view of art.
Modular fabric paintings have gained great popularity. But it's not that hard to make them yourself. In stores now you can find a lot of fabrics with a very beautiful, interesting and bright print.
If you liked any of them, then you can safely buy it and make an author's decor item.
Modular picture
To create such a room decoration as a modular fabric picture, you will need a base in addition to the selected material. It can even be a door from an old cabinet or a piece of chipboard, which could well be lying around somewhere in the garage after repair.
Cut out a few pieces from the base to the size of your fabric and fit the tree with it. Make sure that the fabric is well stretched and does not form wrinkles. Your painting is almost ready. It remains only to attach the hooks for which it will be attached to the wall.
Most often, such paintings consist of three or more modules, which can be either the same size or different. Their shape can also be different.
The most common and easiest to manufacture are square and rectangular elements. But there are round, oval and other forms of modules for paintings. Frames for picture modules in this case are not needed.

Paintings made of artificial flowers
The easiest to make are pictures of artificial flowers or other decorative elements. The main thing here is to beautifully glue the finished parts to the base.
For this technique, you will need a frame, solid material and the actual image itself. Cover a sheet of paper with a cloth, wrapping its edges and gluing with reverse side.
Then, after removing the glass from the frame, insert the base of your picture into it and glue artificial flowers or other details (shells, dry twigs, etc.) to it. At the end, you can decorate the frame with beads.

A three-dimensional picture can be called a 3d sculpture in a frame, made from improvised materials. It can be anything in the full sense of the word: paper, dry flowers, polymer clay, leather, fabrics and other creative materials. From gypsum, for example, they perform magnificent three-dimensional drawings right on the kitchen wall.

Everyone can make an original masterpiece of art with their own hands. Why don't you try your hand? The master class will help you learn the basic principles to start from the idea and start creating.
Master class "3d paper picture"
For the first pen test, take the simplest version of a three-dimensional picture - paper application.
A set of materials for work:
- frame with deep sides;
- stationery knife;
- pencil;
- colored cardboard with a bright print;
- white watercolor paper or thin cardboard;
- ruler, scissors;
- PVA glue.
Instead of a frame, you can take a candy box.
Step-by-step description of a three-dimensional paper picture:
- cut out a rectangle white sheet paper under the selected frame;
- hand draw or print a heart large enough to fit freely in the frame 9 times in three rows. The approximate size of a heart is 4x5 cm;
- the heart needs to be cut out and circled with a simple pencil, putting on white paper prepared earlier. You should get 3 rows of three hearts or more (less) as you wish;
- now it has come responsible step- carefully using a clerical knife, cut out the "wings" of the hearts. To do this, you need to make cuts along the contour of the hearts, without touching the lower and upper parts;
- we bend the cut parts of the hearts up and to the center, making them voluminous;
- The blank with hearts must be glued onto colored cardboard. It is desirable that it be a special scrap paper with a small pattern. It will be visible through the bent wings of the hearts;
- the final step is to place the picture in a frame and fix it on the reverse side with a stapler or glue.
The presented master class is simple, but based on it, you can make your own 3d plot - fluttering butterflies, tiles, people and other interesting patterns.
Master class "multilayer 3d paper painting"
It is very easy to make an interesting paper picture using the layered technique - you need to find a drawing and print many copies. The finished product, hung on the wall, looks interesting from different angles view - a real 3d picture.
A set of materials for work:
- deep enough frame;
- cardboard;
- laminate substrate;
- thick album sheets and printer;
- glue for needlework;
- acrylic paint;
- acrylic lacquer;
- scissors;
Step by step description layered picture from paper:
- choose beautiful and bright picture with clear image. It is desirable that it has a lot of details that will be convenient to cut. We format or select the image to fit the frame size. We print 10-12 copies on thick paper;
- Depending on what printer you have, we determine the need for pictures to be varnished. So, images printed on an inkjet printer need to be sprinkled and varnished, otherwise the colors will flow. Laser images can be left like this;
- the first image is simply glued onto cardboard cut to the size of the frame plus mounting gaps;
- all other images are cut out, but in a special way. For example, if you are creating a flower, then let several whole flowers with a stem and leaves be cut out, a couple of layers more leaves, and even more inflorescence itself. It sounds complicated, but it will become clear along the way;
- now we are preparing the basis for the parts from a thin substrate for the laminate, which looks like a thin layer of polyethylene foam. The cut-out backing should be slightly smaller than the details so that it is not visible in finished product on the wall;
- we glue the parts on the substrate, but not all, but selectively - only those layers that should protrude forward. In some small details substrate may not be needed;
- the prepared parts are placed on the base in a frame for glue. First we place big pictures with many details, and then individual details, which should be more voluminous;
- the side parts should not remain white, otherwise they will give out the presence of a substrate - they need to be painted over to match the image;
- We cover the picture with acrylic varnish in several layers. Each layer is applied after the previous one has dried;
Now you will also have a three-dimensional picture with your own hands - now you can place it on the wall in this form or add glass. Such canvases can be made from fabric, then you will get a picture with a beautiful terry surface. 
Master class "3d leather painting"
A set of materials for work:
- frame;
- the basis of the picture is made of leather, suede or fabric;
- pieces of leather of any color;
- acrylic paints;
- rectangular sheet of chipboard or plywood;
- furniture stapler;
- craft glue or superglue;
- scissors;
- paper (for sketches);
- soap or chalk (for contours on the skin).
The first question that arises about the creation of such a work is where to get the skin? Firstly, it must be natural, and therefore it is not cheap. But you will certainly have a jacket, bag, gloves and other used genuine leather products. Feel free to shred them - you will get a lot of fun and be able to make a gorgeous picture.
Step-by-step description of creating a painting "bouquet of leather":
- on paper, make sketches of leaves and petals and cut them out - these will be templates for work;
- transfer the contours to the skin and cut out how many flowers with petals you want to have in the finished picture;
- if the materials at hand did not contain colored skin of a shade suitable for the colors, then use acrylic paints. Color the petals with burgundy or pink flowers, leaves are green. You can choose paints of any colors you like;
- to make the petals rounded and voluminous, you need to hold the skin over the candle flame - it will take on an interesting natural shape;
- we collect buds from the petals, in the center you can place a ball of leather or fabric as the center of the flower;
- we stretch the base of any fabric, suede, leather or other material onto a sheet of plywood and fasten it with staples from the wrong side. The fabric can be pulled tight or draped. The resulting base is inserted into the frame;
- lay out ready-made flowers and leaves on the basis - evaluate their location by stepping aside;
- complement the composition with leather curls, natural materials- shells, dry flowers, etc.;
- now you can glue all the elements to the intended places using a glue gun or a tube of superglue.
We clean the finished picture from traces of needlework and hang it on the wall - that's the whole master class. Similar creations can be made from fabric - decorating the painted silhouettes of girls with dresses made of fabric and lace.
To repeat the master class and create three-dimensional paintings With your own hands, you do not need to have the ability to draw. But what you really need is perseverance and accuracy.
