How to Airbrush Art on Black Paint
- 1). Decide what designs you want to airbrush on the canvas and procure stencils that will help you create these designs. If you want multiple shapes, be sure to get a stencil for each. Visualize how you want the end result to look. Your stencils will simply be used to get the main shape onto the canvas. You will eventually go back with the airbrush and edit images as necessary.
- 2). Select airbrush paint colors that will show up on your black canvas. Neon colors and bright yellows and blues will stand out especially well. If you want to use darker colors you can use a white airbrush paint to prime the area and follow with the color of your choice.
- 3). Use a pencil to lightly sketch where the stencil designs will be airbrushed on. These are just guides for the stencil.
- 4). Place the stencil on the canvas according to the pencil marks. Shake the aerosol can containing the airbrush paint and lightly spray within the stencil. Keep spraying the paint till there is a thick coat on the canvas.
- 5). Wait for the paint to dry and repeat Step 4 as necessary throughout the canvas.
- 6). Use the airbrush paints to touch up any blank spots or alter the stenciled designs as you see fit.
