I started by taping off the center of the canvas from left to right, and from top to bottom. This canvas is similar in style to the one above, but much easier to measure out and tape! When using painters tape, make sure that it is adhered well, and paint along the edges towards the center of your colour blocks to seal the tape before painting in the middle. The final step is to paint inside your spaces after it’s all taped off. Watch the video above to see us measuring out and placing the grid and tape pieces. You can use the same design as us, or make your own! Just follow the spacing to determine how large or small your pieces will be. Once we had the grid, we were able to put our design in place using tape. The spaces were essentially divided into 9 rows (as seen above), and 7 columns (seen below), with spaces in between them. Our grid was marks every 1.5″, which was the same thickness as our tape, and would allow to evenly space out the painted sections and empty spaces. Then we measured a grid all the way along the sides and tops of our border tape. We started by taping an outside border of 3″ on the sides, and 4.5″ from the top and bottom. If you’re going to use the same size canvas as us, then the good news is that we did all the hard measurements for you! This one is super easy to paint, but a little harder to measure out. My husband refers to this one as the “tetris” one because he thinks it looks like Tetris pieces. I’m gonna chat briefly about the geometric canvas first.
