The next stage in making this frame was to paint over the acrylic primer undercoat with two coats of lime white on the flat and inner section of the moulding. I then stippled on some watered down grey/pink paint all over the lime white painted section. The stippled paint on the inner moulded part of the frame was wiped down with a damp cloth; just leaving some paint in the recesses. I am just doing one paint colourwash on this frame but more can be used, along with splatters and speckles to add to the effect. The 3M tape was removed and next I will apply some wax and pigments.
