Spray Painting an Old Bike

When my favorite bike began to fall apart, I decided to add a touch of color and pattern to it.  Actually, I rainbowized it. Now the spray painted and stenciled bike sits outside my studio year round.

I’m rainbowizing an old bike with a touch of color and a few stencils…stencils from @stencilgirl_products . . . #artplay #acolorfuljourney #stencilgirl #stencil #stenciling #liquitex @liquitexofficial #spraypaint #liquitexspraypaint #upcycling #gardenart #rainbowized #bike #bicycle

As long as I had everything out, I had to dress up the garden statues too with some spray paint and the Stars Inspired by Matisse stencil.

She is one of my favorites simply because she only says yes…watch her head bobble in the video!

This had been a bit rusty before it was rainbowized…so fast and easy with spray paints (and nope didn’t prime a thing) The star pattern on her dress is courtesy of my Stars Inspired by Matisse stencil from @stencilgirl_products . . . . #artplay #acolorfuljourney #stencilgirl #stencil #stenciling #liquitex @liquitexofficial #spraypaint #liquitexspraypaint #upcycling #gardenart #rainbowized

What spray paint did I use for this play?  Liquitex spray paints  -love their colors and the water clean up!

Now you know how I keep the outdoors and my garden colorful even if I have a brown thumb when it comes to plants!
