Commission - Hokitika Gorge with Washes Outdoor Dining Set - Not For Sale
This stunning commission has been painted in a base of Hokitika Gorge with washes of Deep Sapphire and Tropical Lagoon to give plenty of movement.
Our customer wanted their sweet outdoor dining set to be revamped with premium chalk paint to reflect their stunning views of the Waitemata Harbour and love of Santorini in Greece.
Painted in premium chalk paint, there was no need to prep or sand, we then finished with two coats of premium lacquer for a durable finish.
Technique:
Painted in Hokitika Gorge using our angled detail and 1 inch flat brushes. We painted two coats for full coverage.
The first wash was done with Deep Sapphire, brushed on with the same brushes in small sections and ragged off with a clean lint-free rag. We decanted our chalk paint and watered it down by 50%, making sure to stir it frequently.
The second wash was completed in the same way but this time in Tropical Lagoon.
Once fully dry, we sealed in Matte lacquer using the same brushes. We applied two coats to make sure we got full coverage.
