A Word From Donna Dewberry— Paint Unique Frames For Your Grandchildren’s Photos! There is nothing like a treasured grandchild to make you want to take lots of photographs. And then you want to frame them. My grandson. Christian, was the inspiration for designing this photo frame grouping. / think his little face looks so precious wreathed in a garland of flowers or peeking out from behind a birdhouse. These frames are easy to cut from pine and fun to paint. My grandson. Christian, was bom on my birthday. It is so exciting to be a grandmother, even more fun than / could ever haw imagined. My husband says if / pull out those baby pictures just one more time, he's going to take them away. / never fully understood the excitement about grandchildren until / had one of my own. He just seems to light up the room when he comes in. His little smile, his giggle just makes me stop whatever I'm doing and sit with him. if only for a few minutes. / guess this is one of those hidden blessings ire enjoy from haring our own children. I love and enjoy all of my children, but a grand- child seems to have a special place in my heart. / am the mother of seven, so that means that the possibilities of more grandchildren are great. I will have even more pictures Io show and frame. / am a native Floridian and still reside in Florida which means that all my grandchildren will want lo come to Grandma's house because I live close to Disney World. I think this plan is working out pretty well so far. don't your I can teach them all to paint unlike my children who don 't seem to have as much patience with me as my grandson does. My husband says he's going to leach them how to basecoat and seal my projects. He has also informed me that I am spoiling my grandson (like he's not?) and that my daughter may have to put her foot down if I'm not careful. You see. no mailer how I try. I just always gel back to talking about grandchildren. 1 hope you can understand and be patient with me as i go through this period.

Printed in U.S.A 2 Dedication This book is dedicated to all of you who cut out your own wood pieces. I admire you and your talent, but most of all. the hard work it takes to cur nut the pieces. I enjoy being аЫе to cut out my own pieces, but many times I am unable to for one reason or another. It seems to be much more enjoyable to do decora- tive painting on the pieces I cut out myself. There is something to be said for not only embellishing a piece but also being able to create that piece, and the satisfaction that comes from doing so. I hope the designs in (his book will bring you some pleasure and that, as you cut these out, you will think about me. I would really like to be there with you at the saw. Thank You I would like to thank Jeff and Sherry Foster and their staff at Cabin Crafters for all their hard work. It took a lot of time and effort to get all these pieces cut and delivered for this book. They did a great job (as usual), and the pieces turned out really well, despite my messy drawings. Sometimes I forget the behind-the-scenes people but, believe me, these books would not be possible without their involvement. Thank you!

The One Stroke Technique How to Double Load Most designs are painted with a fiat brush that has been double loaded with paint. With a double loaded brush, you can paint many designs with one or two strokes. To double load, dampen brush, dip one side of the chisel edge of brush in one color. Dip the other side in the other color. The colors should form triangles on the brush and meet in the middle. On your palette, stroke the bnish back and forth to dis- perse the paint colors on the bnish. The colors will meet in the center and the paint will fill two thirds of the brush. When you need mac paint, pick up each color and paint, do not blend on tire palette. Don’t rinse the brush in water before reloading. Adding water tends to muddy up the paint. Roaring Medium added to the brush works great to help keep paint from drying out Pick up more paint with almost every stroke. Dip one side of the chisel edge of dampened brush into one color. Dip other side into second color. Colors should fonn triangles on the brush and meet in the middle. Stroke brush to blend colors where they meet. How to Use One Stroke" Brushes The use of One Stroke"’ Brushes is essential in achieving the One Stroke technique. They have been designed especially for this type of strokework. Following is a brief explanation for the use and/or purpose of each brush. Scruffy Brushes (Regular & Mini) I originally created my own scruffy brush by shaping the bristles of an old worn brush into the shape of an oval, after care- fully cutting them to a uniform length of about 1/2". The scruffy brush that I have created is now ready to be used straight out of the packaging. All you have to do Is "fluff the scruff," as we say. Remove the brush from the packaging and form the natural bris- tles Into a fan shape by gently pulling on them, then twist the bristles in the palm of your hand until you have shaped the brush into the fan shape. Now you are ready to pounce into paint and begin. When fluffed, the scruffy brush is used for painting mosses, wisteria, lilacs, certain hair and fur, faux finishing, and shading textures. This brush Is not used with water. However, you do have to dampen the brush, then dry It out thoroughly before painting, paying special attention to removing all excess water from the ferrule. When cleaning this brush, pounce the bristles in the brush basin rather than raking them so you will not break the bristles, as they are natural. Flat Brushes These come in six sizes: #2, #6. #8, #10. #12. and 3/4". The One Stroke Technique requires the use of these flat brushes. They are designed with longer bristles and less thickness in the body of the brush which allows foe a much sharper chisel edge. As you will see. a sharp chisel edge is essential to the technique since most of the strokes begin and end on the chisel edge of the brush. These brushes are ready to use from the package. Only a small amount of water Is used. Simply dampen the bristles In water and dry them with a paper towel before beginning. When cleaning these brushes, you may rake them in the bottom of the brush basin, as the bristles are not natural and therefore do not have as much tendency to break, but be gentle. A good tip to remember is that everyone’s comfort zone varies, and as one painter is comfortable using a size #10, another painter may be just as comfortable with size 3/4". With this In mind, use the size brush with which you feel most comfortable. Script Liners There are two sizes, #2 and rtl. I sometimes refer to the # 1 as the “mini script liner." The #1 liner is used for small detail work where a lot of control is needed. The #2 script liner Is used where less control is needed such as curlicues and string ribtons. This is one time that water is needed In the technique. Wet these brushes, then load them as follows: Make the paint inky with water by loading paint onto your palette and dipping the brush into water three or four times with your brush. Roll the brush into the diluted paint to load it, twirling the brush, and pull it out to the side of the palette. Do this until the brush is well loaded. These brushes can be cleaned like the flat brushes. Be gen- tle but clean thoroughly. continued on next page 4
The One Sitoke™ Technique Cleaning and Care Of finishes: Proper cleaning and care makes brushes Iasi'longer and perform better. I. Thoroughly rinse the brush with water, using the grid at the bottom of the Brush Basin*. 2. Squeeze finish Plus brush cleaner into the bristles and work it In with your fingers all the way to the ferrule. Rinse with water. Repeat, if needed. 3. Dry the bristles on a clean cloth rag or paper towels, shaping the bristles as you dry them. It will not harm the bristles to leave a small amount of moisture in the them. 4. Optional: I like to brush the bristles on a non perfumed, non- deodorant bar of soap to help them keep their shape. Rinse before painting again. finish Care Tips • Don't allow paint to dry In your brush. • As you paint, occasionally rinse the bristles with water. • Store brushes in the Brush Basin or in a container that allows brashes to retain their form and be separated from each other. Using Floating Medium Using Floating Medium on your brush will allow the paint to stay wet longer so that strokes glide more easily on the surface, first, load the brush—either single load, double load, or multi- load. Dip the chisel edge of the fully loaded brush into the Floating Medium puddle. Stroke back and forth on the palette, then paint. Repeat every two or three strokes. |lf you do this more often you will lose your shading.) Transferring Patterns 1. Trace pattern onto tracing paper with a pencil or pen. 2. Lay traced pattern in position on project. Slip transfer paper between pattern and painting surface. Trace pattern with a stylus to transfer it. Do not press too hard on wood surfaces or you may leave an Impnnt. Tips • You may shrink or enlarge the patterns as necessary to accom- modate the size of your project. • Use dark transfer paper for light surfaces and white for darker surfaces. • Lightly tape the pattern to the surface to keep it from sliding. • It is not necessary to trace every fine detail. Transfer the main outlines of the pattern. Tracing every detail will take away from the natural look you are trying to attain. Cutting Your Own Wood The outer edge of the design patterns can be used as a pat- tern for cutting your wood. Use the thickness of wood given in project instructions. The width of the wood you use can be 1/2", 5/8* or 3/4". The slight difference in these sizes will not alter the look of your projects. Transfer the outline of the design to the wood surface in the same manner given for transferring the design. Cut out with a jigsaw or scroll saw. Preparing the Surface I. Sand wood, sanding in the direction of the grain. Wipe surface clean of dust with a tack cloth. 2. Basecoat surface. Two coats will provide a good surface to paint on. Allow sufficient drying time between coats. You may need to lightly sand the surface after each coat to smooth down the grain of the wood raised by the paint. Painting Tips • I usually paint the larger flowers or buds first, then fill in with the leaves. • Paint your florals and leaves by building one stroke at a time. • On wildflowers or vines, paint the greenery first, then come back and paint flowers, stems, and vines. • Apply finishing touches by painting curlicues and your signature J Tulips & Dragonflies Photo Frame Pictured on page 7 I Gather These Supplies FolkArt' Acrylic Colors: Berry Wine «434 Midnight «964 Settlers Blue #607 Sunflower #432 Thicket #924 Wicker White «901 FolkArt' One Stroke1 M Brushes: Flats—sizes #6, #10, and 3/4* Scruffy Script liner—size #2 Painting Surface: Tulip frame (cut by pattern from 1/2" or 5/8" wood | Other Supplies: FolkArt' Floating Medium #868 FolkArt1 ClearCote™ Matte Acrylic Sealer #789 2 Preparation I.
