The Warli Artist Within

Okay, so I can do Warli too. My first time on this  24 centimeter galvanized steel plant pot from Ikea.

 0107650_PE257429_S4 IMG_2747And this is how it looks now!

I hand-painted Warli motifs with Chrome Black (acrylic color) on this planter.

Here are some more details.

IMG_2742 My Peace Lily looks happy to get this painted pot.
IMG_2741I am not sure if black looks good on silver, maybe I should have used red. Another day, hopefully.

    It looks BEAUTIFUL. No black is good, and it will look good anywhere. The red might have looked by itself, but with the green and the surrounding it is just perfect! I have plan for my next IKEA trip.

    You know I use the Halloween Cauldrons to keep my plant pots :-)
