Repurposed Subway Art

This project of mine was inspired by a canvas painting I saw on Pinterest

 I did not have any readily available blank canvas, so I took an old painting, I had bought at a yard sale, sanded it down and painted over to get the look I wanted. I took a rusted color spray paint and painted around the edges then sprayed in the middle with black spray paint, let that dry and then I had made a stencil with the words I wanted and hand painted those on.

so heres the before, after and inspiration photos :)

its a great way to re purpose old paintings that no longer fit into your decor.
