How Do You Paint Multilayer Airbrush Stencils?
Using stencils to paint with an airbrush is a way of quickly applying complicated shapes to a surface, which even a beginner can use effectively. By adding multiple layers of stencils to the painting, you can increase the painting’s complexity, turning unconnected shapes into complete scenes. These multilayered paintings have more of a free-painted look to them, instead of the outlined and gapped appearance commonly associated with stencil painting, and with the right process can be as easy to use as the single layered stencils. Prepare the surface for painting. You’ll need a clean dry surface, with any surrounding surfaces or objects covered to protect them from errant paint spray. Place the first stencil layer onto the surface to be painted. Your stencil should lie completely flat on the surface. Secure it to your painted surface either by weighing it down with coins, or by taping it into place. Once secured, mark the stencil edges so that newer layers can be placed precisely aligned
