One of my jobs with this Rum Bar / Restaurant, is to decorate the entrance doors with naïve styled Caribbean paintings.
I found some excellent historic licensing crests for the trade of rum into Europe. The problem I have involves getting them onto these blasted panels! Got a few methods that could work, including hand painting, stencilling, sticking printed images onto the doors and then painting over them......but the one I will go with is a method of transferring the printed image onto the door by a very cunning method....which I will be doing over the next couple of days! ......update to follow! The panels look fantastic - worn and merged into the paintwork with a method of transferring the images from paper using a gel medium. Alas - the bar owner has gone AWOL and so shall not be receiving the panels in any kind of finished state until he has paid me my outstanding deposit - No good finishing them if I aint getting paid, no matter how interesting!
