You might have seen one of Barbara Elmore's large chandelier canvases. There are several versions of these, ranging from a shoe chandelier to a Halloween-themed one to the latest which is the Mad Hatter's Chandelier, full of teapots and tea cups and fun. These all seem to be two feet square and painted on 18 count canvas.

Ever wonder how these large canvases are painted? Barbara talks about her experiments on painting backgrounds for these big canvases. The next time I complain about stitching an endless background, I'll remember someone had to paint all those inches first!
