What
is 3D decoupage?
Nowadays
3D decoupage (cut out) is an immensely popular hobby and it
involves paper-cutting.
You need 4 to 6 copies of the same picture, a tube of silicon-kit, a
hobby-knife and a lot of patience.Anton
Pieck’s pictures are well suited for this art form. He designs
his pictures in minute detail , in pretty colours. Moreover, he mostly
paints nostalgic sceneries.As
an art form it evolved in Italy to imitate oriental lacquer work. Nowadays,
with or without the use of a manual, you can create your own art-work
by carefully cutting out, shaping and assembling the various pieces.
Basis
Instructions for 3D decoupage
English:
| 1 |
Cut
out the pieces with a hobby-knife; write the number at the back.
Use a cutting-mat. The blade of your knife must be sharp. |
| 2 |
Go
along the edges of the cutout pieces with a 4B pencil. This will
eliminate cutting lines. |
| 3 |
Look
carefully how you shape the various pieces. How do you shape the
front and back of a basket? How do you shape a tulip or a daffodil?
Shape the pieces along a round object (a round pen or pencil). Crease
when necessary: a roof of a house; the house itself, etc. etc. |
| 4 |
Attach
the cutout pieces with a ‘blob’ of silicon-kit. Use
a toothpick or better: a ‘sate-stick’ to apply the kit.
On large areas the ‘blobs’ should be 1½ to 2cm
apart. |
| 5 |
Build up the pieces in numerical order. |
| 6 |
Varnish
and frame the picture. |

Pegar el número 1 con “Technocol” sobre la base del plano: construir desde 2- la pieza de trabajo poniendo pequeñas bolitas de silicone-kit sobre las piezas, con la ayuda de (por ejemplo) unos palillos largos y finos. |
| 4 |
Trabajar con miniciosidad y precisión. Pegar las correspondendientes piezas con exactitud unas sobre otras. |

Varnishing:
with high-gloss 3D varnish.
Apply
the varnish thickly. Dab it on and only brush on a small area at –a-time.
Don’t try to brush out the varnish backwards and forwards like
household paint.Do
not varnish the background.
Do not varnish large areas.
Keep the picture flat.
Check the next day: if necessary varnish again. Manuals.For
a beginner a manual is essential.
Follow the instructions. What is most important is to look and think
for yourself so that you understand what you are doing.
 *part of a manual
When
you ‘build up’ your picture you begin by no. 1 until you
finish with the last number. Have the frame with you. You can check then whether you build up too
high or too low.
Additional
Information
Overcutting
Sometimes
sections from an adjacent area must be included in the cut; this is
called an “overcut” and is used to disguise certain edges
when further layers are added.
This is indicated on the manual with a cross and arrow.
Frames
The
lengths of material of which the frames are made are specially commissioned.
They have a recess of 28mm and 40mm. High enough to house your decoupage.
They are assembled in our workshop with great care and craftsmanship.
Not in the sun!
Never ever hang your "Shadowbox" in the sun! |
