Surface Prep
 
Apply Mod Podge generously to the canvas surface with a foam brush or large brush.  Make sure the entire surface is covered.  Apply the map to the canvas so that the map design is face up.  Smooth the map out as much as possible with fingers and/or credit card.  There will be some bubbles, but they won’t interfere with your painting.  Flip the board over and apply Mod Podge to the back of the map edges.  Fold the edges over and make sure they adhere to the back of the canvas board.  Allow to dry completely.
 
We will transfer the pattern in class.
