HomeGoods, a place of affordable art and decor and more, offers endless possibilities for those willing to think outside the box.

Honestly, HomeGoods’ art pieces can be a bit bland and generic, but they’re sized perfectly and can give your space the lift it deserves. These mass-produced pieces often come in ideal dimensions for common wall spaces, making them a practical starting point for custom art.

In a short clip, Silverio demonstrates a DIY transformation of a HomeGoods piece she found on sale. Her technique involves applying oil paint over the existing artwork, then rubbing it across the entire canvas. Through this process, she creates a dark and moody masterpiece that she can proudly call her own.

What makes this work is that rather than starting from scratch, you’re working with a pre-stretched, properly sized canvas that already has a base layer of paint. The existing artwork provides a textural base, while oil paint’s slow drying time allows for plenty of blending and manipulation to create depth and complexity.
