Milk Churn Restoration and Painting.

I was recently asked to do a painting on an old milk churn that had previously been painted.
Before I could start doing my painting on the milk churn I had to do some restoration work, removing the old paint and fixing the dents and re-paint it before I could start doing my painting on it.

Here is my churn along with some before and after pictures of the process.

As it was when I was asked to paint it.

Dents filled in and smoothed.

I am really pleased with how this commission turned out and so are the clients.
