One of the things I get asked to paint most often is the Union Jack flag. I love this classic flag- and it is stunning when painted on a piece. Miss.Mustard Seed did a lovely version of it that took off like wild fire through the blog world.
I love the traditional colours on this one, especially the deep navy blue.
Here are a few of the ones I have done:
I have another Union Jack that I will be working on later next week for a customer. She wants it in "Restoration Hardware" colours. Lots of greiges, grays, beige on that one. I have a cool idea for doing an American flag with a bit of chevron. Just waiting for the right piece to come through my workshop.
Happy Painting!

Thanks for stopping by my blog! So glad you did so I can see your wonderful pieces too. I have only done one Union Jack. It is a piano bench that has sold recently. I love the look on the furniture. I am a new follower now. Can't wait to see more.
ReplyDeleteWelcome! Thank you so much- I love the Union Jack, but they are time intensive! Can't wait to see more of your painted pieces :)
