PROJECT SUPPLIES:
INSTRUCTIONS:
1 | Coat the surface in latex house paint with included primer. Once it has dried, paint leaf and stem shapes using the two green tones, and flowers in two red/pink tones and white.

2 | Using Slow Dry Fluid Acrylic Titanium White, create highlights on the leaves, darker petals and stems. The highlights will create a “glow” effect. You can also mix the Titanium White into the metallic paints and Slow Dry Fluid Acrylics to achieve mid-tones.

3 | On the white flowers, add light pink tones using Golden Paintworks Pre-Mixed Metallic Paint Splendor with a filbert brush or round brush. Reinforce light areas of the petals with another layer of Slow Dry Fluid Acrylic Titanium White.

4 | Add depth and contrast to the ligher pink tones using Pre-Mixed Metallic Paint Vintage Copper. Continue adding detail – light lines on dark areas, dark lines on light areas, until the desired effect is reached.
