Do the best you can to blend in more white in this area but make sure it turns to a light purple. Ideally you want your purple to turn lighter and blend outwards (although there isn’t a lot of space in the sky to work with here).Ĭlosest to the moon is the brightest white. Gently blend in the white around the moon. Then wipe excess paint off your brush (but do not rinse). DO NOT paint the 1 inch gap closest to the moon because that will be an area we blend white into. Then when I got to my moon, I made sure my strokes went in a circular formation around the moon. I started at the bottom and painted the area around the pumpkin and above the hill. I used a pencil and lightly sketched the ground, pumpkin and cat onto the canvas.įor the moon, I used a compass, however, you can use any large circle to trace!įor the sky, I used Dioxazine Purple and a 3/4″ Flat Wash Brush. You can also look at the pictures in the gallery below for step by step how I did it.
#EASY CAT PUMPKIN PAINTING HOW TO#
In the video I will be demonstrating how to do the drawing! Draw the design onto the canvas OR use my traceable! Definitely give this one a try if saving space is what you are trying to do! Since my design is on an 11 x 14 and this sheet is a 12 x 16, I simply measured and trimmed with scissors. And the material does not curl like some of the mixed media pad paper does! They are already pre-gessoed for you (on the front side). You can easily frame them or store them in an art portfolio. Texture/ tooth is huge for me as I do not enjoy painting on a completely smooth surface!
The sheets are actual cotton canvas sheets with the same exact texture as a stretched canvas. Although I’ve done only one painting on it so far, I am pretty sure this one will be my favorite! This one is the Art Alternatives Economy Cotton Canvas Pad 12 x 16 size.
So I decided to browse Michaels and pick out different canvas pads to try out! 12 x 16 Canvas Pad I actually used a sheet of canvas paper for this painting! I’ve been getting a lot of requests about alternatives to the framed stretched canvases (which can be hard to store after you’ve done many paintings).
