Happy as a Busy Bee.
Another little sweetie inspired from fabric.
I used silver as a highlight instead of my usual white, nice to mix things up.
The fine line blue sky I added at the end creates a slight effect of motion, it’s also nice to remember that you can leave space on your rocks, you don’t have to always paint the entire surface.
I have painted shapes straight on my rock – If you are not confident to do that, have a look at my final image then on your rock draw your design with a HB Pencil, sketch it until you are happy with your design.
Draw the image on your rock with a black acrylic paint fineline pen in size 0.7m.Let the pen dry completely and then erase any pencil lines from your rock. Use a white polymer eraser as it is the easiest one to use on rocks.
Colour in the image using your acrylic paint or acrylic paint pens. Pop on to our techniques page to learn more about this technique.
#TIP you will always get an even finish building up the layers. This is for Acrylic Paint or Acrylic Paint Pens.
This shading technique is created with Acrylic Paint Pens, this gives a shaded look but the permanence of acrylic paint.
