Let’s put out great positive vibes and rock creations for a positive journey along the adventure for one of my closest friends Lisa who has finally decided to try to fall pregnant after a long journey through polycystic ovarian syndrome?
Well this rock covers all bases with fertility symbols! But this is a favourite of the group – the Kokopelli who presides over both childbirth and agriculture. Here’s the Oxford definition of Kokopelli: (Ko·ko·pel·li) A fertility god of the southwestern Native American culture. Depicted as a hunchbacked flute player, he is known as a playful prankster and storyteller.
Let’s vibe this one for all women that need a hand to hold during a similar journey ? I see you ? I hear your struggle ? Big Hugs ?
Let the previous paint lines dry, now add in some highlights and decorations.
Use a white fineline acrylic paint pen and highlight a few places on the rock – this represents light that reflects on your rock. Mark in all the decorations, the notes coming out of the music instrument are signs of fertility. This is the fertility goddess as is the Kokopelli.
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. Create this background as a water wash look. This is done by dipping the pen in clean water and painting it on to the rock. A thin watery layer happens, and you can do this with each colour. Pop on to our techniques page to learn more about this technique.
If you are using acrylic paint paint dab a touch on your palette and add some water to make it watery and dab this on your rock .
#TIP you will always get an even finish building up the layers. This is for Acrylic Paint or Acrylic Paint Pens.
This technique is created with Acrylic Paint Pens, this gives the watercolour look but the permanence of acrylic paint.
This rock’s background was created with Posca paint pens in Blue – Light Blue – Light Pink – Fuschia – Yellow & Orange
Let the previous paint dry.
Use a black acrylic paint pen and colour in both characters.
