Materials: blank canvas, Crayola Slick Stix {they cost around $10}, water, pencil
I decided for my project to work on something Noah could put in his new ‘big boy’ room…Lightning McQueen. I looked at a picture of Lightning on a poster Noah has as I sketched.
STEP 1: Lightly sketch an outline onto your canvas in pencil.
STEP 2: Starting with your main color, outline and roughly fill in colored areas.
STEP 3: Repeat using your next color.
STEP 4: Continue until all colors are in place.
STEP 5: Dip your fingertip in water and gently rub, which will smear the color.
STEP 6: Roughly color in a background.
STEP 7: Dip finger in water and smear background colors.
STEP 8: While canvas is still damp, go back and color directly onto canvas in any areas that aren’t as dark as you like and gently smudge color around.
