Then use a 5/0 round brush and titanium white to paint the “sparks” on the sparkler. Tip: make sure you load the paint right on the tip of the brush to get the thin lines. Then load your palette with some cadmium red medium hue and paint red radiating lines over the white lines (but don’t cover all the white lines). Use your #4 round brush and titanium white to paint radiating lines on the edge of the sparkler. Also, if the #4 round brush seems too thick for those thin lines, you can switch to a 5/0 round brush or similar size. Tip: you can simplify this without the highlights and shadows! Simply paint the sticks a solid color of brown or gray. Paint the flag pole stick with black and white mixed together to make a light gray. Vary the line when you paint the sticks so that there are some lighter and some darker areas. Use a #4 round brush to paint each of the sticks. Load your palette with burnt Sienna, mars black and titanium white. Draw the wavy flag and the rectangle shape inside the upper left. Then draw a few diagonal lines going in a radial direction on the top of each of the sparkler sticks. Draw three diagonal lines on the inside of the jar for the sparkler sticks and the flag pole. Then draw an upside down curved line on the inside bottom of the jar. Then curve the bottom part of the jar and have the bottom piece go flat. Try your best to make each side of the mason jar symmetrical. The top rim of this drawing is in the very center of the canvas and the width is about 4 inches wide.ĭraw two very thin horizontal oval shapes for the rim.ĭraw a very small vertical line under the rim and then draw the side so it curves outwards a bit. If you are using the traceable, you will want to use white transfer paper below it so it shows up on the dark background. Alternatively you can also use my traceable if you do not want to do the drawing. Use a chalk pencil or piece of chalk to draw the mason jar. Draw The Mason Jar & Sparklers/ Flag (or use template) Basically you want to leave the middle part open because that is where the mason jar will be situated. Paint a layer of grass blades along the bottom edge of the canvas but make sure these are shorter. The ones closest to the left and right of the canvas are longer. Then paint another layer of grass blades that start a little below the first layer you painted. Next mix a little titanium white into the hooker’s green hue permanent color on your palette so that it becomes a lighter green. Release pressure on the brush as you stroke up and this will create the points on the grass. Tip: Hold your angle brush so the highest part of the angle is opposite of the direction you are going in. Paint them so they are going diagonal away from where the mason jar will be in the center. Paint the blades along the bottom of the canvas (about an inch from the bottom). Start with the color hooker’s green hue permanent. Use a 3/8″ angle brush (or round brush) to paint the grass blades. Next use a toothbrush or any paint brush to splatter small white dots all throughout the background. The cobalt blue is applied very loosely and thin. It is important not to cover all the black and to leave a lot of it showing through. Paint these circles radiating from the center to the outer edges of the canvas.

Paint circular strokes using the full width of the brush. Load your 3/4″ flat wash brush with cobalt blue.
This is a great way to reuse a “mess up painting”! You can purchase canvases that are painted black all the way or your can easily paint a coat of black over any canvas. I also have a team of the most incredible women at my back - meet them on the "Our Team" page.Start with a pre-painted black canvas.
Now I run Soul Sparklettes Art with my incredible partner, Jennifer Bassett, an art teacher in New York. So after failing to find what I wanted, I founded Soul Sparklettes Art and The Glitter Bomb® with a single mission – to inspire and empower anyone who teaches art to kids – 700 a day, or only 1 at the dining table. I wanted projects that were kid-approved: dragons, pirates, and aliens - as well as taught a robust art curriculum. Homeschoolers told me that teaching art felt out of their reach and that they weren’t welcomed in other art teaching communities.Īrt teachers told me that they were tired of the same old lessons, and they were feeling burnt out and uninspired. I illustrated the characters, where they lived, what they wore.Īs soon as I had kids, I immediately started hosting art-themed play dates and teaching other homeschoolers. As a child, I spent hours drawing in my bedroom.
