Whimsical Castles with Tomi

Whimsical Castles

Picture
Materials:

. White paper - construction paper will do

. Palette- a paper plate works well

. Acrylic paints – limit to 3 or 4 colors, plus a metallic paint if desired. 
  You will only need about a quarter size pour of each color of paint.

. Strips of sturdy cut cardboard or firm paper strips- approx. 3” x 1”

. Black Marker – Sharpie or Bic Marking

.  Protective covering for workspace

.   Apron or old t-shirt to protect clothing


​Steps:
  1.  Orient paper to portrait (make it tall)
  2. Dip the widest part of your cardboard brush into two colors (double load) using a small amount of paint.
  3. Start at the bottom of your paper and drag your paint upward to make your castle towers.  If your tower is not tall enough add more paint and do it again. 
  4. Make multiple towers, stagger the heights for interest.  Remember these are whimsical and fun, let them be charming, not perfect.
  5. Wait for paint to dry before using marker. 
  6. While your paint dries find castle photos for details.  Look at the architecture; the windows, the turrets…
  7. Use black marker to add design elements after the paint is dry.  Use your imagination and have fun!
Tips:
  1. A little bit of paint is better because you want some white to peek through for texture.  
  2. Speed up the drying process with a hair dryer. 
  3. Make sure paint is dry before using marker. Drawing on your painting while wet may ruin your marker and your painting.​
