PAINTING STEPS

Use cake tempera paints to paint a background and the details on the automobile. Block tempera is much like watercolor paints merely are more vibrant and intense. I like them meliorate for this project because the paint will not comprehend up the lines similar liquid tempera will.

Select ONE color of paint and mix with white. This creates a TINT.

The tint allows the details in the car to stand up out. While children should choose their own color, hash out what colors will work with the cartoon so that the Christmas car will be the focus.

Once the background is consummate, the children tin brainstorm painting the car, tree and decorations.

This is the fourth dimension to allow children go wild! Pick their own colors, dream upwards a fancy car color and add festive details to the superlative of the roof.

Once the tempera paint has dried, it helps to trace over any lines that are hard to see. This is as well a dandy time to use colored oil pastels to add details. I used metallic gold and silverish pastels to add stripes on the gift packaging.

Children may desire to add together a string of Christmas lights, etc.
