Thumbprint Sheep Tutorial

Ok, 

how easy is this?

A great project

for kids, 

for adults, 

for a quick gift, 

for 

last minute craft projects. 

Trust me....EASY!

You will need:

Acrylic Paints

(the colors I used are shown below)

Some surface, basecoated.

Round brush

Liner...or Ultra Fine Sharpie if liner brushes cause you stress. 

Your thumb! 

These are the Decoart colors that I used. 

Start with the graphite

or dark gray.

Lay your thumb in it 

and 

pounce it out on your palette until it dries up a little. 

Thumbprints all around. 

With the round brush,

lay in a little grass under the sheep. 

Then do the same with your thumb and the off-white paint

right on top of the graphite ones. 

Add some fun little 

legs 

and 

heads 

and tails.

A few dots with a pen tip to look like flowers....

and 

viola! 

Literally, 

the easiest sheep you will ever "paint"!
