How to paint frida using tcw stencil

Trace over your stencil using a waterproof pen

Sketch over and around using the same waterproof pen

Trace a half circle behind her with a light pencil mark

Write over. I've written my fave Frida quote "feet what do I need you for if I have wings to fly"

Add rays using the rejoice Stencil

Continue moving it around your drawn circle

Ready for some paint!

Begin your skin shading. I'm using watercolor soluble pencils

Begin working on the hair and flowers

Frida loved her jewelry so I gave her some. I'm using a gel gold pen

Begin working on her dress

I took some inspiration from one of Fridas photos

Paint the flowers in her dress

Using gilt paint the rays behind her back

I used stickles to highlight the silver wings

And she's ready!!!
