Take an aluminium kettle and to decorate it further, you have to apply a prime coat first.

I have used white acrylic color as prime coat. The advantage of applying a prime coat is the next layer color will be more prominent and the top layer painting will be brighter.

First Layer Application

Choose at least two colors of your choice on which you are going to paint further.

It is advisable to apply multiple coats for better result.

Draw the Outlines

First draw your design with a pencil and then follow the marked lines with zero size paint brush.

If you have given lighter shade in the first layer, it is advisable to draw the outlines at least double shade darker of the first layer. Its better choose dark colors from your color pallets to draw all your outlines.

I have used black color as making the outlines for MADHUBANI design over the first layer painting which is neon green.

Adding More Designs

Apply designs and colors according to your imagination.

Its better to use contrast colors over the first layer.

I have used neon pink color to decorate the flowers which is going with my prime MADHUBANI painting.

Applying 3D Liners

To give a 3D texture or to draw sharp colorful lines, you can use 3D liners.

Filling Colors in to the Designs

You should give a color on handle which is very much contrast to your kettle container color.

Then design and decorate with liners and colors.
