How to Use a Pumpkin to Make a Beautiful Flower Painting
Have you ever heard of making a painting using a pumpkin? Well, it's true. You can make a beautiful painting using a pumpkin! If you do it right, it will turn out looking like a flower!
Supplies
- Pumpkin
- Different colors of paint
- canvas
Removing the Stem From the Pumpkin
If your pumpkin has a stem, grab a knife and get underneath the stem of the pumpkin and start prying the stem up. Without damaging the pumpkin.
Make sure all of the stem is removed from the pumpkin.
Wash the pumpkin and make sure the pumpkin is completely dry.
Painting the Canvas White or Black
Paint the entire canvas white or black [ except for the back of the canvas ]. And let it completely dry.
Place the pumpkin in the center of the canvas.
Making the Flower Design
Pour gold or silver paint directly in the center of the pumpkin [ basically where the stem was ], and let it drip down the sides of the pumpkin.
Then add another color.
You can start forming a patern, I did silver, purple, pink, turquoise, blue, and I just used that patern until it started to look like a flower.
Once you have a circle that looks like a flower carefully remove the pumpkin from the canvas.
Optional Step
Take a thicker skewer and place the tip of it at the begining of one of the flower petals, and lightly drag it to the end of the petal. Wipe the end the skewer every time you put it in paint.
You can do this with every petal.
Complete!
Let the flower completely dry before doing anything with it.
All done! I hope you enjoyed looking at this.
