Flower Pot


Yesterday it was warm outside so I decided to paint or plant something, and I ended up painting a flower pot!

Materials I Used
  • Craft Smart Acrylic Paint ( colors I used: Turquoise, White, & Dark Yellow)  you can do any colors you like
  • Size 8 paint brush (size does not matter)
  • Small pot
Instructions: 
This is very basic. First I painted the entire pot Turquoise I didn't do the inside. After that let it dry. When it is dry you can start the flowers which where pretty hard for me. Paint a circle the size of your fingernail (thumb) with Dark Yellow, do this multiple times around the pot make sure to have some going of the edge to make it look even, then leave to dry. Now make petals, again the size of your fingernail on your thumb, do this in White then let it dry. After that you are done!
I forget to make a design around my pots rim you don't have to!

Art Show

My pottery got selected for an art show in my school district. I did a pottery flower, we were focusing on Georgia O' Keefe. This famous artist's draws close- ups on natural still life. We learned that she would drive around in desserts finding natural objects she could draw close-ups on. She normally did not make pottery. I was very excited to meet my friend, her art work was selected too!
