How it is done:

Cover the work area and prepare the materials.
First, mix the colours you need for the picture. It is best to do this in a separate container, such as an old, clean yoghurt pot. For the stretcher frame, lighten leaf green, medium yellow and cherry red with white, then combine them with light blue.
Then use the paint sponge to dab paint onto the picture. Create areas in different colours. To achieve different shades of the same colour, tint it further with white acrylic paint on the palette or mix the colours together to create soft transitions between areas.
Gradually add more and more areas of colour with the sponges, allowing them to overlap and blend gently into one another. Leave to dry thoroughly.
