Let’s begin with a neutral background by applying a coat of white paint to the canvas. While it’s still wet, blend in Delta Shadow Gray, using the brush to pounce and press the paint for added texture. Then, use a heat tool to dry.
Grab your tracer, tape it to your canvas, place graphite paper underneath, and trace the pumpkin with a stylus.
Now, let’s bring the pumpkin to life! I’ll be using Spiced Pumpkin, Georgia Clay, Sunset Gold, and white paint, working one section at a time. Start by covering a section with Spiced Pumpkin. Then, with the backside of a palette knife, swipe on Georgia Clay along one side, Sunset Gold in the center,...
