Step#4: Here I remove the sun stencil and go around the moon stencil with
my dark brown. This casts the moons shadow on the sun. In real life I don’t
think this would be possible, but this is art so anything is possible.
Step#5: I use yellow and fill in the sun followed by heat setting the paint
with a hair dryer. Now with my light brown I fill in the facial features, do this
lightly to give the features a soft edge. This really makes the sun appear
rounded and not so flat.
Step#6: It’s time to work on the moon; I removed the stencil and grabbed
my gray. I fill in the features of the face and add a shadow to the left side of
the moon. Keep these lines soft as well. These lines are nothing more than
soft dagger strokes. I told you previously that the dagger stroke is impor-
tant to learn and this is just another example of where it is used.
Step#7: Now I add the craters to the moon using a couple different size
half circle stencil and my gray paint. You can add them anywhere and as
many as you like. I also add a few full circles, be imaginative it’s your tag. I
use yellow on the front edge of the moon to make it appear that the sunlight
is reflecting off of it. This adds a nice effect and brings some more color to
the design.
Step#8: Time to finish up the tag. White is used to add some high-
lights to the craters I created on the moon also to highlight the
eyes and cheeks of the sun. I also add a few stars to the sky and I
always add the big dipper. After the highlights are finished dry the
tag thoroughly and clear with your favorite clear coat. I use Krylon
with UV protection that I get at my local craft store.
That’ll do it for this time. I hope Gene can use this design as well
as the rest of you. I sell this one for $20 plus tax and it sells pretty
well for me.
