Instructions:

Top Round - Jellyfish

  1. Paint the background. Using a paintbrush, paint the entire wood round with Cool Blue. Apply 2-3 coats for solid coverage, allowing each coat to dry between applications.
  2. Draw the jellyfish dome. Using the Neon Pink paint pen, draw a large dome shape in the upper center of the round for the jellyfish bell.
  3. Add tentacles. Using the Neon Pink and Neon Blue paint pens, draw flowing, wavy lines extending downward from the jellyfish bell. Vary the lengths and curves for a natural look. Refer to the photo for placement.
  4. Create details. Use the Purple paint pen to add dots and patterns on the jellyfish bell and along some tentacles. Refer to the photo for placement.
  5. Add highlights. Use the Neon Blue paint pen to add accent lines and details throughout the jellyfish design.

Bottom Round - Coral Reef

  1. Paint the background. Paint the entire wood round with Cool Blue using a paintbrush. Apply 2-3 coats, allowing drying time between coats.
  2. Paint the coral bases. Using a paintbrush, paint various coral shapes along the bottom half of the round with Flamingo Coral, Christmas Green, and Cameo Pink. Create different heights and shapes. Refer to the photo for placement.
  3. Add coral details. Use the Green paint pen to draw branching coral patterns and seaweed shapes. Add wavy lines and organic textures.
  4. Layer more colors. Use the Neon Pink and Purple paint pens to add more coral branches, dots, and decorative elements throughout the underwater scene. Refer to the photo for placement.
  5. Final touches. Add small details like bubbles, additional texture lines, and highlights with the Neon Blue paint pen.
  6. Let dry completely. Allow artwork to cure for 24-72 hours before hanging.
