Instructions

  1. Using a medium paintbrush and Magenta paint, paint a narrow heart shape for each berry you want to paint. Add paint across the top to fill in the heart.
  2. Blend a tiny amount of White paint into the Magenta paint. This will create a lighter shade. Using the same brush, paint over one side of the berries with the lighter color. This creates a highlight as if the sun was hitting the berry.
  3. Using the detail brush and white paint, paint the seeds of the berry over the highlighted areas. Allow to dry.
  4. Paint the flowers by dipping the medium brush into Yellow Light paint. Tap off the excess paint. Paint 5 petals for each daisy. For small daisies, just paint little tiny buds.
  5. Blend a small layer of White over the yellow to add highlights.
  6. Dip the handle end of the paintbrush into Magenta paint, swirl the paint on the center of each flower. Allow to dry.
  7. Using a detail paintbrush and Yellow Citron paint, paint free flowing vines and stems for the strawberries and flowers.
  8. Use the same paint to paint stems on the berries. Paint small notches to be buds.
  9. Using Hauser Green and a detail brush, paint stems top and leaves to the vines. Allow to dry.
  10. Add gems to the center of the flowers with gem glue.
