Part two of my super hero postings, comes from an idea I had stumbled upon on the internet (though I cannot seem to find the original link). I think these paintings would look great in a man (or woman) cave or in a child's room.
I will give directions on how to make the Iron Man inspired painting.
Materials:
Paint (Maroon, yellow, orange, and white paint)
Brushes
Three canvases of the same size
Directions:
- Paint the background of the canvas maroon. Let dry.
- Find four circular objects of varying sizes.
- Trace the largest circle onto the canvas. Center the smaller ones onto each other to get the size of the arc reactor. Four overall circles (or five if you can find one small enough).
- Draw lines through some of the circles on the middle circle for the reactor lines.
- Paint the out circle yellow. Paint the reactor lines yellow. Let dry.
- Leave a ring of maroon and paint the next ring white. Also paint the inside circle (or paint the circle in) white.
- Paint the circle below the white circle orange. Let dry.
I found that adding some white paint to the yellow and the orange paint help to make it less transparent.
Now, on to framing these and finding somewhere to put them.
