Print Project

Step 1

Lay your canvas panel on your work surface, then brush paint onto one hand and press it onto the panel to make a leaf. Repeat for as many leaves as you would like on your canvas. Let dry.
TIP: Clean hands between switching paints, or for more interesting leaves, mix them together directly onto the hand.

Step 2

Cut chenille pipe cleaners to fit onto each handprint leaf. This will make the veins of the leaves. Glue them into place. Let dry.
