INSTRUCTIONS
NOTES:
Let dry completely between painting steps.
- Use a 3/4" flat brush to paint a metal bowl with Black Gloss Enamels.
- Use a #2 round brush to paint different shapes and sizes of irises on the Styrofoam balls: Burnt Umber, Jack-O'-Lantern Orange, Festive Green, Citron Green, Ocean Blue, and Purple Cow. Outline the eyes and add different-sized pupils with Lamp Black and the #2 round brush.
- With the same brush, make eyes bloodshot by adding lines of True Red.
- Fill the bowl halfway with confetti and arrange the eyes randomly so they are looking in differing directions
