Steps for painting a flower petal
We’ve all had it happen. We’re busy working a gig, happily painting 6-year-old mermaids, and a teenage girl apprehensively sits in your chair. She wants to join in the fun but is far too sophisticated for a full-face kitty cat or butterfly. She asks you for… (cue dramatic music) something cool! What do you paint?!
The fancy eye design is hugely popular with this (and every) age group. Add this to your portfolio and you’ll quickly see an influx in older clientele. Enjoy!

Step 1
For this eye design, I made a soft base with metallic white, light pink and neon orange on a sponge. To give it added interest, I added a light stencil pattern with purple.
Because I want this design to be feminine with an ‘open look’, I have to keep in mind that lines, teardrops or swirls coming from the outer corner of the eye are going upwards first, and never down.
The upper part of the design shouldn’t go beneath the line from nostril to the outer corner of the eye.
This helps the design to say well-balanced and pleasing to the eye.
Step 2
Keeping that invisible line in mind, I add a few one-stroke flower petals with a split cake (Silly Farm, Peaches N’ Cream Natalee Davies’ collection) and a ½ inch angle brush. Before the petals dry, I apply glitter on top of the petals (Silly Farm, Mama Clown’s Orange Burst).
Next, I add some simple double-dip flower petals using purple as my second color. I try to establish flow by giving all the small petals a direction pointing towards the central focal point (the upper petals) and chin focal points (the petals on the cheek).

How to Paint an Acrylic Poinsettia
In this tutorial, I will walk through the steps to painting a poinsettia flower with acrylic paint. This acrylic poinsettia would make a wonderful addition to your holiday decor, or you could gift it to a loved one this holiday season!
I’ll be sharing how to paint this on a canvas, but there are lots of ways you can create your poinsettia! You could follow along with this tutorial to make hand-painted holiday cards or even an ornament! There are so many festive options!
This painting is all about layers and movement. We’ll be painting a lot of layers to give the painting depth and interest. And we’ll add flourishes and brushstrokes to add a sense of movement to the petals. By the end of the tutorial, your painting will look something like this!
Note: This tutorial is for your personal enjoyment. This image is copyrighted and cannot be recreated or sold for profit.
Before you dive in, know that you have complete creative freedom with this piece. I’m giving you a structure, but you’re free to make it your own! In fact, I encourage you to do so! If you want to use different colors than me or different accent paint strokes, go for it! I can’t wait to see what you paint!
I’ll be using a canvas in the tutorial, but you can recreate this on an ornament, card, or whatever you want!
You don’t need to get anything fancy here! I prefer the Simply Simmons brushes like this one. You’ll just want to make sure that you have a large, medium, and small brush.
These are optional, but they’re great for adding details and flourishes at the end of the piece. My favorite brand to use is Posca!
Step 1: Mix Your Colors
Before you begin, you’ll want to mix your paint. Most of the colors we’ll use in this tutorial are straight out of the tube, but you’ll need to mix a mint green for the background of this piece.
To do that, use six parts Titanium White, one part Cadmium Yellow and one part Turquoise. You want to make sure to add the yellow and turquoise little by little so not to overpower the mint color.
If you are totally new to paint mixing and color theory, I’d encourage you to check out this post first, and then come back so you’ll be more familiar with the process!
Here’s how my mint looked mixed.
