- Pure White (ADSA02)

INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: Let dry completely between painting steps.
- Gather the materials.
- With Pure White, paint a basecoat around the bottom part of each pot, leaving the rims unpainted.
- With various paintbrushes, create patterns around the pots in bands. (Here I used Classic Black loaded on a small flat brush to make vertical lines.)
- Moving on up the pot, create the next band by making a diamond design with a dot of paint in the middle with the handle end of the paintbrush dipped in Classic Black.
- For the next pot, paint Classic Black lines with a small round brush, varying the line direction.
- Moving up the pot, using the handle end of the paintbrush dipped in Classic Black, make a band of dots.
- To give visual interest, vary each band of design patterns.
- Vertical lines and shapes look nice with the black and white color palette.
- For the third pot, basecoat the bottom with Classic Black. Let dry completely. Make brush-work patterns in Pure White.
- Continue the same process as the other two pots to cover the pot in patterned line work.
- Place them together to see if any changes or touch-ups need to be made. Think about all of the possibilities that these can be used for: Use as flower pots, utensil holders, storage containers, gift baskets, etc.
