The dog nose was painted using black acrylic paint with white, to create grays. Reflection spots were added in white acrylic paint. Once irises were colored, black acrylic paint was used to color in pupils and the outer edge of eyes. You're best off watching Natalie's eye coloring tutorial here. This process created slightly blended colors where one color ring transforms into the next, and it really looks like the streaks of iris color. The third and fourth colors was applied in this same way. The next lightest color was applied in the same way, but slightly touching the first ring of color in order to have the two colors blend. Starting at the outer edge of eye ball with the darkest color, students colored a ring of color always coloring in the direction of the pupil. Eyes were colored using 3-4 analogous oil pastel colors. Students traced their eyes and nose on good watercolor or acrylic paper. I don't usually use tracers, but felt they were fitting for this projects since the focus was really on pastel blending, painting for dimension and definition, and collaging, and the tracers really saved us a lot of time and effort in an already lengthy, multi-step project. I prepared tracers of cat eyes, dog eyes, cat nose, and a small and large dog nose. ![]() Students chose to do either a cat or a dog (large or small breed).

And boy, was it fun!īe aware that this project is rather time-consuming, as it requires many steps and is done on a large format. I've been wanting to do this project for ages, ever since I saw it on the blog can find Natalie's original post here.Īfter many illustration and painting projects under our belt, I wanted to do a paper art project with my kids, and knew this one would be perfect for all ages. ![]()
