Lilacs in Mason Jar

What is it? Lilacs in Mason Jar on 3 wooden boards. The boards are placed slightly away from each other rather than together. Where did we get the concept from? We got the concept from www.theartsherpa.com . We used wooden boards instead of the canvas paper. How did we make it? First we took 3 wooden boards and painted them black using spray paint.Then we made the outline of the jar and the stem using white chalk. Next we painted the jar outline white and then we mixed yellow and green paint to outline the stems and with that color we also made the leaves. After that we, with a bit of white paint did the shading of the Mason jar.  Now here comes the exciting part. We get to use the Q-tips.

What is this? This is a Rainbow Willow Tree . It looks like the tree is bending in high wind. Where did the Concept come from? What do I like about the concept? The concept came from www.theartsherpa.com . I like that it really looks like the tree is blowing in the wind. How did we make this ? First we painted the background with black and white paints.Then we drew an outline of the landscape, the leaves of the tree using chalk and with black paint sketched the trunk of the tree. Then we took different amounts of Q-tips and dipped them in the paint and painted the leaves of the tree. We used different colors so that the tree leaves look like Rainbow. Using black paint we thicken the the trunk. Then we made the grass. AND THAT IS HOW WE MADE IT. What is special about it? The special thing about it is that it has rainbow leaves. We made the leaves using ONLY Q-TIPS. The leaves have bright colors which look really nice with the white and black background.
