Step 1 • Make Thumbnail • sketches Make several small Sketches to come up with an idea for your design
Step 2 • Do a rough draft 5” x 8” paper size figure out exactly how you want your design to look and draw it out.
Step 3 • Show it to someone- Classmate- Teacher – Parent- Friend Ask for feedback - Ask “Could I do something to improve the design”
Step 4- Option A • Trace your rough draft design on a 5 x 8 piece of clear overhead paper (found in the supply drawers) • Put the overhead on the overhead paper • Tape your illustration board to the wall • Use a pencil to trace your design
Step 4 – Option B • Free hand draw your final design onto your large illustration board
Step 5 • Trace over your pencil lines with a THICK or Medium tipped Sharpie marker. • Make sure you trace around all objects that you need to know where the edge is.
Step 6 • Color ALL of the WHITE space with oil pastel. • DO NOT LEAVE ANY WHITE BOARD SHOWING • Color it Thick • Don’t color over your sharpie lines • Use good colors – light colors are best, dark colors get lost in the background.
Step 7 • Spray paint the entire drawing with black spray paint. • Use FLAT paint • Do small thin layers and let it dry • Do not get too much paint • As soon as it is covered STOP spraying. • Too much paint will not scratch easily
Step 8 • Carefully scratch your lines, designs, patterns and song lyrics into the black paint using a scratch art tool. • Make sure you are using the tool correctly • It would be a good idea to practice this on a scrap first. I usually have one up front you can practice on.
