PAINTING INSTRUCTIONSTransfer on the black circle area. Paint this area with Lamp Black then paint the edges with a mixture of Titanium White + Taff y Cream 4:1. Then sponge this area with Taff y Cream. Using the white transfer paper, transfer the ribbon design onto the black circle. Paint the circle behind the bear with mix of Desert Tur-quoise + Blue Green 4:1. Float the edges with Ultrama-rine Blue. Transfer the bear on using the white paper.

BEARBase the bear’s body with Lamp black and the pink area of the ears and feet with a mix of True Red + Cadmium Orange 2:1. Using a 6/0 Script liner start painting the fur. You will start at the bottom of the belly and work upward overlapping your strokes.

Be sure to follow the form of the body. Arrows in-dicate the fur growth direction. On the head apply your strokes from the top of the head down toward the muzzle. On the muzzle, work from the outside towards the nose. Keep this area a little softer by slightly overlapping your strokes.
