In The Jungle
The Baby's Room
Cartoon Style.
Starting with a room painted "Bippity
Boppity Blue, in Disney paints with
white trim
The room has one
window
One entrance door and a double
bi fold closet door set.
Each painted white
After scetching out the design IN CHALK not pencil (because chalk disapears and pencil lines can
be seen often after the painting is done, and to me it looks very tacky to see those pencil marks.)
I
started sketching in the biggest elements in the design and that was the trees. The background paint
was already in the room and the color worked well as a background, but they "Kids" paint has a coating
that gives the acrylic paint a glaze effect, it "moves" around on the surface and has interesting almost
pinger painting effects with each brush mark, so care was needed with each stroke, even in the blocking
in of color in big areas.
Next the animals were blocked in around the room, taking care to remember those
brush strokes, because a cartoon style image needs very crisp, clean edges and smooth
appearance of the paint.
After everything is blocked in the details are needed to make the design pop off the wall, and gain
personality, all the elements of the design are individually outlined, taking extra care to keep lines
very clean, shadows and light points are added and the painting part is all done.
Now the room just needs to be
furnished and it is ready for the
new baby girl
