How To Make

Fish Painting: Step 1

To draw the fish, start by drawing an oval shape, but cut one of the ends off with a straight line.

Add a tail and some fins on the top, bottom and middle of the fish.

Draw a curved line for the face and add an eye and a big smiley face.

Add some bubbles near the fish's mouth, and some seaweed growing for the bottom.

Fish Painting: Step 2

Time to start painting! Paint the background first, Then begin adding colour to the other parts of the fish. You can choose any colours you like!

House Painting: Step 1

Start by drawing a rectangle, and then a smaller triangle on top to the right hand side.

Draw in the rest of the roof and then add in a chimney and a door.

Add a round window to the top and two square ones on the side of the house.

Finally, draw a tree beside the house with lots of circles inside for the fruit!

House Painting: Step 2

Begin painting by colouring in the background and then adding in the rest of the details.

Rocket Painting: Step 1

The rocket starts off as a big triangle before adding more triangle to the side and a circle in the middle for a window.

Add two rectangles underneath for the rocket boosters and fill the outer spcae with the moon, stars and other planets!

Rocket Painting: Step 2

Paint the background first, then start adding colours to all your planets and the rocket!

Tiger Painting: Step 1

Draw a big circle for the tigers head, and add two triangles for the ears. Add the body and a big wiggly shape for the tail!

Add the shape in the middle of the face, then add more triangles for the face, and stripes on the tail and body.

Draw some ovals on the top of the head and on the sides, and then add in the nose and eyes.
