# 3 and # 5

For the Basecoat apply 2-3 coats of C. When dry, varnish with a Low Luster Varnish. After 24 hours of
drying- time, base paint is ready for antiquing.
The varnish will help to control the antiquing process and keeps the paint from soaking too much into the
basecoat.
For the ANTIQUING I used mix # 1, make a few thick stroked on the basecoat and wash with a moist
sponge throughout the area. Afterwards, wipe off the paint with a soft rag, keeping the edges darker.

Tulip:
Basecoat with 2 coats of HB. While wet, shade with mix #2 from the bottom up and use W from the top
down (cover 3/4 of tulip). Overstroke with W. Keep tulip moist so overstrokes will blend into the base.

Leaves:
Basecoat with mix # 4 and outline with mix # 3.

Space- filling comma strokes:


" C " strokes and veins are done with mix # 3 or SBY and W for dots, Use brush # 3 balance colors and
strokes.

Finishing:
Apply two coats of oil based polyurethane varnish
