Unartistic Picture Perfect


When it comes to drawing I fail at drawing stick men. I am so unartistic. When I was in college we would have HUGE missions conferences and would build mini-villages completely decked out. You would think that everyone was artistic; however, this was far from the truth. We were just all hard workers.
The secret we had was a projector. We would find a sign, picture or what not on the computer, blow it up, trace and color. Most anyone can trace and with that comes some REALLY awesome designs. Recently we changed our teen room and added a logo. The guys designed it on their computer, projected it and we filled it in. The results were AMAZING! The logo looks like it was hand painted on, but you all know our little secret.
This technique can be used at home to draw trees and characters or sayings on your walls at home. If you don't want big quantities of paint, you can always get a tester at Lowes or Home Depot. That way you don't have to pay for whole quart and you can still get any color you want.
Here is our final project. It looks great and teens love it! Voila! - rejoicing in the present.
