Mask off the face area by cutting a piece
of paper the same shape as the area you’d
like to protect. Airbrush the hair softly in
lines with Colour Flo Baby Blue diluted with
rejuvenator spirit. This can be achieved by
using your airbrush on one of the lower
modes and spraying colour in a line close
to the plaque. Using the edge of a piece of
paper will help to guide your lines. Direct
the spray onto the edge of the paper to
achieve a clean line. This can be practiced
first on paper to build up your confidence.
Repeat this process with diluted Colour Flo
Rose. Where the colours over spray each
other, you will get a lovely lilac colour as
pink and blue together make purple!Remove the paper from the face area
and softly shade around the edges of
the face using diluted Colour Flo Rose.
Use the edge of a piece of paper to help
guide your lines. With the diluted Colour
Flo Baby Blue, gently shade over the pink
areas. Softer shading can be achieved on
a lower mode by pulling the trigger back
gently until a soft spray of colour is visible.
Build up slowly. Use an oval shaped piece
of paper to help shade around the curve
of the sunglasses, nose and chin. With the
diluted Colour Flo Rose, softly airbrush
over the shoulders and add lines of colour
on the hair. This can be achieved by using
your airbrush on one of the lower modes
and spraying colour in a line close to the
plaque. Practise first on paper if you do not
feel confident.Moving on to the sunglasses, airbrush lines
of colour across. Remember to always
check the flow of colour onto kitchen
paper first. Start with Rose at the top of the
glasses and move on to Yellow and then
Orange. After the Orange, ensure you clean
through your airbrush thoroughly. Then,
use diluted Baby Blue for the bottom of
the sunglasses and going slightly over the
orange line to make a hazy horizon effect.Masking and
Shading
Use Rainbow Dust Colours’ Paint It! in
Black and a fine artist paintbrush to add
the details to the sunglasses. A horizon
line and palm trees create a paradise
scene. Carefully paint around the frames
of the sunglasses. Using a medium sized
paintbrush, paint details to the face and
hair.
