Tracing and Transferring a Pattern:
1. Place the printed pattern face side up before you.
2. Lay a sheet of tracing paper on top of the printed pattern. NOTE: you may secure the sheet of tracing paper to your surface with a piece of tape.
3. Using a soft lead pencil, or a fine point permanent ink black marker, trace over the main pattern lines. DO NOT worry about tracing over detail lines as they will not be transferred.

Painting Instructions:
1. Daisies – Paint yellow daisy petal using Lemon Custard. Over stroke a few petals with Wicker White to create highlights. Paint the centers Lemon Custard shaded with AP Burnt Sienna. Highlight the centers with Wicker White. Paint tiny dots of AP Burnt Sienna and Licorice around the daisy center and accent the upper right center with tiny dots of Wicker White.
2. Daisy Leaves – Paint the large leaves with AP Hauser Green Medium, accent with Fresh Foliage. Add small accent leaves of Calypso Sky.
3. Large Butterflies – Paint the upper wings of the large butterfly Wicker White shaded with Calypso Sky. Add brush strokes of Lemon Custard when dry. The lower wings are painted Wicker White and accented with brush strokes of Calypso Sky. Paint the body and antennae with Licorice.
4. Small Butterflies – Paint the upper wings with Wicker White and shade with AP Hauser Green Medium. Add Lemon Custard polka dots. Paint the lower wingers Wicker White and accent with AP Hauser Green Medium strokes. The body and antennae are painted Licorice.

Finishing Touches –
1. Paint a “flight trail” of polka dots from each butterfly.
2. Sign your name if desired and allow drying.
3. When dry, apply a couple coats of either waterbase brush-on varnish or spray finish to seal and protect your artwork.
