Printed Trees

Materials:

Skeleton Leaves
Indian Ink
School Colours Paint by Zart
Foam Roller
Cartridge Paper A3

How to make Printed Trees:

  1. Use a twig/stick dipped into black ink to draw the trunk and branches of a tree on a sheet of Cartridge Paper. Set aside to dry.
  2. Roll or brush paint on to a Skeleton Leaf and press the wet side down on to the branches of the drawn tree. Press with a hard roller or back of a spoon and peel off the leaf to reveal the print.
  3. Repeat this step until your tree is covered in leaves.
