Here’s the rubric for this artwork. Review Level 4.
Steps:
8) Neatly begin painting your background. Follow painting steps.
9) Paint skin colors. You skin colors can reflect your mood, like green= jealousy, it doesn’t have to be realistic.
If you want to use realistic skin colors: you can either mix paint or use paint from the bottles. If you mix skin colors, you must finish it today. Today is the only mixing day.
