Shading Tips: Fig. 1 The berries are stenciled with Rich Red
leaving a vibrant white high light. The berry is then shaded
with black! Sounds unlikely but it looks great. The leaves
are stenciled with Pilgrim Green then shaded with black.
Erase the veins. Fig. 2 is the same stencil using Concord Blue
for the berries, leave a white highlight, shade with black.
The berries of Fig. 3 are stenciled with Savannah Peach leaving
a white highlight and shaded with Barn Red. The leaves are Pilgrim
Green shaded with Walnut Brown.

Add color by removing it! Jeannie uses a Pentel "Clic"
eraser to erase the stencil paint for leaf veins. This works
best while the paint is still damp, if it has dried you will
need an ink eraser. (Sorry - it doesn't work with acrylic
paint.)
Take a peek at ournew Video and see inside Stencil Ease to see how custom stencils are made. See spray painting stencils along with other outdoor and indoor stencil applications.
