Adhere with matte gel medium and seal over the top of each piece with a thin layer of gel medium. Let dry completely.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eUse watered-down gesso to whitewash the entire canvas, leaving plenty of paint strokes and allowing the patterns of the papers underneath to peek through.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMix white gesso with a touch of umber to make off-white and stencil doilies in each corner.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eDraw a pumpkin on a coordinating piece of paper. Use plenty of scribbles and lines to get the general shape of the pumpkin. Cut out, paint with a thin layer of gesso, and adhere to the center of the canvas with gel medium.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eFor each paint color in the next steps, mix with plenty of white and umber to make them more muted and pale. The paints should be almost pastels when the mixing is finished. This will allow you to layer many colors to create a truly grungy effect.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003ePaint entire pumpkin with the lightest orange possible. Layer bold streaks of a darker orange. Add some streaks of white and blend into the orange to give the impression of light cast upon the pumpkin.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAdd some green and brown spots sparingly to the pumpkin. Blend the paint colors until you are satisfied, but leave the brush strokes and streaks visible. There is beauty in the imperfection!\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eAllow entire canvas to dry completely.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOutline all of the details of the pumpkin with graphite pencil. Use scribbles and random lines to add to the grunge of the overall piece.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eOutline entire pumpkin with Stabilo All Marking Pencil. Blend with water, then add another layer of dry pencil to the top. Repeat this process until desired effect is achieved.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eScribble along the edges of the canvas with Stabilo pencil. Wet with a brush, then dab away the water with a paper towel to create a mottled, distressed edge.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eMusic: \"Little Tomcat (Instrumental Version)\"\u003cbr\u003eby Josh Woodward\u003cbr\u003eFrom the Free Music Archive\u003cbr\u003eCC by creativecommons.org\/licenses\/by\/3.0\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Free Projects","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45452537823383,"sku":"PROJ-1222","price":0.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0659\/5546\/3319\/files\/PROJ-1222__26200.1558411240.1280.1280.jpg?v=1746793970","url":"https:\/\/stampington.live\/products\/scribbly-pumpkin-canvas-video","provider":"Stampington \u0026 Company","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
