Orange pottery vases, a jug and two bowls stand on a white cloth. They are painted with blue triangles, arches and gold dots. A green ball, a light purple cube and a gold cone sit beside them. It's a good next step once you've painted a few pictures. Your paint stays inside the lines, so each blue triangle stays neat.

How to paint it

  1. Choose Watercolour for a soft look or Oil for a bolder one. Make the brush big and paint the wall cream. Add the soft shadows on it with Darker.
  2. Paint the table light brown and the cloth cream. Add the shade in the cloth folds with Darker.
  3. Paint the vases and jug orange, and their bands and the bowls cream. Add the shade on their right sides with Darker.
  4. Paint the triangles and arches blue and the dots gold. Paint the ball green, the cube light purple and the cone gold. Shade the right side of each shape with Darker.
  5. Paint the leaves green and add their shade with Darker. Draw the thin stems with the Pencil in brown.
