It is only optional to outline it with sharpie. You can do it for demo purposes only. You might want to practice drawing on a separate sheet of paper if you’re struggling with the drawing. If you’re transferring, just print out the unicorn PDF and use graphite paper!
In the course of painting, you can change the design of the snout at the end of the process pictures. So, the drawing looks slightly different in the following pictures but the instructions are exactly the same.

 

 

 

You can paint hair with one color you like. However, you can add some light colors to make more various for the hair. Then you will paint the background with a small flat brush. You can use bimini blue (bright aqua green) and white, and dip your brush in both colors to get an inconsistent color. Please paint spirals in the background with a small round brush and parrot blue (light blue permanent).
You can use blue shading color for head as well. When you shade with the blue, blend it in with the white by applying both white and blue to the canvas. You can add some shadow areas with white mixed with parrot blue (light blue permanent). You will blend it in white the white but you must remember that you use a little, not much blue. Then you will paint the eye and nostril black with a small round brush.
You can use a small round to brush, paint each stroke of hair separately, following the lines of the curves you drew. You will go in this order: fuchsia, orange, yellow, green, bimini blue, purple iris. Slightly overlap colors to allow them to blend together. You can go back and blend the colors some more by using a smaller round brush and really blend the colors to get a rainbow ombre effect in the hair!

 

 

 

 

 

You will use a small round brush and black to outline some areas of the unicorn to make them stand out. Please don’t outline everything, just a little here and there.

 

 

 

 

You will paint the horn gold or use a gold sharpie to color it in. If you want to get extra crafty here, add some gold glitter! You can outline ovals on the horn black and add some white splatter paint over areas of the hair and horn with a toothbrush. This actually makes it looks like glitter but it’s paint! Also notice that I added more hair! Just over lap some of the strands to achieve this effect. Use a small round brush to get into really find details with the hair!
