DIY Hummingbird Painting on Canvas


Decorating a child's room does take a lot of planning and effort. However, having a theme for decorating the room does make it easier. If your child likes hummingbirds, then you might want to try making a hummingbird painting. Painting on canvas makes a quick personalized painting for their bedroom. Use their favorite colors and they will enjoy their picture framed canvases. 

They can paint their hummingbird using a stencil or by hand. Nonetheless, after they are done painting, you can add Mod Podge or paint spray sealant. Let it air dry. Then display the painting on a pedestal or a frame. Here are the instructions for this do-it-yourself hummingbird painting. 




Materials:


5 × 7 canvas 

Acrylic paint 

Assorted sizes of Paintbrushes

Q Tips 

Paper towels, magazines, or old cloths

Picture Display Pedestal or a frame 

Hummingbird stencil (optional)

Paper plate or reusable plate 


Instructions:


Place paper towels, old magazines, or a cloth to protect your counter or table. However, if you do get paint on the table, you can wash it off with soap and water. Begin painting the canvas with one color. Next, draw and paint the hummingbird using a stencil or without a stencil. Use a reusable plate or a paper plate to squeeze tiny amounts of paint so you can dip the paintbrush.


 


Continue adding a flower and the clouds to the painting. You might need a q tip to make the eyes and a little bit of texture for painting the bird on canvas. Add multiple colors to paint the flower and to paint the hummingbird. Nonetheless, metallic acrylic paint was used to paint the head and feathers of the hummingbird. Have fun painting your hummingbird on canvas. 


To protect the paint use Mod Podge or paint spray sealant. Also, make sure that the canvas fits in a picture frame. Another way is by displaying your painted canvas on a picture pedestal. It can be displayed on a dresser table or end table with a lamp. Last, make sure you can see the painted canvases in the room.
