now that your snowman has been basecoated in tan/off white we will do some smooshing..yet smooching

do you all have clear saran wrap

photo 1: tear off a large piece and crumble it

if you do not have saran wrap or the likes then cut up a white garbage bag, put your grocery items in..it will also work for you

photo 2: meat trays or stero plates work well for your paints

put white paint on a tray, if it's looks thick add just a few drops of water to it..

Photo 3: LIGHTLY pounce color onto the snowman, remember the sides and back.

* you have to let the front and the sides dry before you attempt the back
- now this is only if you've decided to paint the back other than black..
- if you've decided to do the back in black I'd wait till all the painting in the
front has been done

Photo 4: if you've pounced (dabbing lightly) the white and you see a tad of tan/off white
through your color then it's perfect..if you feel you've gone too far and its solid
then get some base color and lightly pounce it on very/very lightly
