It’s easy to create your very own pet portrait using a few Resene testpots.

Resene kids art with Mark Rayner - Project 66

Difficulty level: Moderate

You will need: Oval shaped piece of MDF, Paintbrushes, Resene Art Action Quick Dry waterborne primer undercoat, Resene Testpots of Resene Alabaster, Resene Flash Point, Resene Happy Hour, Resene Nero and Resene Subzero

Top tip: If you don’t have any MDF just cut an oval shape from a piece of heavy cardboard instead.

Here's another idea: This pretty pony picture was painted with Resene Alabaster, Resene Get Reddy, Resene Hopbush, Resene Nero and Resene Shocking.
