SPOOKY SCARECROW

Using a fine brush, create the straw by drawing short, spiky lines across the left side of the forehead and left side of the jaw using Classic Bright Yellow and Classic Light Brown. Apply a black circle in the middle of each cheek using Classic Black (use the cap of a glue stick to apply the black paint to recreate a ‘button’ shape). Using Classic Light Brown, draw more straw strokes over the yellow for depth.

With a fine brush and Classic Dark Brown, gently add a very fine patchwork of lines around the straw and smudge slightly with your finger. Using Classic Light Grey, Classic White and Classic Bright Yellow, and a fine brush, draw on the button detail over the black circles, with a slightly thicker line across the tip of the button for reflection. With a fine brush, Classic Black and Classic Grey gently add a very fine patchwork of lines around the straw and smudge slightly with your finger.

Draw in the lips with Classic Black, continuing the smile line outwards with a fine brush and adding a couple of stitches.
