FAQ:
Q: What kind of paint do you use?
A: This was acrylic craft paint

This easy pumpkin painting idea is perfect for beginners learning how to paint with acrylic craft paint on canvas. It also makes a great painting for paint parties at home! Don't forget a hair dryer helps to dry the paint in between layers. Painting the pumpkin white first as a base layer is important because it will make the color you choose really stand stand out! You will learn how to paint simple highlights and shading on the pumpkin to make them look more realistic in this tutorial as well. My favorite fan brush leaf technique is great for painting easy pumpkin leaves, but you could always add more realistic pumpkin leaves if you wish.
