 Painting of two sisters sharing their love with red poppies. From the collection of the Colonial People of North Carolina.

Instructions:

1. Start by drawing the sisters and landscape.
2. Give a soft coat of acrylic gold to the canvas. Gold is very good for under-painting, it creates a worm color that once you put the oils or acrylics in the top, they look brighter.
3. Next paint landscape, starting with the sky, grass, house, trees and finally red poppies. You can do it with oil paintings or acrylics.
4. Sign your work of art.

Supply:
Acrylics: There are many brands of acrylic paintings that I have tested but the one that I like the most is: SOHO, Urban Artistic Acrylic: Excellent paintings, sold at more reasonable price by Jerry’s Arterama. 3060 Wake Forest Road, Raleigh, NC 27609. (919) 876-6610.
Oil Paintings: You can buy them at Michael’s, ACMoore, but again the most affordable ones are at Jerry’s Arterama and their brand is LUKAS.
