Step 1: Background painting

-     Choose your colours (we used Phthalo Blue, Turquoise, Naples Yellow, Phthalo Green, Violet, Magenta, and Pink)

-     Use the Abstract Expression Brush to blend your colours

-     Keep the edges darker and the centre lighter to create a glowing effect

-     Let the background dry

Step 2: Charcoal lines

-     Lightly draw curved horizontal lines across the canvas with a white charcoal pencil

-     Paint over the lines using Naples Yellow to create a base grid for the tiles

Step 3: Painting disco ball

-     Use a small flat brush to dab in colour between the lines

-     Mix colours on the brush as you go to create a reflective look

-     Use darker colours (like violet, phthalo blue, phthalo green) near the edges

-     Use lighter colours (like yellow, pink, turquoise) in the centre

-     Keep the brush strokes small near the edges and larger near the middle

-     Follow the curve of the ball with your dabs

Step 4: Linework painting

-     Add vertical lines between the tiles using phthalo blue

-     Touch up the horizontal lines if needed

-     Let some of the Naples Yellow show through for extra dimension

Step 5: Acrylic painting highlights

-     Use white paint to add bright reflections in the centre of some of the tiles

-     Add small dots of white around the disco ball to suggest sparkle

Step 6: Varnish painting

-     Once dry, pour Gloss Acrylic Varnish onto the canvas

-     Spread evenly with a flat Taklon brush or the Abstract Expression Brush

-     Apply a generous coat for a glossy finish

All finished! Display your handmade disco ball wherever you need groovy vibes.
