Bee Canvas Art

How to Make

  1. Cut a tall semi circle shape, slightly smaller than the size of the canvas, out of a piece of bubble wrap.
  2. Mix up a shade of orange paint and cover the bumpy side of the bubble wrap with this paint using a paintbrush.
  3. Print the bubble wrap beehive onto the middle of the mini canvas, then carefully peel it away.
  4. Once the beehive has dried, paint yellow bees around it, and one or two over the top of it. Leave to dry.
  5. Use a black pen to outline the bees and to draw on their stripes. Then add wings and eyes to the bees.
  6. Mix up a dark orange shade of paint and draw a semi circle at the bottom of the beehive.
