Spirit Rock Painting and Design Tips
● The best paint to use is spray paint. Premium spray paint works best (Rustoleum, etc.) vs. a generic store brand. You will probably need 2-3 cans for a good base coat and additional paint for your design. The quantity needed will depend upon the color you are using, the color already painted on the rock, and weather conditions. Remember, latex paint or paint that is rolled on will take longer to dry.
● Once you have the base coat done, use chalk to sketch out your design. Try to do large shapes so that it’s easy to see from the road and so that you can use spray paint for most of it.
● Spray paint your large areas. If you mess up, use your base coat color to fix the mistake.
● For more detailed areas, use a can/tube of paint and a paintbrush. While outdoor latex is best, regular artists' acrylic seems to work well too (even in rain).
● Make sure to bring paper towels to wipe any drips
● Bring a cup of water if you are using a paintbrush.
● Wearing a mask will help protect you from the fumes.
● Wearing rubber gloves will help keep your hands clean.
● Have fun and use the hashtag #SRESpiritRock and/or email us at sugarridgepto@gmail.com so that we can see all your designs.
