Wall decor is especially popular nowadays, because you can cover the wall with ordinary painted wallpaper, and make the most unusual drawing. However, the question often rests on the inability of a person to draw, and then any attempt turns into something unimaginable and the wallpaper has to be repainted. Fortunately, today's needlewomen have found an approach to this problem.
The simplest drawing is always - flowers, if they are also "empty", then the whole process becomes much easier. Therefore, you can draw a very summer, bright and sophisticated dandelion on the wall. The beauty of this flower on the wall is not only in its elegance, but also in the ability to additionally decorate the flower. That is, you can just draw a dandelion, or you can draw a dandelion and its fluff around the flower. In general, it's all about fantasy.
Dandelion's style load can also be different. Do you miss summer and brightness? Use bright juicy colors, if you want something depressing or poetic, then you need pastel languid and dark shades.
What do you need to paint on the wall?
1. The wall should already be covered with plain wallpaper.
2. Masking tape.
3. Paint, it is advisable to take something more serious than watercolors, but if the choice is not great, then on a temporary basis you can even take gouache. Although later you will still need to cover the picture with acrylic or oil paints, so take care of this in advance.
4. A thin brush for drawing details. Do not forget that the details are large in one way or another, which means that the brush should be medium in size and with a thin tip, it is better to take a set so that you can use the right brush where you think is necessary, and not suffer with one.
5. A sponge for washing dishes.
6. Idea and desire to paint on wallpaper.
How to draw?
In order to draw a beautiful flower, you must first outline the stem line. Since the flower on this stem will be voluminous, you need to bring the stem to about the middle of the wall, you can lower it, you cannot higher. In order for the stem to turn out to be even, its contours need to be glued with tape, and already in the middle of it, calmly decorate the future stem.
Then you need to draw the dandelion core. To do this, you need to draw an oval that is stretched to the sides, and to demonstrate some stamens, draw several lines on the sides of the core.
Now you need to start drawing the fluffy petals. To do this, you need to take a sponge and blot a corner of it in the paint. Then, with an angle towards the core, gently apply the sponge to the wall. To make the airy threads in the petals even more airy, you can pull them out to the sides with a brush.
The dandelion should have a fairly voluminous beanie, then it will not look strange.
The heroes of the story moved to a new apartment and decided to decorate the walls. After analyzing all the possible options (or drawing a picture using stencils), we came to the conclusion that creating coziness in an apartment with bare walls is an expensive pleasure.
An idea came to my mind - to make drawings on the walls with my own hands. The choice fell on dandelions.
Having no art education, but doing everything neatly and from the heart, the guys got a wonderful dandelion on the wall. Dandelion is very airy, it gives comfort and a warm reminder of summer.
A bonus for the owners of the apartment was the praise from the guests, as well as a sense of pride for the work done.
And now, in order, as they did the drawing of a dandelion on the wall
The following tools were used for the work:
1. Paint
2. Masking tape
3. Fine brush
4. Foam sponge (you can take a sponge for washing dishes)
When all the necessary tools and materials for work are ready, you need to decide on the place and size for the future drawing of the dandelion. In our case, the dandelion divided two zones in the kitchen - working and dining.
Gluing the masking tape vertically, we create the outline of the future dandelion stem. The distance between the two stripes is the thickness of the stem. At the top of the "stem", we also create a round dandelion head with the help of scotch tape.
After creating the main outline, you can start painting. The paint is best applied with a sponge. Gently blotting the surface of the wall, inside the selected path, we get a uniform texture without brush strokes.
After painting the stem and head of the dandelion, the molar tape can be removed.
The next step is to draw the umbrella seeds for the dandelion.
To draw again, use a sponge. Only now you need to moisten only one edge of the sponge with paint. Light imprints of the corner of the sponge are applied along the diameter of the future flower. At first, you can only make basting of air umbrellas, and then "fluff" them. The degree of "fluffiness" of the dandelion cap you choose independently, based on your taste.
To get greater transparency and airiness of the dandelion, the strokes were applied in this way:
At the edge there are frequent and dense strokes.
To the core - the density of smears decreases.
After such manipulations with the sponge on the wall, you can already recognize the dandelion, but that's not all.
Now, using a thin brush, you need to draw some details - leaves at the stalk, seeds on the dandelion head.
Flying umbrella seeds were also added to the wall.

How to prepare a wall for painting?
Have you chosen the centerpiece for your masterpiece? Let's figure out how to prepare a wall for painting. First, clean the surface of any imperfections and old coating. Degrease a smooth wall with acetone, or a special primer, and then level it with putty or plaster. The leveled area is primed to enhance the adhesion between the wall and the paint, and paint with the "background" color you like.
Wall paints
The wall is ready, the head is full of ideas, which means it's time to pick up paints for painting the walls. Among all the variety of modern choices, professional artists prefer acrylic water-dispersed paints for painting walls. Usually they are sold in sets, but more often everyone buys a palette of yellow, green and brown, since their mixing results in all natural shades. Do not forget about white paint - it allows you to create all the necessary color transitions and mask mistakes in work.
Wall painting with acrylic is carried out with brushes with artificial bristles or foam rubber. The width of both depends on the desired width of the stroke.
Wall painting technique
The wall painting technique depends on the paint you are working with. Choosing acrylic, you can create different paint effects by diluting it with water: a strong dilution will make the acrylic more transparent, which is usually found in watercolors, and thick and undiluted acrylic will give a gouache texture. You can draw by hand or using a stencil. The technology of painting walls also depends on the paint and the desired effect: paint is applied to a wet wall for greater absorption, as is done in the technology of "fresco", but more often they use hand or stencil painting on a dry surface.
