The night sky

Holly • 11 • Limerick


I used toilet paper tubes, tin foil, cardboard, masking tape and paint. I Cut off a Quarter of the toilet paper Tube in length. I taped on the tube in a diagonal Position to the cardboard. I created the legs, head and tail of the Fox and the mouse from Tinfoil. I covered the tinfoil with masking tape so the paint would Stick and taped the pieces on to the cardboard. I painted everything in a white base coat. I painted the fox with layers of orange, rusty orange and yellow until I was happy with the colour. I left the tail and the muzzle of the fox White. I blended brown for the Fox's feet. I painted the background black and then I blended Blue, green, purple and grey for the night sky and I speckled green paint on the bottom for grass. I painted the mouse a light brown. I used white and pink poscas for the stars, moon and the mouses tail.
