Flower Vase - Dot painting

Flower Vase dot painting, a still life on canvas

A vase of flowers on a plain surface, glass below and blooms above. Two very different materials in one frame are what make a still life worth dotting.

Starting this dot painting takes seconds, and stopping takes even less, because the design is already printed on the canvas.

What is in the dot painting kit

Everything you need comes in one box:

• Printed canvas: sturdy, with the vase clearly outlined.
• Guide: one page of instructions.
• Double-tip markers:
  • 1.0 mm tip: for the blooms and the table.
  • 0.5 mm tip: for the glass edges and the stems in the water.

Art above a sideboard

A still life is the safest thing to hang in a dining room, and this one has the advantage of having been made at your own table.

Hand it over wrapped as a present, or sit beside a youngster and split the vase: stems for them, blooms for you. A dot art painting kit with everything included.

Glass with almost no ink

Leave the vase mostly empty and mark only the rim, the base and the waterline. Anything more and it stops looking transparent.

From a distance the bouquet reads clearly; step closer and you notice how tightly packed dots build depth in the glass.
