The highlighting colour should be darker than the painted flower colour eg red or dark orange. 5 Use same crayon colour to shade around petals and to highlight centre of each flower. 6 Use black crayon to draw stamen coming out from the centre of each flower. 7 Use an old paint brush lightly dabbed into white paint and tap over the centre to form pollen. 8 Repeat this with purple or red paint to add more dimension to flower. 9 When dry, cut out each flower and paste onto background with very slight overlapping.
