Here is a simple design. You can easily paint a very quick version like the one on the right, using only three colors, or if you have a little time, you can add the outline and highlights to give it more detail. Don’t forget glitter. Glitter never looks quite as good in person than it does in photos, so I usually leave it out in a tutorial so you can see the actual design. However, I use it a lot in the field because people really seem to like it as the final touch!
