For the actual tree and branches, you can try one of two things. 1) You can either make a rough sketch and paint over it if you feel comfortable enough with your skills or 2) you could put up an outline using blue painters tape and paint it. Then after removing the blue painters tape, go back and add some roundness to the tree and branches. Oh, and Portia's idea of painting it on smooth ply wood is a good/cheap idea.<br />Well, that's what I would do.

And I painted it and collages it all I wanted. After I left high school my parents took it down and it was as good as new!Portiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09007286245016389383noreply@blogger.com
