Step One
Using a head of corn as a stamp, begin printing clusters of corn around the jug using green and yellow paints as the transfer medium.
Step Two
Do the same, but this time use a leaf from the oak branches. transfer green paint onto the base of the corn and build up the design.
Step Three
Using a small paint brush and some yellow paint, add some steams to the corn heads. This can be done using a steam from the corn as a stamp, but using a paint brush will provide you with more control.
Step Four
With a paint brush, add some wisps of grass around the green leaf prints for more texture.
Step Five
Add some strokes of white paint to the corn for definition.
Finally, add a rustic meadow arrangement consisting of grass, buttercups and corn.
