Painting on stones - Morocco on marble
Do you also have a few "souvenirs" from your last holiday that need a little colour? With our Lumocolor Paint markers, draw small snapshots of your holiday and create momentos on any natural treasures you might have collected along the way. So, find a large pebble, let your creativity run wild and draw a radiant, white doorway that opens to a view of a wide desert landscape. Of course, this also works on driftwood or large shells. Have fun making your holiday memories!

Step-by-step instructions
Grab a pencil and draw the door arch and plants with a fine line.
Activate the Lumocolor Paint Markers by shaking them with the cap closed and then pumping 3-4 times. Wait until the tip is filled with ink. Then start colouring in your design. Start with the yellow and orange dunes in the background.
The floor of the Mediterranean house is washed in light blue. Make sure to let the individual shapes dry to stop the different inks from running into each other.
Now colour in the white wall. Don't fill in the spots in front of any plants or small pictures. The surface of the large stone may be uneven and rough in some places, but the markers cover very well and you can also pump additional paint directly onto the stone to fill small holes.
Next, colour in the plants in the foreground. First of all, colour in the pot in red and beige and then the shrub in dark green. To the right of the door arch, repeat the colours to paint a small picture on the wall.
To get more colour nuances, you can mix the ink of the paint markers. To do this, pump a little light green and dark green onto a non-absorbent surface (e.g. foil or a saucer) and mix together using the brush. Finally, you can use the brush to paint fine leaf veins or interesting light reflections.
