Steps 21-22
21. Spray the entire Blown Away screen sculpture with black spray paint. Keep the spray about 6 inches away from the screen to prevent the holes from filling up with paint. Be sure to spray the wire, too. Check to see if any holes in the face or neck have filled in, if so, use two sponges, one in back and one in front to dab away the paint. Tip: Work in a well-ventilated area and cover the work surface with newspaper.

22. Spray sections of the hair with blue spray paint to add highlights.
