Optional: Divide Pumpkin Spaces

Depending on the size of the drawing, you can also add an extra line to each shape. This will give kids a small space to put their black-and-white designs.

Step 3: Fill Your Shapes

Add patterns, designs, and more to the shapes. Repeating lines and patterns is a great way to start.

Tips

  • When creating black and white doodles, consider coloring in some fo the negative space.
  • You can create balance by repeating a similar pattern or design in a different spot.
  • We like using 1-2 colors of watercolor paint in the background to add a little color and fun to these drawings.
