DO IT - Dakota Frazier

Enter Galactic
(I'm no professional, these are starter instructions from an amateur)

I. Select a planet size (stencil)
II. Select a color scheme; i.e. 3 different colors
III. Select a planet type (ringed, earth-like, rocky moon/mars, swirly planet)
IV. Lightly spray the paint on your paper or board, avoid creating pools of paint, layering your scheme; i.e. red, yellow with green stripes.
V. Create your planet tetexture (swirls, rocky, striped) using different materials, i.e. plastic bag, your hand, crumpled magazine page.
VI. Lightly spray black on one side of the planet in the shape of a thin crescent moon.
VII. Take your planet stencil and cover your entire planet, avoid sliding the stencil by weighing it down with your hand or a stone.
VIII. Proceed by spraying the area around the stencil black. Then choose a small section of the stencil to spray white on, maybe like a 3rd.
IX. Carefully remove stencil and enjoy!
P.s. If planet does not come out how you imagined don't worry, everything takes practice!
