3) Pour a small portion of the dark green paint into your painting dish ( here I have used a spare paper plate).
4) Paint the outside of the line green, taking care not to cross the line ( it is also okay if it does cross the line a bit here and there, the painting would look natural and nice).
5)Next, take a bit of the light green paint. Paint a thin strip, almost 1/2- inch wide, all around, next to the dark green strip.
