This is a cool and easy project you can make using only a plywood board, a little paint and scissors.
You can substitute plywood with white canvas.
Canvas maybe even easier to use because you can buy stretched with size you like.
Acrylic paint is the easiest to work with and they available from any art supply store. You can use one color or come up with different color patters.
It’s all about your creativity. Here is detailed step for the project:

This is a great way to involve your children with this project and have a quality time together.

  1. Cut plywood to desired size (one piece can be cut into four 12-in x12-in squares) or use canvas.

  1. Take a photo of your model’s profile against a lightly colored background and print in the size you would like.

  2. Cut out the silhouette, tape it to the plywood, and trace around it with a pencil.

  3. Paint carefully around the outline on the outside of the profile.  High gloss paint is good choice or acrylic if you use canvas.
