Challenge #2 - Starburst

Starburst pages can be very eye-catching, and there's so much you can do with this type of composition.
Get your inspiration from Pinterest for starburst drawings, there are LOADS. And watch this amazing tutorial from www.daisyyellowart.com. It is this simple!
The tutorial from Daisy Yellow is obviously an example. Your starburst can be as big or as small as you want it to be; it can be on the whole page or just an element on your page (it is easier if it's big though). You can use collage, paints, pencils, markers, or a mixture. Your call.
Please note that if you want to paint over your starburst after it's drawn like on the video, use a waterproof marker/pen or it will smudge like hell! Been there! Unviable Eye Fine waterproof/fade proof or Uni Pin fine line from Mitsubishi Pencil Co Ltd are my faves and can be found in WHSmith, or use a permanent marker pen like Sharpie (you will need an extra fine or fine).
Have fun and don't forget to share your art on our Facebook page at www.facebook.com/thecreativechallenges50
