I am partial to recessive genes. These genes are usually viewed as a symbol of luck, like having red hair or an extra leaf on on a plant, such as a 4 leaf clover. Both traits work well in decorating for St. Patrick’s Day. Here is a tutorial on how to create simple shamrock art. Sometimes when you over decorate for St. Patrick’s Day and similar holidays it can be a little obnoxious. Keep it simple and pretty and embrace the lucky four leaf clover.
Here is how I started…
I used a canvas board and primed it with white house paint.
I cut out a heart from card stock and located a pencil.
I placed the heart on the canvas and traced the heart with the pencil. I arranged the heart shapes to give an impression of a 4 leaf clover pattern.
With green acrylic paint I painted the hearts.
Once the paint was dry I used my gold metallic sharpie and drew little “x’s” all over one clover.
The finished piece is clean, simple and pretty.

Enjoy your weekend!
I love the simplicity of the artwork. I agree too many decorations for St Patty’s and similar holidays can be aggravating.
Love this! The perfect, subtle St. Paddy’s Day touch. Thanks so much for linking up at The Makers.
Lovely…and it would make a fun t-shirt stencil craft for the kiddos, too.
Thanks Andi!
