Caution this will make you hungry! Step 1: Using a pencil, sketch out your design on Watercolor paper .

Step 2: Using clean water, get the inside of the bowl wet first and then apply your beef Pho broth colors. (Yellow ochre and Raw Sienna)

Step 3: Now, use white Acrylic paint for the Vermicelli Pho noodles. Add as much as you want but save room for the meat and onions.

Step 4: It is time to add on the Beef Brisket and Rare steak. (ok, now I’m getting hungry)

Step 5: With a nice dark green, I add the chopped green onions and the larger piece of green onion. I also start to add more noodles with white Paint Marker (because my stomach is growling at this point)

Step 6: Back to using water color, add the shading to the bowl itself by wetting the bowl with clean water, then add black/grey. Here, you can also start to decorate the bowl with whatever design you like.

Step 7: Using a black marker, write your Valentine message! (at this point, I’m too hungry to laugh)
