How to Draw a Star on Paint
Stars are among the most common decorative accents. Whether you're decorating something as large as a painted bedroom wall or as small as painted canvas, the method to drawing a star is the same. Determine where you want to draw your stars, how big and how many before you tackle this project. Once you're ready, get out your drawing tools and start drawing stars on paint.

Choose where you want to draw your star. Mark the spot that would be the center with a pencil.

Draw a cross lightly across the circle. From the top part of the cross, mark a light line about 72 degrees away from it using your protractor. Divide the rest of the circle this way until you have five 72-degree sections.

Connect the dots, starting with the bottom left. Connect it to the top center, then draw a line back down to the bottom right. From there, connect that with the upper left section, and then straight across to the upper right. This will create your star. Erase any extra lines.

5
Trace your star in heavier or colored pencil, permanent marker or paint. This will ensure your star will be easily seen on the paint on which you drew it.
