"How you doing? Just made your stencil. Just got a simple circle in it. I'm going to show you how to make a basketball with it. You got your shirt ready, get your orange out. This is a very simple stencil, we'll get more into adhesive and making it, because you know you can't just leave it up there and hold it. Later on you won't be able to do that. This here, just find a place, somewhere on the shirt. Your stencil, some orange. You can fill it in all the way, but it doesn't look as dramatic. I like to leave a little bit in the middle. Pull your stencil off. You have a nice orange ball. If you don't have enough space around your stencil like this, sometimes you'll get a little blow by like that. That's not good. Grab another color, yellow. Fill in that white spot. Now it looks a little more dramatic. This is where some artistic skill comes into play. Just like before, hand eye coordination. Draw a circle around it. Somewhere in the middle of it draw an arc, draw another arc that way, arc, arc, little bit of a shadow. Now you've got a basketball. How's that?"
