Pineapple Rock Painting

Step-by-Step Instructions

1. Prepare and base coat

   Wash and dry the rock. A tall, slightly oval rock is perfect for a pineapple body. Paint the bottom two-thirds yellow. Let dry.

2. Add the diamond pattern

   Using golden brown paint and a fine brush, paint a crosshatch diamond pattern across the yellow body - diagonal lines in both directions to create the pineapple skin texture.

3. Paint the crown leaves

   On the upper third of the rock, paint overlapping spiky green leaves extending upward - the pineapple crown. Use dark and light green for depth.

4. Add highlights

   Add small bright yellow or white highlight dots within the diamond cells for a shiny, textured look.

5. Seal and finish

   Let everything dry. Apply clear sealant spray for protection and a finishing shine.

6. Add RoxGeo Code

   On the bottom or back of your rock, write ROXGEO.COM followed by a slash and your rock’s unique code (e.g. ROXGEO.COM/ABC123). This lets the finder go directly to your rock’s profile page and log their discovery. If the rock is too small for the full address, write #ROX followed by the code without spaces (e.g. #ROXABC123) — it’s short, easy to search on Google, and leads straight to your rock’s journey page. Use a fine-tip permanent marker or acrylic paint pen, and seal it with clear varnish so the code stays readable through rain, sun, and adventure.
