3. Get the Floral Inspiration: welcome to this class looking for respirations. I think nature is the most britches off the inspirations sources that we have. So go to nature and look at the beautiful representations off beauty, many flowers, many or their botanicals. A leaves you can find in nature after seeing so many beautiful flowers and I got inspired and and then I did this piece. You seem my memories about those flowers and leaves and integrating them with the letters. You can also find prints and see a flower floor prince and get inspiration from there or from some pieces off ceramic like this one. This cut to and for text DeLeon a tech steel. You can see those beautiful for a prince into text eels and get inspiration. You can do almost the same, or you can try to mix our create your own type off leaves or flowers. The idea here is to get creative and letter. Inspiration comes from what you see and then transforming into things that you will like. You can also use stamps and they they many varieties to come find them every wearing in every a shop where they find or in Internet. These are the ideas that we were going to be working with in this class blame. It's very easy. I will guide you through the whole process. Step by step so you can do will be able to do the same the signs or create your own at the science with your own ideas and your own creativity and in intuition. But mostly we're, but we're going to be working in 30 difference. The lettering, floral and botanicals lettering, and I think you will love it. I recommend you to start thinking about the colors to want to use for your flowers and your leaves and Mary thinking about the type of flower Do you want to paint because when you get to work your hand at work, it will be easier for do to create your masterpiece and be happy with that. I also have some ideas for you. Toe. Make your work easier and injectable. This is a template with letters and numbers and some signs, and you can use them toe trace your laters, our lightning, the letters I am on the paper so you can work with the floors in in botanicas much easier and much concentrated on that and not too much on the letter inform, especially if you are not that a trained in hand lettering on on constructing your own letters did we make you were really easy. This is a very easy told to use, and it is really helpful if you don't have the 10 place, they're very cheap also. But if you don't have them, you can trace your own lettering with your own brush pants or markers or whatever you have at home. Or you can print the letters off the worst and then trace them to the paper to the final paper where you are working your final piece. I will show you my very nice trick to transfer the letters in the floors, and I will show you then in the next video. But I have here some ideas off floors. This is a composition I did, and these flowers. I boat then in XY, and I used them. Betty Okay, often Toby. Eight different backgrounds on floors for my work. This is our fourth East radio, and I will see during the next media where we're going to design or back around floral for or lettering piece see during the next media
4. Designing Floral Background : welcome to this class in this class we're going to design or back ground for a holiday in peace. And here I have all the pieces I will use a step by step. I will show you how to create your own background using inspiration from florals I have at heart for this part off the creation I will am cut my paper trump for or my transparent paper on the same size off my watercolor paper. And I will need a cut. A paper cutter, a ruler n a fine line. So in this case, I will cut the transfer paper all hats because the normal size is a for so let's do this. You can use whatever size do you like for the paper. I let that did your decision to your own choice and you can then adopt the design to the size off your own paper After you have had your a paper cut order paper that you would be used. I m in this case, I will be using in the floors from Etc. That I bow some years ago and I will pick up some off them and then create my own. The sign with those later, I will fix my transferred paper. My my transporting paper on this, um, paperboard, where the floor art and then I will just it trace the flower issues in this case is this is the 1st 1 I will with racing without a day inside lines Joseph the outlines because a we are going to be painting these flowers with other colors and I don't need the the centerpiece of the other lines that are inside the every every pedal off this flower you can use as many flowers to like just keep in mind that there should be some balance. So harmony in the creation I am picking to flowers one big one small and then another one iss Mourners in any branch. So my pieces really imbalanced in the hole composition Do you will see him when you are creating your own background and that you will be seen Where do you need more flowers or or more? A botanicals or more leaves or more little dots. You will see the the need for creating them. This is the a smaller for lower their that I choose and they're seeing me not, but they are not the same. And and it really gives the contrast The prefer harmony for the composition that I want to create. To trace this flower. I am using my fine liner, C 0.5. It gives a nice line so I can see then very well and I can then copy them all trump for the transfer them toe the paper. I will tell you later how we can transfer these very easy and very quick. But this is this is a work to do with patients and slowly because it takes time to drum for those lines. Now I will place my older Florence that I have here. These are a I think these are plum or sakura or cherry blossoms. I bought this paper in Japan so it's very pretty And then I want just the flowers and the our lines off those a smaller a flowers here in the center off the two other flowers that looked more like a cactuses And yeah, I think the escape toe my piece Ah, already nice contrast in a very nice violence. I interesting here also a branch longer that it looks in the paper because I noticed that it will give more harmony toe my piece, and I will continue to trace those little for hours. So my floral back around looks very complete. And I'm beautiful when I paint them with the weather quarters a second. See, I am doing this work on really time because I want you to see how much a time this takes toe dough and that you need really to be able to have the time to this order. Gonna do it on different times for different days if you like. But this type of work tracing and transferring really takes a hell of a lot off Stein to do . And I and we need as quickly as I can so you can do you don't get bored with those line, but you can go. It would meet at the same time, and then we're working together. That is the whole point off these classes and the most beautiful part off working online or learning all online is that you can work at your own pace. And this is very amazing and very rewarding for us. Okay, I finishes tracing the main position off this flower. Now I will reposition the little flowers, the little, um, sherry flowers and I will paint another ones and other spaces that I am looking Look a little bit empty and I will see afterwards how or where can I and raise more off them? You can do the same. You can always take a look and see what you need to pay more flowers or or more a little branches or or other type of flowers or whatever do you think? Do you need more leaves, more little botanicals and see how do beautiful background is taking form? Okay, I think we are ready with this background The signs and I will let you know that when we air having the corner with watercolor, would you will see if you need more at more A branches, more lips more cold hard here and there, and it will be very nice. Now, here I am, adding some leaps on bigger lips because I think they will do a a better look when I am having the letters in the middle for this for this design, and it is best if we have and the place where the letter where, where, where we're going to place the letter There must be called it or with cooler because we we are going to write the letters with a white paint just to let you know. Now I am having little lives. They look so cute and you campaign them in different colors in normally in in green and very light green. And they look really nice, Like flowering like spring, like new new lips And these little I don't know how they are called by their They have these little this little Berries in the point and they look really nice because you campaigned any different colors and they look so dynamic for their paint. So now I am thinking I am ready. I tried toe No overdo it. But sometimes I overdo things. Then I think this is when you see the whole piece to come decide So at what toe? Keep quit some off This So this is all for this class And I will see you in the next video where we are going toe transfer these above ground se you in the next be via
5. Transferring The Floral Pattern: welcome to this class Here I have the war. We're going to be racing in the background. We just did In the last BB I have here my watercolor paper ready to be the campus for our masterpiece. You will see how easy it is to transfer these two pieces off A but off the peace We want to create any things justice, detector background, further background and a pensive. And you will call it on the backside and off their design. Just cover all the lines with the pen sitting. You can also use a watercolor painting. It will work just fine. And it is really, really fun. Anything to do and I will do the same with They were cute that it is the word we're going to a transfer tothis Florida and botanical We are creating together today. When you have all the lines cover with the fancy then you need to proceed to do the same with a war cute. In this case, remember, you can use whatever were do Like I am just suggesting this a words and these floors you can use your own creativity and on your Orn liking. Now we're going to do the same with the print that the war cute. Just cover or the letters cover or this space with letters with dependency, you don't need to do too much pressure. A. The idea is to get a just a little bit off the Ben. Still, the graph it off the pencil on the paper. Now fix your brother color paper on the surface with some where she tapes and then take is your piece and place the background with the pencil. Cholera on today with the color paper. No, it's time to transfer, dude, but go down feel stay back around and then the latest. You can do it for insight to sigh, offering top to bottom, overdoes the stewed and then doing it from side to side. Starting on the left side. Do the right sides too drunk for the background order or the lines? A. You need to do some pressure. Not that too much pressure, but you need to pressure so the lines get transferred to the paper so you can see it while you are painting it with water colors later. I never meant to do to check if the sign is going well so they can look. Lift up the transferred paper and see if the lines are transferred incorrectly and then continue with this work. Remember to take some breaks and drink your favorite drink. I am drinking some getting teeth and yeah, let's speed up the video so you don't get the world with me transferring the lines. NJ hypothesis. Okay. We have from for the whole background and I can see very really no, let's proceed to transfer They were cute one way by one, we will do the same applying pressure so the lines get very clear on the weather color pipe . You can also trace the letters one way one with your own home, right in style. This is totally in or in perfect order. So just a do things asked. You think they are a good for you? This at a just a suggestion. Oh, how do you can do things? But I remembered you are doing your very creative and you can do it in your own style. So I see. I noticed that the war is a little bit toe am light, so I will and raise them a game direct on the paper following the lines. The light lines that I just drum for you can do the same if you have this same a result. It's totally fine. - So my wardens Raisi, my background is ready. I have my A lines relating to work on.
