1. Intro: A bookmark may seem
small and simple, but it holds a quiet
kind of magic. It's special because
it marks not just a page but a moment where
you left off in the story, a thought that intrigued you or a feeling that
stayed with you. So in many ways, a bookmark is a companion. Hello, friends. My
name is Mohan Senna, and I'm an acrylic and Gash artist and also a
camel art ambassador. So this class is
specially designed for bookmarks with
beautiful quotes in it. So it will be a 30 days class with a landscape
painting in Boho style. So anyone can try it out
even the bigners So come and paint along with me this beautiful and bright
vibrant bookmarks. And
2. Materials Required: So let's discuss
about the materials which will be required. So the first one is the paper. Now, this is the 200 GSM paper, which I'm using here, and it is seven into 2 " paper. And it's a very thick paper
as it is 300 GSM paper. And it has almost 24 set
which I will be using. Apart from that, we will be using masking tape to
put the tape around. And then comes the
pencil for drawing. You can use any pencil,
technical pencil, anything. Then comes the colors. I will be using acrylic colors, mostly camel and
Windsor and Newton. Apart from that, the brushes, there will be three brushes which we will be
needing the flat, the round, and the rigor brush. This is the round brush, and this is the flat brush. No bigger size flat brush, normal flat brush will work. And the tissue or the cloth
for wiping your the pen, the black pen and the white pen, white gelpin, the palette knife. And apart from that, we
will be needing palette and the jar for keeping
water. So this is it. So let's start with these
beautiful bookmarks. I'm really excited to share this tutorial with
you guys because this is very simple and
easy to do it. Anyone can try it out with a beautiful code on
it. So let's start with it. Uh
3. Shine Bright: Come back. So let's start
with our first bookmark. So let's first put the
masking tape all around. This is the masking
tape which I'm using. So try to put half on the
base and half on the page. First, put it on the base
so that extra gum comes out and then start putting
it on the bookmark page. So just half on the page
and half on the base. So like that, we have
to put all over. So be careful that it should
be in a straight line. Then only it will
look nice and neat. If you're not able to
put in straight line, try to put the line first and
then put the masking tape. So very simple and easy
way of putting it. First, put it on the base
so that extra gums remove, and then you can
put it on the page. Half on the page and
half on the base. I will be putting
on all four sides. Now, this is not compulsory. You can also leave it
and you can directly do on the entire bookmark.
It's your choice. So this is all I have
done, the taping. Now I'll just do a little bit
of drawing of the mountains because these are
landscape paintings which is done in Boho style. So it's very simple. It's
not very complicated. Anyone can try it out. So first I'm just trying to draw the
overlapping mountains. So at least four
mountains I have drawn. So one sun I will be adding, that is a half sun I will be adding on the top of mountains. So this is my smaller masking
tape which I'm using. You can use compass
also for drawing it. It's your choice, how
you want to draw it. Scrubbing the extra lines
so that when we will paint, the lines will not be visible. Make sure that from
all the sides, it is properly taped. Now, let's start
with the coloring. These are the colors
which are there, white, violet,
orange and yellow. I will be using my flat brush
for painting the top first. So let's take the yellow color. You can use any yellow,
whichever yellow you want, the lemon yellow or the
cadmium yellow, any yellow. So I'm just mixing
first a little bit of orange into this. So it's very light color, very pastel shade color. So first, I'm just trying
to cover the above part. You have to do with
very light color, so it should not be very dark. Applying it on the top. You can see how
light my color is. Adding more white to it. Try to use very creamy color, not make it very thin color because we
are using acrylics. So try not to make it very thin. So I've also covered
that sun also. Then on top of that, we will be doing the painting
once the color dries. Now, I have done
it on a bookmark. You can do it on any sheet, any size sheet. It's up to you. I'm doing it on a bookmark, and also I will write
one quote on this. So first, I've just
painted the above part. Now, a little bit corn is left, so I'm just putting
the same color there. Now, with my round brush, I'll start from below. So first, I will take
just violet color and start painting the
bottom line which is there. A very simple and easy painting. If you are a beginner and
you haven't tried acrylics, it's very easy, and
you have to just follow each and every step and
you will be able to do it. Just try, remember that
only water should be on your brush and directly
take the color and fill it. Don't mix too much
water in your color. Water should only be
there on your brush. So slowly, slowly, I'm
just adding white. So as I will go above, more and more white,
I will start adding. Just be careful with the
shape which is above, first outline it, and then
you can fill the colors. You can use your
round brush also. You can use your flat brush
also for filling this. It all depends upon your choice, how you want to do it. Which brush is
comfortable for you. You can see I've
just filled it with this nice dark purple color with a little bit of
white added to it. Now, as I'll go above, I will add more white to it. I'll just make the color
lighter and lighter. Like, I have made four layers. You can add four to
five layers also. It not only is that you have
to add only four layers, you can add many more
layers like four to five. Roly slowly, I'm just
filling the colors. Now in the top layer, I will add more white and very little
amount of this violet color. So now you can see
the transition from the dark to light color. This type of painting really helps us to understand the color tonal values also. If you are not satisfied with one you can apply the
second coat also. But if you are satisfied
with one, it's fine. Now I will start
adding the top part, giving a little
shape, proper shape, round shape to the lower part. So it's up to you how many
layers you want to apply. Now the second code you
can apply, it's up to you. So if you see any brush marks, you can definitely
apply second code. I would recommend to apply second code because
sometimes second code makes the color more bright and more neat and with less brush marks. So that's why I'm
applying the second code. Little bit color
variations will be there, but it's fine because
you're applying second code on the entire thing,
it doesn't matter. Slowly, slowly,
I'm just applying the coat with my same brush. And now let's start
with the above part. So that is the sun,
which I will be doing. I think the top one is fine, so I'll not apply second core. So a little bit of this
red color also I have added and little bit mix of this yellow and
little orange. So I want a little orangy,
dark orange color. That's why I've
taken red over here. So first, make the outline with circle and then start
filling the color. So if you have dark orange
color, you don't need red. But if you don't have
dark orange color, try to add little red to that yellow and orange mix so that a different color
value will come up. Very simple and easy to paint. Just try to make it
as neat as possible. The more neat the
painting will be, the more beautiful it will look. We are almost done
with the painting. Now I will write one at over there in the
darker part with my white gelpin So some of the colors, there are gap, so
I'm just filling it with this light color. So once your base has dried, then only write the coat. Otherwise, wait for
the base to dry. Once it has dried, then
we can write it down. So let's first
take out the tape. Now my whole painting has dried, so I'll just take
out the tape slowly. So now let's write
a small coat on top of it with my gelpin. This is a white gelpin
which I'm using. So on each and every bookmark, there will be one code depending upon the landscape
painting which I am doing. So let's meet in
our next lesson.
4. Go With The Flow: Welcome back. So let's start
with another bookmark. So again, I have just taped
down the entire thing. And first, we'll draw a little rough sketch and
then we'll start painting it. So this is go with the
flow as the names suggest. It's like a water which is flowing and you should
flow along with it. It's like that, the message. So that's why I'm drawing here first the
waves, which is there, and then we'll create one sun, very simple painting
and very easy to do it. Anyone can do this
type of painting. I'm just creating some
nice curvy lines. After that, I'll create
small sun on top of it, half of it, and then we'll
start with the painting. So for doing the sky, I will be using yellow
ochre and white color. So two colors I will be using. So this is yellow ochre. If you don't have yellow ochre, you can use chrome yellow also. And this is white color, that is titanium white, which I'm using here. So I will try to
make this yellow ochre colour very light color. It's a very light color. So maximum, it is white
and very little amount of yellow ochre I
will add to it. So you can see how much
quantity I'm taking very little amount of
this yellow color and mixing a lot of
white to it so that the background sky becomes
very light pastel shade color. So now with my flat brush, I will just start painting it. You can use your flat brush. You can use your round brush. Whichever brush you
are comfortable with, you can use it, and you can
just paint the entire thing. Try to use thick colour when you are blocking the entire sky. Very simple and easy to
paint these bookmarks, and these are very beautiful. So mostly we will be doing here the landscape
in Boho style. So this is one of them. If you're not satisfied
with one coat, you can apply second at
after the first coat dries. Now, once you are done
with the background, now we will be doing the we can do the sun and
then we can do the water. It's up to you whatever
you want to do. Now, the color
which I'm using for water is the hallow
blue here I'm using, but you can use any blue
whichever blue you have. So using my round brush, I will create a transition
from dark to light color. So like this, the
transition will go. So first time using
the dark color, that is the dark bluish color. Then as we will go down, we will use lighter and lighter and lighter,
so it will be like that. So first, try to use the
darkest blue which you have, and as you go down, try to make the color from
dark to light, the transition. Then only that effect will come. You can use your
round brush also. You can use your
flat brush also. It depends upon
your convenience, what brush you want to use. You can go line by line also, and you can just
directly paint it also. It's totally your choice, how you want to
paint your painting. You can see as I am going down, I'm making the color more light. So this is the exact
transition which we want from dark to light color. A If you're still not sure what to mix,
how to mix the color, mix quite a large amount of color with the first
take dark color, then on that dark color mix totally white color
a little bit, and then again, mix more white, then again, mix more white like this you can do or you can divide the color into parts
and then also you can mix. It's totally your wish how
you want to mix the colors. You can also don't create the shape and just try to
mix it first the colors, and then you can create the
lines that also you can do. So here you can see, I'm
just making the color a little more dark. Using directly that
tallow blue and making this upper
color more darker. And without creating any lines, just go down and down and down using more white and white. So like this, you
have to move down. So when you will
do this process, you will come to know
how to mix the colors, how much to mix the colors, and how to create a nice
transition from dark to light. So You can see how nicely the transitions are
coming from dark to light. So that's what we want here. If you feel that the color
is coming a little same, just try to mix it and just
make it a little more dark. Till then you are satisfied, just try to mix the colors.
This also you can do. No need to create the lines
like this and just try to first create the transition
from dark to light. So slowly, slowly,
as I'm going down, I'm making the color more light. Now, once you're done with
this whole transition thing, then you can add the lines
with the dark color. Try to add the lines
with the dark color. Simply dark color.
Take the dark color and simply try to
create some wavy lines. My color is still wet behind. I'm just adding on top of it. And these lines, I will
try to blend also with these light colors so that
the lines are not very sharp. I'm just trying to blend these
colors on the upper part. Similarly, you have to
do for all of them. Just try to blend the lines a little bit. Don't
make it very sharp. Just try to blend the
upper part of the line. I'm able to blend because my
colors are still wet behind. That's why I'm able
to bend the top part. Once you have done
all these blending, now you can create the sun on top of it with just this
yellow aqua colour. Using the same round brush
size four or size two, and just colour the whole above round circle and see that
your blue colour has dried. Otherwise, it will mix with blue and it will turn
out to be green. This is it. This is
what we have done it. Now, here, once the
space has dried, then only write the at. Simple at with your gelpin, white gelpinO even you can use your brush also to write it. It's totally your choice
how you want to write it. Simple quote I am writing here. You can see how
beautiful this color is looking the hallow
blue especially, and just slowly
take out the tape. So if you don't want
to put the tape, you can color it on the
entire bookmark also. It's totally your choice. I love putting bookmarks. That's why I put the bookmarks. You can see here the color
has little spread up. So what I will do it, I
will just take white colour and just cover that area which
has not come up properly. So this is it. Go with the flow. So you should always
go with the flow. So this is it, the
whole bookmark thing. I'm sure you will
also enjoy doing these bookmarks and we'll
meet in our next class.
5. Live: Welcome back. So let's start
with another bookmark with the quotation as v. So just
adding some mountains, some overlapping mountains, and then we'll start
with the painting. Very simple sketch,
not much to do. So you can see I've created four overlapping
mountains and one sun. Now, let's start
with the painting. So the colors which, again, we'll be needing here
is yellow ochre, white. And black. So these three colors we will be needing for
our complete painting. We don't need much colors. So first, we will be
doing the background. So let's first mix the colors. Now, again, a very
light color we need very light yellowish color. Again, if you don't
have this yellow color, you can use any color, any yellow color of your choice and try to make it a
little pastel shade. So just trying to fill this
whole sky color first. Very simple and easy painting, it is. Very relaxing. Just move your brush in one direction and try
to fill the color. You can see water is only
on my brush. That's it. And I'm just directly
taking thick colour, and I'm just putting
one layer of this whole light color
on this background. M Now, once you are done
with the above part, let's start with the mountains. So these are
overlapping mountains. So we'll start with dark color. And as we will go above, it will be slowly, the color will fade.
So it's like that. So let's mix first
this yellow ochre and black and make it like
a burned umber color. So very dark color it is. So just filling it up
the lowest mountain, I'm just filling it
with very dark color. And as we will go above, this color will becomes lighter. So just filling this
with dark brown color. See, when you are
using yellow ocher, you don't need a separate brown. You can just mix this color
and you can make brown color because this yellow ocher is already a little
brownish in color. Now, you can see I've added
more of yellow ocher in this, and I'm just filling
the above mountain. Now, again, I will make
the color a little more light by
adding white to it. And just filling this
area with my round brush, you can use your flat brush
also for filling it up. It depends what brush you
are comfortable with. Very simple and easy painting. I'm sure you will
enjoy doing this. Whenever you feel stressed, you don't have time and you
want to paint something, you can just pick one of the bookmarks and
just try it out. You will feel good. Because
when we do coloring and we use colors by just moving the brush and the
colors and mixing the colors, our mood automatically changes. So now we will add the leaves. But first, we will
remove the tape and then only we
will add the leaves. So before that, let's
paint this sun, which is there with
just yellow aqua color. Simply using my round brush
and filling this circle. Try to do it as
neat as possible. And now I will just
remove my tape, and then we'll start
painting the leaves. So I want these leaves to
be on the white part also. That's why I'm just removing it. So once we have
removed the tape, now I will start making the
leaves with just black color. First, I will create the line. Make the color a little
thin when you are making any lines or any
detailing things. Don't use very thick colour. And when you make the
color a little fluid, it will be easy for you to
move and flow your brush. Otherwise, it will be very
difficult for you to paint. So try to make the
color, little fluid, and that's just grab
this black color and start making the leaves. The leaves are very simple. You just have to press
and release the brush. Use your round brush of
size four or six and just press it and
then release it. If you're using from outside, then make it a little thin and as you go down,
it should be thick. The pattern is like that. So as we are going down, the leaf size will
also increase. And these are like wavy leaves, not very straight leaves, something like a wave,
you have to move the leaves like S type. These leaves look very beautiful when you
will do it completely. You can see I'm also doing it
on the white part as well. So take your time and enjoy the process of
creating these leaves. You can create
different leaves also. It depends upon you how
you want to create it. You can also create
two small leaves. I will look good. So it all
depends upon your creativity, how you want to decorate it, how you want to decorate
your landscape. O So you can see how beautiful
these leaves are looking when we
have put them on. We are almost done
with this painting. We'll just put the quotation
and we are done with it. The quote which we
will put here is live. Just live your life to
your fullest. Just live. That's it. So I hope you enjoyed this. See you in our next class.
6. Be Free: Welcome back. So let's start
with our new bookmark. Be free. So let's
first draw the rocks. These are rocks which are there, some small rocks
and some big rocks. And simple painting,
not very difficult. It's a very simple painting
and one sun in the center. So very simple drawing, just a circle the center. You can draw with
free hand also, and you can draw it
with your compass. Now, let's see what colors
we will be needing for painting this whole bookmark. The colors which we will
need here is white, sap green, black, magenta,
and lemon yellow. So let's start first
with the background. So taking my flat brush and just magenta
and more of white. So very little
amount of magenta, and maximum color is white here. So we have to make a
pastel shade background. So just mixing it with white and just apply it and
see what color is there. It's a bit dark, so I'll
add more white to it. And just with a simple coat with horizontal brush strokes, I will just fill
this entire section with a light magenta color. If you have pink color, that color also, you can use it. Simple strokes,
horizontal strokes. Try to fill the corners
properly so that the bookmarks, when you take out
the masking tape, it comes out nicely. So try to cover the
corner edges nicely. Very simple painting. You can do it within 15 minutes, and you can just gift it
to your any book lover, whoever you want to gift it to. I think handmade paintings are the best gift you can
give to your loved ones. And especially the book lovers. Let's now paint the below part, the below two rocks
which are there. So the first color
which we will be using, we'll mix and make
the colors here. Let's see what first we'll mix. The first color
which I'm taking is the magenta color
and lemon yellow. You can see it is a little
orange color mixing white and little bit of black I will mix to make it a
little brownish color. You can see how you can
make a nice brownish color. So this way, you
can just mix and make any color, whichever
color you want. So it's like a raw umber
color, which you can see here. Once this rock is done, the other one, I will make
it a little lighter colour. Lighter means more yellow and a little bit more white,
I will add to that. So it will turn out to be
a little lighter color. Just filling it with
my round brush. So in this whole painting, I will not be using
so many brushes. Two to three brushes
we will be using for this complete
30 days challenge. That is the bookmark challenge. Just try to paint it evenly. Once we have done with
painting of this, again, I will mix color. That is the magenta and lemon yellow to
make it orange color. So just making this a nice
coat and just wash off your brush and grab the colors
and just try to mix it up. You can see a nice orange
color has come up. So just painting the upper
sun with a nice orange color. So try to do it as
neat as possible. Now, after doing this, I will remove the
tape and then we'll start making the leaves of the banana, you can say. So just removing the
tape very slowly. So actually be free is
with the banana leaves, how they move with the wind. So it's like that you
just have to move freely. Just be free. Just make yourself free from all the obstacles. And, So that's why I've
kept the coat like this. So first, I'm drawing
the line from the bottom, taking black color. And with black color only, I will be drawing the leaves. The simple lines from
starting from the bottom, and slowly I will be creating the leaves also with
black color only. So I will try to take the leaf outside the white portion also. First, I will give the
shape with my black color. If you're not comfortable
directly using black color, you can first draw with pencil, and then you can do
the black color. It's totally your choice
how you want to paint it. First, I'm making tea leaves. I will make three to four
leaves because it is a very thin bookmark.
It's not very thick. So that's why we cannot
make too many leaves here. So just adding one more, which is wide open. Once I've drawn it, I'll just
fill it with black colour. Try using milky color so
that you can easily fill all the gaps. So two more. I will add one small, and one on the top, which is going towards the sun. Try using your round rush
only for doing this. Just try to make it as
simple as possible. So if you don't want to
make that second leaf, you can make all
the leaves same, but make it of different sizes, some big, some small, like that. So one more smaller one, which I will add over here. And once I'm done
with the leaves, we'll create some
little details with our sap green and
lemon yellow color. So just a highlight on
top of all these leaves. So just taking first the sap green colour and
a mix of lemon yellow, just to make a little
lighter colour. And I will just try to give a little highlight on the
curvy part which is there. Do these detailing when
your black color has dried. Otherwise, this color will
mix with black color, and it will turn into black. So wait for the
background to dry and then use this layer. A simple one. You can add a little bit more
of white if you want, sorry, not white,
yellow if you want. Adding here in the center. So just taking a little
bit of lemon yellow and just sap green mix and
giving this a shape. Similarly, I will do
for other ones also. For this one, I will
do on both the sides. Just the textures I'm giving just to give a
little highlight and a little more beauty
to the leaves. Once you have done
this highlight, we'll just do the quotations and we're almost done
with this bookmark. You can see how quickly you
can do just one bookmark. So yes, these are
very easy and you can quickly paint these bookmarks easily with just a few colors. Just adding a little
bit highlight or with this lemon yellow color. And now I will add the
coat which is there, just making a little
more bright with yellow. Now, let's add code with. Either you can write above
or below. It's your choice. I will write below.
Taking my black pen. This is black technical
pen which I'm using, and I'll just write it. I think below, I will write. Just be free. That's it. I hope you will enjoy
doing this painting and see you in our next class.
7. Keep Calm: Welcome back. So
let's start with our new bookmark. Keep calm. So let's start first
with the sketching. Simple sketch. Overlapping
mountains first I will draw. So like this, I have
just drawn, I think, six overlapping mountains,
and then on top of it, sun. Tree, I will directly will
be creating with colors. So these are the colors, cadmium yellow, turquoise,
black and white. So let's start with the first color that
is Tallow turquoise. Taking white and mixing
a little bit of white in this turquoise color and a little bit of black because
I want a little dark color. So first, we'll start
with dark color, and as we will go up, the colors will become light. You can use any color,
whichever color you want. If you don't have
this turquoise color, you can use any blue colour, teal color, purple color, whichever color you
like, you can use it. Same process. So I'm just taking out all the
colors from my palette, and then I'll start
from the last one. So from the lower,
we'll go to upper. So first, I'm starting
with the dark color. And then as I will go up, I will start adding more
and more white to it. So taking my round brush, I'm just first doing
the lower part. You can see how
dark this color is. Very simple and easy to paint. You just have to change
the colors accordingly, just by adding white. So in this way, you
will learn how to make the transition from
dark to light also. Now, as I'm moving up, I'll just add a little
bit more of white into this color
which I have mixed, and slowly we will move upward. Oh Try not to mix your colors with the brushes because the brushes get damaged if you mix
the colors with brushes. Try to mix it with your
palette only palette knife. So just adding one
more layer of color. Now, again, I will mix a
little more white into this. You can see now the colors
are becoming more light. So one by one, I will be filling
each of these mountains. So so again, we will be
adding white colour. So this is the
easiest way to add actually white colour
on the same color, you keep on adding and
adding and adding, and a nice transition from
dark to light will be created. So you can see water
is only there on my brush and I'm just
taking nice thick color Now, as I'm moving upward, again, I have added white. So you can see how beautiful the transition is coming
from dark to light. So, likewise, you
can use any color, whichever color is
your favourite. You can use that and you
can make this transition. Now, once this is done, we'll first paint the background and then we'll paint the sun. So for painting this,
we will be using cadmium yellow and more white. So cadmium yellow will
be very less amount, and more amount will be white because I want a
little lighter color. So you can see how
light my color is. So similar color you can use. If you have naples yellow, you can directly
use naples yellow. Naples yellow is also
similar to this color. So just applying it
with my flat brush, taking thick color and
blocking this background. So you can see
I've just block in the entire thing. Be careful. Try not to disturb these
lines which are there. Do it very carefully. The more the neat painting will be the more beautiful
your bookmark will look. So I've almost filled
the entire thing. Little bit is left because we'll cover that sun, so
I've left that part. So I'll just take my round
brush and my cadmium yellow, and I'll fill this
up this entire area. Very nicely and very neatly
try to do this circular part. You can see I've
just done this part. After that, I will
just remove the tape, and then we will be
creating the pine tree. Try to do it very
carefully, very neatly. Then only that effect will come.
8. Keep Calm Final Details: Welcome back. So let's
start with the tree part. So just making the
color a little dark, mixing black and
this thalo turquoise and just creating first the line using my rigor brush. If you're not comfortable
creating the line directly. First, you can create
it with pencil, and then you can draw the line. So after drawing this line, we'll start creating small, small leaves as this
is a pine tree. So as these will go down, the size of these leaves
will start increasing. So I've just zoomed
a little so that you can see the textures
which I'm creating. These are just random
dots and lines, which I'm trying to create it and trying to
give a shape to it. As we go in the
outward direction, these dots and lines
decreases so that the thing becomes
pointed like a leaf. I'm also filling the
area which is in between those spaces that
are between these leaves. So very small
textures are these. Just have to create
random dots and lines, and you'll create a perfect
tree texture, as you can see. Try to use your rigor brush or liner brush for
doing such details. It gives a very realistic
look to the pine tree. So once we are done with this, we are finally done
with this painting, we have to create some few
leaves and we are done. So the reason behind keeping the name as keep calm because as these trees keep calm in
winters and same in summers. So like these trees, we should also keep calm
in extreme situations. So that's why I kept this
name for this bookmark. So you can add some
birds also on top of it. Very simple birds. It's totally your choice. You want to add or you
want to just leave it like this because this is
also looking very beautiful. You can leave the
bird part also. But if you want to add it, you can So let's write the coat with our white gelpin I am writing in the dark place, so that's why I'm using
your white gelpin. Simple codes, and then we
can just remove the tape. You can see how beautiful
this painting is looking, this bookmark.
Very easy to make. Within 15 minutes, you
can make such bookmarks. Also, you can extend these
lines to the white part also. So the leaves which are there, you can just extend them to this white part
so that it will give a little more different
look to the bookmark. So just extending it more
towards the white line as well. So I hope you guys are enjoying
this bookmark challenge, which we are doing here. So let's meet in our next class.
9. Fly High: Hello, friends. Welcome back. So let's start with
another bookmark painting. So I've just taped down
with the masking tape. These are the colors, white, red, Bern sienna,
and Pain's gray. So let's start first
with a little drawing, and then we'll start
with the painting. Simple overlapping mountains
first time creating. And a nice sun picks and I
will create with my compass. You can directly
create this circle. No need to use compass also. You can directly create
the circle like this. Just make a small circle
with the compass. So all these things you
can directly also do. You can do with your compass, or you can take any circular
thing and try to draw a small circle on top of it
because on these small area, drawing with compass is little difficult because we don't
want a very big sun. We want a smaller size. So now we'll start
with the painting, just removing extra
lines which are there. Now, let's start with
painting using paints gray, little bit of white mix. First, I will do the background, that is the sky,
very light color. So starting from the top, I will add a little bit
more of this white, and starting from the top, I'll just try to color
each and everything. Eaving the sun, I'm just
trying to block in everything. If you don't have pains gray, you can use gray color also. Just add a little
bit of blue in that. So just covering the
background first. If you will use thick
colour in one coat only, everything will be
done perfectly. You don't have to
use second coat. So water is only there
on my brush. That's it. So once we have done with
the background painting, we'll start with the lower end of the mountain with
just a dark color. Little mix of this
color which is left. So it's completely dark. Using my round rush, I'm just trying to block
in this last one first. Very simple and easy painting. You just have to
block in the shapes. Anyone can do it, and it's done within
day 15 minutes. So just give a nice smooth
touch to the boundary. And then after that, we'll
be painting the upper part, which is with different color. That is the brown color
which we have taken. That is the burnt sienna. So I'll mix a little bit
of white and burn sienna together and a little
bit of red also. And I'll try to just
apply on this part. Just taking lots of burn Sienna, mixing white and a
little bit of red, and just covering
the upper part. Try to block in very nicely and neatly because the more neat
your painting will look, the more beautiful it will look. Uh So I've just applied on the above. Now I will just be adding
another color on top, which is the lighter color
of the same version, but I'll add more white to it. So same color. I've just add a little white to this
and a little bit of pains gray and just
applying it on the top. So we are done almost with these three
overlapping mountains. Now we'll start doing the
sun with normal red colour. Any color you can take
any warm colour, red, orange or scarlet lake, crimson, any color, whichever color you feel
like you can take it. Just mixing a little bit
of white to this and just covering it
the upper circle. Very simple and easy to paint. Try to do it very neatly when you are
doing the circular part. If suppose if colors comes out, just try to make
a circle a little bigger so that the
shape is proper. So once this is done, we'll create the trees.
10. Fly High Final Details: Come back. So let's start
creating the tree line using the same color that is Pain's gray and by
using my rigor brush. I will start creating the lines. I will not create
a very thick tree. It's just a thin tree
which is just blowing with the wind and all the leaves are just blowing with the wind. That's why I have named
this bookmark as fly high. So also, I'll be creating
some birds over here. So thinking that in mind, that's why I kept this
bookmark as name as fly high. So everything has meaning. So yes, so just making
the lines a little thick. So just making the
lines a little more thicker and a little more branches and sub
brranches I will be adding. Now, whenever you are
adding these lines, just try to make sure that
your color has to be fluid. It should not be thick color. Otherwise, you will not be
able to create thin lines. So try to make your
color a little thin, then only your lines
will be also thin. So that's why try not to use thick colors when you are
creating such fine lines. Just adding some of
the branches and sub branches and few leaves
also, I will add to it. Just adding some leaves. You can add these leaves
with your round brush also. That will be easy
for you because these round brush has nice
round tip on the top. With this brush,
you can easily add some nice round leaves. Simply adding few of
them here and there. Just enjoy this process of
drawing leaves, drawing trees. It gives a very soothing effect, and within 15 minutes, you'll be able to complete
this and die of painting. So small small birds
also you can add. But it's not compulsory. You can leave it
like this. But if you will add, it will be good. So you can add some small
small birds on the top. Small small size birds, since my painting
is also very small. So let me zoom in
a little so that you can see it clearly
what I'm drawing because these are
very small and tiny birds which I'm drawing
on top of this bookmark. Very small and tiny
birds are these. So do it very carefully. You can also do it with your technical pen if you're not comfortable doing
with your brush. It's completely fine. Very small and tiny little
birds which are flying high. So only three birds I will
add, not more than that. After that, I will just
be adding the coats. So three to four birds
is more than enough. Now let's add the coat also a little bit more branches
and shapes you can add. If you want you can
add more birds. It's your choice, how many
birds you want to add. Or you can just leave it like
this just making the tree. That's completely your choice. So now just adding a little
bit more of these lines, just making a little thick
and a little more lines, thin lines here and there. Now, let's add the coat
with my white gel pen. You can also write in
this black part also, but I'm writing in the center. So just simple codes fly
high with a quotation. So yes, double ates
and we are done. Let's take out the tape
and see how it looks. So let's meet in our next class.
11. Be Still: Welcome back. So
let's start with our new bookmark, B still. So first, we will just draw a little sketching and then we'll start
with the painting. This painting will be completed, like within 13 minutes. So let's start. Just
simple outlines I'm doing. And then I will just
start coloring it. I just simple sunset
and the pathway, that's it you have to draw. The boat, I will be
drawing directly. So let's start with the painting first, these are the colors. The first color is black, tallow blue, orange,
white, and naples yellow. So these are all colors
we will be using. So let's start
with our painting. I will be using flat brrush. So first I'm taking
naples yellow directly, and I'm just applying
it to the foreground. Now, if you don't
have naples yellow, you can use cadmium yellow and just mix a
little white to it. A similar type of
color will come up. So just applying it in
the foreground first, simple yellow,
taking thick color. Water is just on my brush
and I'm just painting it in a nice one direction. So once we are done
with this painting, then we will be
doing the background and the middle ground. Let's just wash it off my brush, and we'll take the second color. Thoroughly wash it
off your brush. Now let's start with
the orange color. I will be using simply orange
color and I will just apply it on the above background. I haven't mixed any color. I'm directly using
cadmium orange over here. You can see how
bright this color is. Try to do it in one direction. And with very light pressure, you have to fill in the colors. Once we are done
with this, we'll wait for the background to dry. Then only we will add
the sun and the birds. So let's do the middle part, which is the thalo blue
with a mix of white to it. So just mixing a little amount of thalo blue to this white. So whenever you mix any colors, take the lighter color first and mix with
the darker color. So this is the rule. So I'm using here round brush because I want to make a line over the foreground as well
as the background. It should be a nice neat line. So that's why I have used here my round brush and try to
fill it in one direction. After you can fill it with
your flat brush also, but I have taken round brush and I'm just trying
to fill it up. You can definitely switch to the flat brush if you
are just blocking in. Now, if you don't
have tallow blue, you can use any blue,
whichever blue you have. If it is dark, just
mix a little bit of white and try to
fill in the colors. Mm sure you do the above area, which is the orange part
carefully because there is a line in between the
orange and the blue. If your orange is wet,
it will mix with blue, and it will turn out to be a nice grayish color
which we don't want. So now you can see I've
left a little bit of white space there
because first I will color this whole sun with mix
of naples yellow and white. Tick color you have to use. Only when your
background has dried, don't use it on wet one. Otherwise, this color
will turn into orange. So once your
background has dried, then only apply this color. Try to do it as
neatly as possible. The more neat you will do, the more beautiful it will look. So once we are done
with the above part, now we can do the
lines in pillow, just covering it carefully
with my round brush. Okay. So now let's start with
the boat which is there. You can also add some birds above with the white
color or black color. Whichever color you feel
like you can just add it. I thought of adding white color. So I'm just adding a simple
V shape normal birds, very simple, which we used
to learn in our childhood. So yes, now let's
do a little bit of shadow effect of this sun. So I'm just making the
color a little light, and I will just add
a little bit of shadow effect to the area
which is just below the sun. Just simple lines because
since this is a boho painting, we don't have to do
a very detailed one. So now we will be adding some more lines
with my flat brush. This will give a more
nice finish to the lines. Once we have created
these lines, now we will add the boat
which is very small boat, it is not of very big size. Simple boats, it's
not very complicated, you just have to take
your round brush of size two or four and just try to create a nice
curvy shave like a U and just make it a
little thick with a nice little thick and with a nice triangle
shape on the top. If you are facing difficulty
doing it directly, then first draw with
your pencil and then you can color
it with black color. Just a simple sketch
and also a shadow, which is same, similar. Whatever you have created above, you have to create just below. Very simple and
easy sketch it is. You can directly do it
with your same color also, and if you have difficulty, then you can obviously
draw and then paint it. So just creating the reflections
just below this board. Try to make it with
similar shape, little bit of up
and down is fine, but try to give
it a little shape of the board which is above
because it is a mirror image. Do it very carefully and neatly. You can see a
similar shape I have given to the below boat also. I will add some
reflections also of the water with my same flat
brush just on top of it. Make sure that your color
has dried, this black color. Then only put this lines. Otherwise, that black
color will mix with this light color and it will turn out to
be a grayish color. Just adding small small lines
to give a watery effect, the reflection effect to it. Making the lines more
crisp and clear. Now let's add some leaves below, with my round brush only. You can take any
size two, four, one, any size brush and try to
create some nice leaves below. Just with the tip of your brush, you can easily
create these leaves. You can see these leaves are mostly in the
upward direction. Now, this is completely option. You can leave it empty
also. It's your choice. If you want to leave it empty, you can leave it
empty also without any leaves or any grasses. So more grasses on the sides. So just adding some few crosses. And then after that, we'll write the quotations where the
area which is left in between the yellow So taking my black technical pen, I will be writing the name, the quotation over
the yellowish area. As the names suggest B still, so boat that's why I have
resembled here the boat. So be still be calm
and be gentle. So like a board, you should be still calm and gentle
and keep flowing. So let's see, take out the masking tape
and see how it looks. So this is the whole
bookmark complete painting. I hope you enjoyed this. If you are painting this out, do tag me on my Instagram. That is Mohni Art Gallery. I will love to see it, and
we'll meet in our next class.
12. Still Blooming: Welcome back. So
let's start with our new bookmark that
is still blooming. Let's first draw some sand
areas which are there. So we are drawing
some sand dunes, just normal wavy lines, three to four lines
we will draw, and then our sun and then
we'll start with painting. So characters we will
draw directly by using the colors and just
a little small sun on top of it, and that's it. And then we'll start
with the painting. So let's take first color, which is the red color. 50% red and 50% born Sienna, we will mix together and we'll make a nice reddish brown color. That put the colors we
will be using together. So I'll just mix these two
colors with my palette knife. Nicely just mix both
the colors together. And after that, we will
be using white color, sap green color, and black also. So let's first take white color because we have to make
the color a little light. And it should be a light
color it should not be a dark color when we are doing
the background specially. So we'll make just a
pastel shade of it. I'm just taking sap green also, so that we will do
it simultaneously. So first, we will use the color which is the normal
dark color which is there. The reddish brown color. And I'm just painting the first one, which
is the below one. And as we will move above, we'll start adding
more white to it. So this is how it goes. These are all sand dunes, which I'm showing with
different brownish, reddish, brownish color. So as I will go above, I will just start adding
more white to it. So I've given the name still
blooming because instead of these such harsh weather that characters
still blooms there. That's why I given
have suggested that name to this bookmark
that it is still blooming. So, likewise, in our
lifestyle, also, there are many times
which is very tough, but still some people are a very happy face
always smiling. So this is what it is. Nature teaches us a lot. So just adding the layers. As we go above, we'll start adding more
and more white to it. So as you can see, Very simple and easy
painting, it is. Anyone who is a beginner
can easily follow all these steps and can easily make these
beautiful bookmarks. Very easy, very simple. And very relaxing it is. You just need your 23 brushes that is round brush, flat brush, and the liner brush, and you can make such
beautiful bookmarks. The last one I'm adding
with more light color, and then we'll start
adding the sky. The sky will be the lightest
color of this color. So you'll see how it is. Now I'm using my flat brush and mixing more amount of white, and I will start
applying from the top. Make sure that all
these masking tape is taped down nicely, otherwise, those crisp
line will not come up. So just adding more
white to it to make it to the lightest color
which is there. It's like a buff tan
color, you can say. So any color you can make
just by mixing the colors. If you don't have brown, you can just make orange
and add some black. You can make easily
that brown color. I have just applied the
first layer of the sky. I think I have used a thick color so I don't
need to do it again. So if you're using thick color, you don't need to
do the layering or blocking of colors again. Now, after doing this, I will start painting the sun, but you have to wait
for the base to dry. Once the base has dried, then you can add the sun which
is on the top of the sky. Simply just to remove
the brush marks, just doing one more layer. Now, once this is done, I will then take the colors, blending, just putting
one more layer to give a nice smooth touch
to the background. Now we will start
adding the sun. My base has dried. Now I will just take this dark
color which is there. That is the mix of the
colors which are there, and I'm just applying
coloring that circle very properly so that it
is round and very neat. So now I will start
adding the cactus part. So for the cactus, again, I'm using my round
brush, sap green color. And first, I will
create the shape, and then I will color
the whole thing. So first, I'm just
taking my brush. Water is just on
my brush and I'm just first creating
the shape of it. So in round brush, there is one technique that the more you will press your brush, the more thick the
lines will be. So first, I'm just creating a nice thick vertical line with a nice semicircle on the top and just filling
it with the colors. Now, you can see my sap green
is a little translucent. So I'll just add a little
bit of white to make it more opaque color because I don't
want a translucent color. So just adding little white can make your color
a opaque color. Adding a little more
darker color to the sides, just to give a little
highlight to it. So more cactus roots
which are there. The stems which are coming
out, this is not a root. This is the stem, small, small stems which
are coming out. So just very simple
and very easy to make. Two. So this is one plant which grows in these areas which are
mostly the desert area. It holds a lot of water inside, so I'm just making a little big. I don't want it
to be very small, so I'm just extending the
line a little bit above. You can see I've just extended
it a little more above. Now we will add some details
also to this little bit of the little bit
details, not too much. I've just taken black
color over here and with mixing
black and sap green, I will just make one area a
little bit more dark so that it will give a little more
effect to this plant. Also, I will add some more details to this
whole plant structure, adding a little more darker
color to one side only. Now, I'm just using
my gelpen that is the white gelpen to
write the quotation. You can write it on the top with black or you can
write it below also with white color.
It's your choice. I think black will
suit more over here. So I will just start writing with black color because
white is not visible. With white technical pen, I'm writing the ads
still blooming. Now, let's give a little
more details to this. This has dried up
and now just small, small white dots I will
add onto this area. I think I'll use the round brush because with round brush, it is more easy to create small, small round dots, thick colour and small small
round dots here and there. Oh. So you can see just small dots
I have just added. You can add one more
characters if you want, or you can leave it like this. Let's remove the tape
and see how it looks. Now, you can see the little
color has come up there, so I will fix it just
taking my same color, and I will just try to fix
this up with my round brush. You can fix anything, any mistakes over here when
you are using acrylic. So let's meet in our next class.
13. Make Your Own Magic: Friends, welcome back. So let's start with
a new bookmark. Make your own magic. So I'm just drawing
the center line, the horizon line, and above, there will be
overlapping mountain, or you can create a simple
mountain just in a U shape. And after that, we'll draw the dolphin whose
face is upward. So very simple sketch. Not much. So just drawing
the nice U shape, something like X shape size and some fins dividing the
line in the center, and there is a fin which
is on both the sides. So the name which I have given
here, make your own magic. So like the dolphin
creates their own magic in water and creates
the magical beauty inside the whole ocean. Same way, people can also do
and create their own magic. So nature teach us so many
things in so many ways. So just thinking this in mind, I created the at this
make your own magic. A small bird which
is flying above. And that Dolphin
is looking at it and just enjoying and making its own beauty above
the water surface. So just a small sketch, and then we'll start
with the painting. So let's start
with the painting. So the colors which we will be needing here are
just four colors. That is cobalt blue, yellow ochre, black and white. So let's start from the top. So from for the top, I will be using yellow
ochre and white, so it will be more of white
and less of yellow ochre. You can mix it directly
with your brush or you can also use your
palette knife for mixing. So I'm just currently mixing
it with my own brush. That is flat brush, and I will apply just same
color on the top. If you don't have yellow ocher, you can use the cadmium yellow also for this whole
thing or naples yellow, any color you can use. So just blocking the above part. U Now we will be
painting the lower part. The lower part is more
lighter in color. And in the same color, I'm
just adding little blue, and I'm starting to
fill this whole thing. Just adding a layer of
very light, bluish, grayish color and just
mixing more of this yellow and blue and just applying it and moving the brush in the
downward direction. So try to add the brush
strokes in one direction only. Then you will get a very smooth
finish of the background. So once we have done
with the background, there's a little bit of
pencil line which is visible still below this color. So we can easily paint it. So let's first start
painting the mountain, and then we'll gradually
move to the dolphin. So just adding a black
and little white to this blue and making it a
light grayish, bluish color. So it is a dark color, and I'm just using
my round brush and trying to fill this
entire area which is there. So just filling it very carefully without disturbing
the horizon line. The more you will paint such
type of painting neatly, the more beautiful
it will look and try to use thick colour
so that in one go only, you are done with the painting because these are
very small paintings. Now, once you are
done with this, let's now paint the
dolphin which is there, adding black and making
the color a little thin. And using my liner brush, I will try to first fill in the colors which are
black in colour, the body of the dolphin. Whenever you are drawing
or coloring anything, first try to outline it, and then you can
fill in the colors easily so that your colors
will not come outside. So first try to
outline it everything. And then with your
same liner brush or rigor brush, you
can just fill it up. Since this is a very small area, that's why I have taken my
rigor brush to fill this up. You can use your round brush
also of size zero or one. So try to do it as
neatly as possible. Just making the line below. And then the fins, also, we will try to color it. So so then comes
the white color. So before white color, let's add the water part first, and then we can
color the white one. So being same color, which is the mountain
color, very dark color, and just applying some nice water ripples which
are coming there. That dolphin is creating
magical ripples around its whole body. That is the magic which
the dolphin is creating. So once we are done
with those ripples, then our black color
has already dried. Now we can apply white
colour in the body part, which is the below
part of the dolphin. Let's add the bid same color. Again, all these
small things try to do with your rigor brush
because these are very small, small shapes which we
need to be done properly. That's why try to do it
with your rigor brush. So let me zoom in a little so that you can see it properly. So you can see how the lines are coming very neat and
crisp line to create it. Always try to use your
liner or size zero or rigger brush because
this will help you to create a nice
and neat painting. Now, let's paint the part which is the body
part of the dolphin, the below part, which is there. So just adding white
color on that part. Also, some white is there
on the black part also. Everything I'm doing
with my rigor brush. Now, this is the whole
painting which is done. So now we will write
some quotes below. That is, make your own magic. This code I'm writing with
my black technical pen, simple lines with a quotation. So this is it. You can see how beautiful this painting is
looking after it is done. Very simple and
very easy to do it. Anyone can try it out. And if you are trying
out this painting, do tag me on Instagram that
is Moheni Art Gallery. I will love to reshare that. So now let's take out the
tape and see how it looks. So now we will meet in our
next bookmark painting. So I hope you are
enjoying this series.
14. Slow Down: Welcome back. So let's
start with a new bookmark. So these are the colors, white, naples yellow, black,
and hallow blue. So these colors we will be
using and a flat brush. Let's start first with
the background painting. We'll not be using any
drawing or anything. We'll directly draw
with the colors. So I'm just making the
color a little light, and then we'll
start from the top. So as you can see,
I'm trying to make a u pattern to this
background painting. That's why I'm painting
it in a shape. So just trying to
paint it in a U shape, and as we go down, we'll start adding
the yellow one. So I'm just making
the color a little light and just
blending the colors. And as we will go down, we'll start adding
the yellow part. So here you can use
the round brush also, but I feel that flat brush will give more neat finish
to the background. That's why I'm using
the flat brush. So once the coating is done, then we'll start
creating the trees. So I'm just painting it, and then as I go down, I'll start adding
the yellow colour. So you can see I'm
making a little lighter, moving it in the upper direction so that there are less
brush marks there, a little more darker on the top and trying
to blend the colors. So like this, we have
to move the brush. Now we'll take white
and naples yellow mix, and we'll start with below, and we'll start adding and
blending the colors with this. Blue color. Now, you can see
my blue has already dried. That's why that line is coming. So now, again, I will take blue color and start blending
it with this yellow. When you mix naples yellow
and this tallow blue, it gives a very nice
greenish touch to it. I not turns permanently green, but it gives a very nice, beautiful color which
comes out to be. You can see the color
which is coming out. Very beautiful color comes out. So just trying to blend it
with very light pressure, very light and you have
to blend the colors. After blending is done, we'll fill the below part
with the yellow colo itself. Now with our rigor brush, we'll start creating the trees. So the trees the
background trees will be a little lighter. So mixing yellow to this blue, and we'll create
nice tree structure, big, big trees at
the bottom part. So you can see some are
small, some are big. So random sizes of trees,
we'll start adding So very beautiful way
of creating pine trees, which I like to paint the most, this type of pine tree. As the quotation
says, slow down. Slow down means you have to just enjoy the process of everything, whether you are painting, whether you are doing anything. Don't move fast in it. Just enjoy the process, slow down and watch
how it is going. So you should not
run in a rat race. You just enjoy the process and just see how the
brushes are moving, how you are painting it, how your life is going,
slow down a bit. Oh similarly, nature also does
same thing. It slows down. Sometimes you must have
seen that at a point, the trees stops there and it
slows down and it breathes. So this is a time
when it is fully grown and it has slowed down, and it is just relaxing. So you can see the
light color trees I'm creating at the back. And as we will move forward, we'll create the darker trees. Same type of trees I will be creating on all the four trees. Now, here the area
is very small, so you cannot add too
many trees over here. So I think four is
more than enough. So just enjoy the process, feel the flow of the
colors on the brushes, how the brush is moving, and just enjoy the process
of creating a new bookmark. Each and every bookmark
has its own uniqueness, has its own beauty. So you can just pick any one
of them whichever you like, and you can start painting. Most of them are completed
within 15 minutes. So even if you have 15
to 30 minutes time, you can just paint one bookmark. No need to paint all of them. Just paint one of them, whichever you like,
and it's done. Now, taking black color
and mixing a little water. Whenever we are creating
any lines or any details, try to use thin color. Just mixing a little water
in this and creating some nice trees on top
of the lighter one. I have drawn four lines, and on top of that, I will
start creating the trees. Very simple and easy to create. You just have to
create with dots. Dots and lines, simple textures. Let me zoom it so that
you can see it clearly. So these are just
simple lines and dots which I'm
creating over here. Similarly, I will be creating
for other trees as well. Try to use the black color
on top of this lighter one. So here you can see
I've just added four of them because the
space is very less. So yes, we can add just four
of them, and that's it. Very simple, easy and
beautiful painting, it is. So just enjoy it. Do it slowly, take your time and enjoy the process
of the details. So once we are done with
all of these four trees, we'll start adding some
birds on top of it. And on small, like a U shape
moon also, I will add there. So with just using
your same brush, or you can use your technical pen also
for creating the birds. If you face any difficulty creating the birds
directly with your brush, you can use your
technical pen as well. Very small tiny birds. I'm just creating on top of it. So I'll just zoom it in so that you can see the details of the bird properly because these are very small
and tiny birds, which I'm creating over here. Just created three of them, but you can create
four to five birds. It's completely your choice, how you want to do it. If you face any difficulty
doing with your rigor brush, you can definitely use
your technical pen, or you can use your
liner brush of size zero to create these
small and tiny birds. These are very small
and tiny in shape. But these cute little birds
add beauty to this painting. So try to do it very carefully. So just three birds, I will add a small moon, which is there on the side. So just enjoy the process and do it very carefully
when you are doing this. And just taking a
little white color, making it a little very less white color you have to
take and just a very thin. It's a half semicircle shape you have to create very thin it is taking a little bit more of white and making
it a little more visible. We are done with this. I'll
start adding the codes, which is slow down with
my black technical pen, and then we are done with it. This moon shape you can also create with your white
gelpin if you want. Normal slow down with
black technical pen. And this is it, and then we'll just take out this
tape and see how it looks. So this is complete, so we will meet in
our next class.
15. Accept Yourself: Welcome back. So let's
start with a new bookmark. So first, we will be
doing the sketching, and then we'll start
with the painting. Simple sketching,
starting from below, and some nice landscapes, and then the sunset. So the main part here is sunset. And the coat which will be
here is the accept Yourself. A simple sunset drawing with
the rays going outward. So the main focus here is
the sun which is there with the nice rainbow warm colors
which it is spreading. So how the sun accept
itself like that also we should also accept
ourself. So it's like that. Simple lines, I'm
just drawing it out, and then we'll start
with the coloring. Very simple sketch. You can draw these lines
directly with scale also, or you can draw simply
with your free hand. It's your choice. Now, let's
start with the painting. So the first color which
we will be using here is the Indian yellow. The second color will be red. You can use any red, naples red, scarlet lake red, any red, cadmium red, whichever red
you have, you can use that. And the third color is the lemon yellow. So lemon yellow after
that, black and white. So these are colors we will
be needing for the painting. So I've just taken out all the colors and we'll just
start with the painting. So using my round brush, I will be doing first
the lower part, taking red colour and a
little bit of yellow, Indian yellow and white mix, and starting from
the bottom part, I'll just fill in this
whole area which is there. It's a nice, pinkish, yellowish color with tint
of white added to it. After that, we'll
do the next part, which is the adjacent
landscape which is there, making the color a
little dark by using black color in this little
brownish color it will come. So you can easily mix and make brown just by adding
all these colors. So simple brownish color, or if you have directly
burned sienna, you can use directly
that color also. But I feel when you
mix the colors, you learn more how
to mix the colors and make the combinations. So this part we will be
doing with this dark color. Now, the above part,
I will be taking this lemon yellow and
Indian yellow and just mixing together
both the yellows and filling the upper part. Whenever you are
filling the colors, try to make first the outline
and then fill the colors. That will be easy for
you to fill the colors. Take thick colors so that
in one go, it's done. Otherwise, you have to
repeat another code. So try to take thick colors and do the blocking of these things. Try to make it as
neat as possible. The more neat you will make, the more beautiful it will look. We will paint the
sun which is there. I'm just adding a
little bit of red and this Indian yellow together
with lemon yellow mix, making it a dark orange color and painting this
above round shape. Covering this whole
circular part. So you can see how
we can make orange also just by mixing the
red and yellow color. You can see how bright
orange it has come up. So now we will be
painting the above part. So we will be using two to three colors
in the above portion. So let's begin with that. So the first color, we'll do one by one the colors like alternate
colors we will be using. So total, there are four
colors which we will be using. So the first color
I'm just making it with white and
little pink color. I'll start from the first part, and leaving the three parts,
I will do the fourth one. So like that, I
will start painting the whole rays which are there. You can see I have
left the three gaps, and the fourth one
I'm painting it. Again, I will leave
the three gaps, and the fourth one,
I will paint it. So like that, I have done
this whole painting. So the first color
which I have mixed, I will first block
in the entire thing, and then we'll move
to the next part. As you can see, all
the three of them, I have just colored it. And I think the bottom one also, I will do it because
after three, the bottom one is also left out. So like that, I'm leaving the three parts and
the fourth part, I'm painting it with
this light pink color.
16. Accept Yourself Final Details: Welcome back. So
let's start further. So the three of
them I have done. So let's mix another color, which is the light
yellowish color. So that's what I'm making here. So if you don't have this
Indian yellow color, you can use cadmium
orange color also. So it's like a more of towards or cadmium
yellow also you can use. It is somewhat like
that type of color. And just covering one
by one, all of them. So like that, after pink, I'm using this yellow color. So every adjacent color, which is the pink
adjacent to it, I'm just adding this
light yellow color. So now comes the third one. After that, we'll do the
third color which is there. The third color is the
yellow and white mix, lemon yellow, which
I'm using here. So this is a different
yellow, you can see. So just a lemon yellow
and white colour. So both the yellows
are different. Indian yellow and lemon yellow, both are different yellows. So adjacent to Indian yellow, I'm using lemon yellow and
white mix and filling it up. Likewise, you can also divide your sections and you
can paint it with different variations
of warm color. Now I'm using this red and both the yellows
mixed together. This will create another
form of orange color. You will see here. Very nice bright orange
color it will create. So this is the fourth color
which I'm using here. So you can see a
nice orange color has been created over here. So there are total four
colors which are there, which I have divided into. Now, all these
paintings I have just done with this brush
only this round brush. It's a very good brush, and all these paintings you can do just with one brush
also, the round brush. This round brush is of size
six, which I'm using here. So you can see I've just
blocked everything. And after drying, I will start
outlining it with white. But first, you have to wait
for the background to dry. Then only you can use that white gel and you can
do the outlining part. So I'll start from
the bottom outlining. So I will outline each and everything with my white gelpin. If you don't have white gelpin, you can use white color and just outline it with
your liner brush. That also you can do Simple outlining each and every part of these drawings
which we have made. So just outline it carefully. Make sure that your
background color has dried. Otherwise, it will not work. So your background should dry then only outline it
with your gelpin. Once we are done
with the outlining, we will start with
the quotations, which will be written below. So you can do this outlining
with free hand also. You can do this outlining
with the scale also. It's totally up to you how
you want to outline it. You can also create
these wavy lines. It is a straight
line. You can create some wavy lines on top of
it to create the rays. It's totally how you want to paint your style of painting. So I'm just giving a little idea that this also you can do. Mm. You can see I have just outlined it with my gelpen each and every line. And after that, I will start writing the
code which is there. With the same gelpin, I'll start writing the code in the darkest section
which is there. Simple codes. You
can write this code or you can write something else. It's totally your choice. I thought of writing
this by seeing the sun. So you can write anything, whichever coat you
like, you can write it. And this is. This is
the complete painting. Let's take out the tape
and see how it looks. You can see how beautiful
this painting is looking. Let's meet in our next class. M
17. Glow: Welcome back. So let's start
with our new painting. So these are the
colors which are here. So the first color which we will be using is the Prussian blue, black, white, and
fluorescent pink. So let's start with
the painting first. Here, we will not be
drawing anything. We'll directly paint. So first color which I'm using
here is the Prussian blue. So a little bit of black
and Prussian blue mix. With my flat brush, I'll start from the top. So starting from the top
and as we'll go down, it will be more towards
the pinkish side. So as we will go down, we'll just add Prussian
blue and we'll try to blend this color
with the dark color. So as you can see, the area is very small, so try to do it very neatly, especially at the edges so that this proper border comes out. It's just trying to
fill all the areas, especially the corner areas. Now, as we are going down, I'll add more of white
mix to this blue. And just trying to
blend both the colors. So you have to remember that whenever you are
blending two colors, both the color has to be wet. Otherwise, it will not blend. So again, I'm washing off my brush because the dark color has been there on my brush. So taking again the
lighter color and putting it aside and trying
to blend with the darker one. Like this, we'll go all
over to the down part. So just taking more of this blue because this
blue has dried up. So just adding this blue and trying to blend with
the lighter color, washing off my brush,
removing extra water, and then we'll try to
blend the colors more. Just with a damp brush, I'm just painting and
blending the colors. So now taking pink color, mixing it with this white and just putting
it a little bit, taking a little bit of blue
also because my blue has dried and just blending this colour with this
lighter blue colour. So here we have to
mostly focus on the blending part because we are making a
dark, glowing sky. So maximum portion
is the dark portion. Adding more pink to it. And as I will go down, it will be more and more pink. So this pink color, I'm trying to blend with
this blue colour. So when you blend this blue
colour with pink color, automatically, some of the
colors turns out to be violet. So just try to blend
it as much as you can. So try to use thick
colors because if you will use thin
colors, it will not blend. And if you will
use thick colors, the colors will not dry very fast and it
will blend easily. Now just with damp brush, I'm just trying to blend
this pink with blue. Now it adds some lighter effect, which are the sparkling effect
to this whole background. So with my same brush, that is the flat brush
I will wet my brush, make the color a little fluid, and I will start
spraying the colors on top of this whole background. So a little light violety
color which I'm making and just spraying it with my
finger using my flat brush. So you can see how nicely the stars are coming up when
you sprinkle it like this. So once done this much, now we'll start
creating the trees. So we have to wait for this background to dry
before drawing anything. Once this background has dried, then we can add the trees part. So for the tree part, I will be using a mix of blue
and black mix. So more is black, less of blue, mixing it and with
my rigor brush, I will start creating the lines first and then we'll
create the tree textures. So starting from the top, slanting lines are these. And as it is going down, it is becoming more
and more bigger lines. So like this on both the
sides, I'll try to create. So you can see I'm just
creating the lines. So once done, we'll
create some more stems, some more branches
to these lines. Adding few branches and making
the line a little thicker. You can use your rigor brush or your size zero round brush, any brush you can use to create these branches and try to make the color a little fluid when you are creating such lines. Don't use thick colour. Try to use thin colour. So I've kept the name
of this bookmark as glow as stars glow in the dark. That's why I have kept this name of this
bookmark as glow. I've just created the
branches and sub branches. Now we will create some leaves. For the leaf texture, I will be using, again, my flat brush, a
completely dry brush, and using my dry brush, I will take some of
the darker color, and with the side of the brush, I'll create the textures. Very little color
you have to take. Don't take too much color. Otherwise, it will
create a patchy effect. So take very less amount
of color on your brush and just with the
side of the brush, you have to create the textures. So slowly, slowly one by one, I'm adding these textures. Here you can use your fan brush also for creating textures. But here I have
used the flat brush only for creating such
textures of the trees. So wherever I have
created three branches, there only I'm adding
these textures. So try to take very
less amount of color when you are creating
such type of texture. Don't take too much color. Very little little amount
of color you have to take. Now you can see entirely I
have done the texture part. Now we'll start
writing the coat. I will mostly write the
coat in the section, which is the dark section
with my white gelpin. So let's first make it dry and then only try
to write it down. Now, just writing in the darkest
part which is there with my white gelpin just
a big this is it. Let's take out the tape
and see how it looks. You can use any color of
your choice you want. So we will now meet in our
next bookmark session. So this is the
complete bookmark.
