Transcripts
1. Introduction to Bold Colors and Neurographic Art: What happens when you start with wild colors and figure
out the rest later? You get the Part four of
abstract watercolor escape. Still abstract,
still watercolor, still a great excuse to tell everyone, No, I can't go out. I'm busy making
art. Hi, I'm Fatty. Watercolor artist,
online teacher, and recovering procrastinator
here in Warsaw, Poland. Me and my assistant, Jack, try to bring you good quality content to keep you creative. At least that's my goal. Jack, not so much. In this class, we are
flipping the script. Instead of drawing first, we are diving straight into color, letting the paint lead the way. It's so easy we are
doing four at once. Then we'll slow things
down with black lines and graphic patterns
and inky details that will elevate your
painting to another level. Making a series of
four square paintings that will look amazing together. Perfect for putting on
your wall or sending to someone who needs a little
creativity in their life. This is what we are
painting today. And this, and this and this. You will explore playing with loose, intuitive
watercolor, layering relaxing line patterns, letting go of perfection. Jack is already working on this. In fact, he's the best at not getting things
done perfectly. Whether you are brand
new or back for more, you will live here with
art that you are proud of and a little bit more
peace in your head. You can draw with
me in real time. Nothing rushed,
nothing fancy, you, your supplies, and me talking
nonsense in the background. And when you are done, share
your work in the gallery. Tell us what your
experience was like. Did you manage to reduce stress, forget your responsibilities for a moment? We are
here for all of it. Alright, paints out, pens ready. Let's paint first and
figure the rest out later.
2. Class Project: And then, because of
what this psychic says, George doesn't go on
his holiday he had tickets to Cayman Islands and gives the tickets to Kramer. And Kramer ends up spending the entire time
on the beach with supermodels and George
is screwed as always. It's the best. Oh, sorry. I was just telling Jack about this episode of Seinfeld
I just watched. Where were we Where
we? Class Project. Yes. So the class project.
You know the drill by now. I'm going to paint those
paintings over there. But during the
class, I'm going to show only one of them
from beginning to the end because I don't want
to make the class too long, and the process is similar. And I expect you to do the same. You can do one. You can do four. It's up to you and have
your set of paintings like me and take a photo of it and share it with us in the class
project gallery. That's it. And in the process, try to
relax, try to be mindful, try to give yourself
to the colors and the lines and the patterns. This time we're going
to do patterns. That's the biggest
difference here. We're going to talk
about it in a second. And just enjoy the process
and enjoy being creative. So I will see you in
the materials with you. Jack, where are they not going? That when I say, I will see you, they should just go
on to the next one. Bye.
3. Materials: And this the p so let's quickly talk
about the materials. I'm going to use this
watercolor paper. It's 300 gram. It's 240 by 300 millimeters
and it's from Tiger. I was complaining
about tiger paper in the puissan but maybe it was a bad batch or something because this big one is
doing okay actually. I'm continuing to use it. This was from an
exhibition I was in, and this was other project I was working on.
It's unrelated. We are using this paper.
I cut them to squares. To use for this
project, and what else? This we are not using the
tape in this project. I only use this for making circles and this as
well, my broken ruler. My watercolors are here, but it's because I don't
have space on my table. We are not using
these watercolors. However, you can totally
use your watercolors, just to show you something else. For this class, I decide to use the liquid watercolors
that these are, again, I bought from cheap shop once doesn't even have
a brand on it really. It's basically watercolor, it's just ready in
the liquid form and it has a eye drop thing and but you can totally use your watercolors for this and we're going to
use, of course, water. We're going to take
it with the brush and make circles and
then we will drop paint to create washes in the middle of our squares and then we'll make four of
them a matching set. Paper watercolors, if you
have liquid watercolor, I used this brush pen from Faber Castel
and mostly this 0.5. And then later for
patterns and dots, I use this micron 02 or 08 when I want to make these big dots because it's
pretty thick, this 08. Anything else? No, I think
that's pretty much it. Yeah, so that's it
for the materials. See you in the
first lesson. Bye.
4. The Idea: Why Paint First and Then Draw?: And this Hello. Welcome to part four of
abstract watercolor Escape. Today, we are doing
something a bit different. We are doing a set of
abstracts to go together. I will try to them all of them,
put all of them together. So the idea is today, we are doing a little
bit different. I didn't want you
guys to get bored. So we are putting a Narographic
art aside for this one, and we're going to go with the and we're going to
change the style a bit. Up to this point in every part, what we did was, let
me show you those. This was part one. This was P two, lit. And this was P three. So let's put them like this. With all of them, what we did
was first, we put drawing. After that, we painted. As I was doing this
over months and months, at some point I changed
the style a bit and I I looked all of the paintings I have and decided that I mainly do two
different types, first drawing, then painting, and then first
painting, then drawing. For this one, we will
probably come back to this style again in the future. For this one, I want to
change things up a bit. We are leaving the
neurographic lines behind for this project, and we are switching
from first drawing, then painting to first painting and then drawing,
we're going to do. And also, this will
be the introduction of the patterns
because at this point, as I was more and more
exploring this area, I realized patterns are even more captivating
the neurographic lines, and they really helped
me to calm down, wind down, it's the
best thing ever. So this was always going
in this direction. This was the plan
from the beginning that come to the patterns, but I didn't want to
do it all at once. Now we are leaving the
urographic lines behind, they will come back again
and we are bringing in the patterns, not too much. Um that we will do a little bit and it will get more intense later on in
the future classes. That's why for this
class for Part four, I decided to go with this
project. I created like this. This was, again, the
plan from the beginning. I made a set of them like this. I actually sat down
and made these colors, these circles on the
watercolor paper then I just felt like, Okay, I think I will
draw on them a bit, and this is what came out. And actually, this was my kind
of entrance to this world. And so I want you guys to
follow the same path as me. And what we're going to do, I'm going to create
four of them. They happen fairly quickly. And then we're going
to create one of them because all of them would take too much time and the class would be too long. But the general idea for
all of them are the same. You just mix and match the
different patterns and lines with others and we're going to create one
of them later at the end, I will show you the
whole set and then you can use the same
style as yours or you can come up with your
own compositions. And that will be it. If you are ready, let's start with the painting
because what did I say, in this class, we are doing
first painting, then drawing. We're going to paint first,
we're going to let it dry and then we'll
go to drawing. Good thing about this before we move on to that
just came to my mind. I really enjoy doing this
because I can make this in my studio and let them dry and then just put
them in the backpack. Just take a few pens with me and outside in a cafe
or wherever I want. It's very easy to
create that you don't have to carry
anything else because you already took the
painting with you. It's just one sheet of paper and it's already ready
for you to create. This way, it's very
backpack friendly. I enjoy this style painting
first drawing later. There's also a practical
reason why I like it. So now we're going to create. And for this one, we're
going to use this. These are also watercolors, but they are liquid watercolors. You can do this class totally with your normal watercolors. This changes nothing.
I just want to bring you something new to play with if you want to
change things up a little. If you want to get or
if you maybe already have liquid watercolors,
you can use. I'm going to use for this
class just for a change, but you can totally use your
watercolors. It's fine. And we're going to make some colorful circles like
this and then let them dry. So let's go to the
painting part. In the previous classes, the one after the idea
was always driving. This time it's painting. So
I see in the painting part. H.
5. Painting with Liquid Watercolors, Wet On Wet: So now, I'm going to
put these aside here. I'm going to put I feel like
my favorite among them. It doesn't matter.
I'm going to do all four of them, but I
will put this one on. Okay. And these are
the previous classes. If you haven't taken already,
you should go and do. But even if you haven't
done those classes, you can still do this one. It's not like you won't
get the plot or something. And these are all the
colour papers I prepared. So now, this is very simple. We are not looking
for perfection here. I especially like when it's a little wonky or not
a perfect circle. So just go ahead
and make a circle. That if it's difficult
for you guys to see at the moment
what I'm doing, I'm just adding water and making a circle in
the middle of my. It's difficult for me to see
too because I'm very cramped with the light in the
microphone around me. Let me see for a second. I left a huge gap here, I'm just bending the
paper a little bit to shine a light on
it to be able to see. It seemed too perfect to me, so I just made one part
stick out on purpose. Like I said, I think
it looks always more interesting if it's
not perfect circle. But in the meantime, I know that some people
prefer perfect circles. That's also fine. You can go ahead and make
a perfect circle. So this one is very dark,
but it's actually yellow. So I'm gonna I will try
to adjust this light. So I will be able to see better. Okay. And from the edge of
the circle you created, push some of this yellow. And I'm going to take I
think this is orange. And from the remaining space, I'm Itting some of this orange. I'm touching, actually, while
doing this to the middle, and I'm not going to
fiddle with it more. I'm going to just put
this aside now to try. Now we will do the second one. I Second one, let's say this one on the
side will be the guide. So now we are creating
another circle. It doesn't have to be circle
either if you want to do shape or completely
whatever comes out. If you want to do that,
that's also fine. For some reason, I like circles
that you've probably seen in my other paintings
I also use a lot. No. It doesn't have to be
perfect circle, also, it doesn't have to be perfectly
in the middle either. Like, you can make your creative decisions
on these things. Okay. And now I'm going to
take this purple one. And now I don't remember
which one was which, but it doesn't really
matter, does it? I'm gonna add some purple. Do you see how potent it is? The good thing about
this that when you use this liquid water colors, they are very strong and when you try to do this
with the dry ones in the pan, you wet them and then you
keep adding more water to this and then it
just becomes very watery and it's
difficult to control. For this kind of
just drop and see what happens in situation. They are very useful. And this one, I think I want to let's flow around a
little bit, so I'm These gaps that I left it
seemed too much in line, like the one, two,
three, one, two, three, so I want to break that a bit. And I think this one is ready, but a little bit before
I go purple here. So this one also
goes on the side. And next one, let's
say it's the swan. Let's take another piece
of paper. Here this. And process is the same. We are making a
circle in the middle. I need to think of a system that there will be a
light over there, maybe just allow me to
see because I guess it helps for the abstract
aspect of the class. I don't fully see
what I'm doing so. But let me have a look. M I'm just bending it to
get some more light on it. Let me see if I can do that for looking the camera
you can also see now. Okay. Mm hmm. And for this one, I think I'm gonna pink. Do you see how it immediately
starts going outwards? And We also gonna let this be if you want
to have another look. And the last one. And for this one, let's
say this will be the. I'll. I think I want to use
this pink and the purple. Which is actually
what I have here. And maybe yellow
as all. We'll see. Let's create our circle first. Again, I need to have a look first I'm showing
it to you guys. I'm letting the
water go all over the circle for starting. Hence Let's some purple here. Here. Purple is
very potent and I don't want to be
very overwhelming. And do you see how this
one is pushing the water, and then it creates these
blooms on the purple? These kind of things are
agile like. We want those. I think I want to add a bit
of yellow here. Not too much. Okay, now we're going to let this be as well and then to dry, and I don't know which one, but I will pick one and we will create our abstract lines on them and then they
will be a set. So see you in the drawing part.
6. Drawing Patterns and Mark Making: Hello, I'm back. Now
my paintings are dry, except this one.
These ones are dried. But it's okay because I'm gonna continue with one
of the other trees, but this one actually
turned out really nice. And let's look at the others. This one came out like this. And this one and this one. They remind me a bit of those psychological test,
how were they called. Shaoseng? No, that's a movie. Sorry, my alarm was ringing, and I think I'm going to
go ahead with one W one? This one. Definitely one with the yellow, yellow and orange. Yeah, I think I
want this warm one. I will continue
with this. Like I said now, all the paintings. One of them only I'm
going to repeat. No, one of them, I'm going
to do it for you here. The others, at the end, they will be ready, and I
will put them all together. But as a demonstration, there will be only
one of them, so the class won't be too long. And basically, it's the
same thing you change the composition a little bit and where you put the
patterns and so on. So I'm going to leave
one of them here. Let's do this one.
Let's leave this one. Now it's good to use ticker pen. I'm going to test this if
this is writing nicely. This one is okay. It's
checked quit seven here. This one, for
example, running out. It's good when you want
to make patterns that it's making a bit broken lines, but not for the main pen. I wouldn't I wouldn't use that. Just a second because I need
to go and get some pens. Oh, I'm back. Here
are more pens. These were my backpack because I was out
droving the other day. Um, here's my broken circle
making ruler and my tape. I'm not gonna usetape not
now later when we want to make this
beautiful black box. Oh, sorry, I need
to catch my breath. Because I went downstairs
and came back. And I think, yeah, you can see on this one, I was using this
to make circles. And so I will try to stay
true to what we have here. Let's put this aside. And so where where is this 0.8 Um I'm going to put the circles first. Let's do one here
and another one here a little bit
intersecting with the orange orb we
have in the middle. And let's see. These were, like I said,
they were the early days, and now the patterns
I make are much more I know packed and
it gives more texture. I like in here that this circling that I
think it brings it up a bit. So let's start with that.
But as you can see that basically when I'm trying
to make a composition in this part and
bring the lines, that I'm trying to
keep it interesting. This is the main goal because when someone is
observing your art, they will have a look, he
made a pattern like this, this circle is going
on this is in front. They will try to make sense of it because that's what we do. But then suddenly
there's a circle end, but here it doesn't
continue and there is not really a reason why,
but it's interesting. But in here, it does.
Is there a rule here? Because usually our world, there are physical ruses
when something happens, when you drop an
apple, it falls. It's a pattern. It always
happens the same way, but this is a different
world. Make it interesting. Make people think that
there is a pattern and then it doesn't continue
because there's a circle here, there's a circle here, but in here you can see
behind you in here you can't it interesting basically. That's what I always try to do. And this doesn't have
to follow exactly. It's good to go in a bit out. That's totally fine. So this is that. Later, we will do this. For now, let's start
with where's my. I think to not do everything
with the same thickness of pen that also
creates a difference. But as a difference
from this one, I think I want to
bring this pattern. How shall I? I can do the pattern in here. But then this outside will change the composition
too much, I'm thinking. It's basically the same Wise. There will be a
square here and here. Okay, I think I will do I will follow a
similar composition, but I will change
the patterns a bit, so that you will also get to see what happens with
a similar composition, but if you go slightly
different directions. This pattern, I do it a lot. It starts simple. And then when there is a bit of waviness that these patterns, it really starts
creating a texture. So it starts like this
and then it gets closer to the previous line. So you can do a pattern
similar to this. This already gives a very like
it fills the space nicely. But when the patterns when the lines start changing directions and start
getting closer, this gives the effect
of imagine a sheet on a bed in the morning when you sleep like all the
going up and down, it gives this feeling, then it creates more texture. So now, that's what
I will do here. As you can see, when
it gets closer here, it starts creating a
crease on the paper, even though there is no
crease, and I love this. Get close, get close, and away. Can you see how it starts
bending the paper? It's all an illusion, of course. You can even touch
them sometimes. Don't worry if it's
not perfect like the previous one.
That's also okay. To keep it simple, I will I think keep maybe just this is like
a wave actually. I will continue going like this, but you can also
change direction. Maybe let's change direction. Now what I'm doing
is that it was always touching on
this side, the line. I will now start touching
on the left hand side. First, it comes to
the center, close. And now I will get closer
on the left hand side. Do you see it
changed direction?'s And you can make the
lines even closer, try to leave no gap at all, almost like the tiniest gap
possible or make them bigger. That always gives a
different feeling. Everything else you do changes the perception of this
texture you are creating. So now as you change direction, it's starting to go
out of the page, and I need to think
about this part as well. So I will start
bringing it back. As you can see, lines are not perfect as they
come out of my hands, sometimes it gets shaky, but as a whole, you don't see you won't
realize it. No one will. And focusing on the lines
like this is such a it always makes me want to stop talking and just
focus on lines and enjoy. But I can't do that. So now I will start another
one from here. Let's see how it's
going to look like. So it starts with a little pump. It's just, like, almost
touching and then going away. Just focus on the lines. And now I kill it off. There was a little bump
here and just died off. Towards the end,
I will also make it go down and how I do that, I start making the line
flatter and flatter. And there's a crease here and it just
disappeared over here. That's one way of doing it
as a difference to this one. And Now let's do this. I'm going to turn the paper
like this for this one. And I'm going to
use a brush pen. Again, there's a difference, I didn't use a brush pen here, and I will try to give the
same feeling as this one, but I will do that
with the brush pen. I like making this pattern
with the brush pan because it looks
very interesting. But in the meantime,
it's very easy to do because all I'm doing, when I want thicker, I just press the brush pan a
bit more and it just makes this and then sometimes I'm not even touching and then
barely touching it. It makes this all very
interesting looking pattern. Trying to barely touch is fun. Try to alternate it
let's say in here, it started thick, I will start
in and then go to thick. And making these patterns, coming up with these patterns, is very good for your grain. It calms you down. It calms me down. I hope it has the same effect on you
guys with it like this. We are keeping the similar
composition very similar, but using different patterns, so you can also see
How it works out. And there is this
outside pattern here. I'm saying outside
because usually I keep things in a circle
at the moment. Like, this kind of
became my style but this was a bit early works, let's say, and I still like it. I will try to do
something like this here. Um should we do the same way or Dots are good, that I believe at these
dots, they were here. And then there were some over
here in the previous one, I will maybe change the place. A bit more. And I will try to do something here to keep the
composition again. This time, I'm just using the like with very much an ankle so it makes a very thick line, my brush pen. The last one. Now, I don't make this
kind of marks much. I more moved into, for example, bringing
a black circle. But I want to make it go across the I could say a
black circle here. Not a black circle
at the moment it's a circle. Let's see
where it will go. And maybe another one
here that's half visible. And another one that is
here behind this one. And some also, like
in the previous one, I fill that space
with these marks, but I kind of move on
from that and I will now add this one here. Behind it and another one because there will
be a black box over there, another one here. Okay. And these ones, let's take the 0.2 again. This is a pattern I like. It's basically just um, straight lines, but it starts
very close to each other. Then you start
separating the metal a little bit, and more. And then you start.
Binking them close regain. This is a very good exercise for your hand eye
coordination by the way, and this will definitely
help you with all the other drawing
projects you want to do. Isn't it a fun effect
because it makes pop? Because normally this is
how you would see an object that's to the sides because
it's curving away from you, the lines would get
closer and closer. And these ones, I want
to just make them black. Brush pen is very
useful for that. When I do this, I
often do three. I don't make it symmetrical. And sometimes I like leaving
it just empty as well. Mm hm. And at the end, we're gonna use
the masking tape. Something like this.
But this time, I think I'm going to
separate it from the site. Again, to differ from the
original a little bit. And this will be it
for our project. Now, where's my acrylic paint. This is also very easy to do. I'm just going to add
a bit of not bit off, actually quite a bit of black
acrylic paint like this. I will show you
how much there is. Look, can you see? There's quite a bit of
an acrylic paint there. I will just take a
scrap paper like this. And then I'm gonna swipe
this across. Okay. And then we're going
to let this dry. But because this is acrylic, it will stay so that you don't have to
wait until for it to dry. So let's reveal our painting. I'm just pinning straightaway before making my hands black, and then I will put
it on the painting. That's what I'm afraid of. And almost there.
Please don't trip. I'm in rush. And the final one And this is it. So now it needs to dry. And now we will finish here
and we will see with the other all four of them in
the next video season.
7. Final Touches: Deciding On the Final Layout: And this and the p so just to say, all four of them are now done, and I recorded all of them, but I only kept one of them in the class not
to make it too long. But if you want, let me know in the comments or reach out to me,
whichever way you can. So I will either put them as bonus lessons in the class
or as YouTube videos. If you want to see
them, let me know. Yeah, now we continue.
Hello. Welcome back. Now, all the paintings
are done, all the pieces. Let's make some space first so we can have
a look at them. Let's push this away. We are done with books paint and this Okay, now we have lots of space. We can have a look at them. First, let's have
a look at them. Compare them one by one with the original artwork from me to see because we try to keep the same composition but
change a little thing, so we can see how those pattern changes
affect the final image. So let's have a look
at them side by side. That the composition
is the same. But what are the differences? It's a bit like spot difference. That in here as an
addition to the colors, I dip of yellow
because I want to break in the original
one I felt later, it was too much of the
purple and violet. I wanted to break bit
by adding yellow. That's main difference. In here, instead of
this way we pattern, I addi these more geometric
triangles and lines. In this one, I have
these small circles that I kept them on all of them as a difference to this one
also these mid size circles. I had them that I actually really like how much this
actually brings to the picture, that this is a bit
in the foreground, this is in the
background, that this definitely gives more depth. I like that. In here, I had the circle here, but I brought this pattern
in a similar pattern, but instead of outside, it's inside and this pattern I carried over and the
black box are here. Overall, you can see how these changes even with
the very similar composition, how much difference it makes. Now I'm going to put this here. Let's have a look at these two. Again, same composition. The main players are here. The colors are similar. This circle here, there is this circle and
this circle here, and the black box
in the same place. I have a pattern here, similar, but I use the tick part of the brush pen here instead
and I like how it looks. In here, instead of the
circle, empty circle, I actually made a ring and
filled inside with pattern. And I like the
effect of this one. And again, these small dots, small circles and the
mid sized circles, they add a lot. These dots, as you can see, that it was giving a
pattern to the whole area. Instead in here, we have them kind of concentrated
and spreading out. And the pattern is a
bit different here, and we try to do these
little tricks that I was telling you how that
makes it actually interesting for
the observer that they expect to see
something repeating, I do something and then they think they know what's
going to happen next, like the pattern counting, but when it comes to
the colorful parts, that suddenly it's straight
lines instead of wavy lines. And we don't know why it doesn't have
to be reason for it. It's just I always say, never let them know
what your next movies. So keep it interesting. And what else is
difference here? I left out these patterns that outside the
geometric shapes. Again, here that this circle. This round object
being behind the ring also gives more depth to this one and this
pattern we carried over. And now let's put
this aside here. Again, in here, I switched
this circle to a ring. So then there is a
ring here as well. So they are kind of
connecting this way. Look. This could be a way to display them
as well, actually. Now, I did it for the first
time, but I quite like it. I think this is an idea
to explore next time. Yeah, the black box here
instead of this one, which I really like this very simple very lightly wavy lines that I like how much it brings to the painting that it
really gives texture and the feeling of waviness and it jumps out of the
paper a bit for me. I carried that over
here in this one. Instead here, I put a
ring that connects to another piece of the artwork. And we have the
similar patterns here following that this
outside pattern went inside here and we have
this mid size objects, circles, and again, one empty, that one has a light pattern, it appears a bit gray. Differentiates from the white
background and in here, again, it's radiating outside. An this one also as
something similar, if you remember, and they
also match this way. Can you see if we were
to put them together, which we will actually
look at in the next stage. And also, I use these dots to give a bit of a treaty
effect to the drink. And overall, I'm very happy. In here, there was a
little mistake that I I think I think here, it went too much to side and I just went outside
the masking tape. So we can hide it. No worries. And finally, these
ones that here, I kept the outside pattern
outside the circle, but use the brush pan for it. The black box is in the
same place in here. Instead of this pattern, I use this waby one that it
was from another square. We have our black dots here as a difference that this
pattern repeats here, and I carry the black box outside that's not touching the. As you can see, in the first glance
they appear the same. But when you get into details
that they are different. Now, let's leave
only the New set. This goes there. This goes here, and
this goes here, and this goes away
my original artwork. And now let's have
a look at this because this is a
set and they're going to be all four
of them like this. This is how I imagined it putting it on the wall,
four of them together. And the question is, how? Because there are many
combinations you can do because these
abstract paintings, they can stand in
anyway you want, and then they can stand
in any combination. So this gives us
like all of them, four different places,
four different. I feel like at least I'm
not a mathematician. The number I'm thinking
of 64 combinations, but I don't know why exactly. And I won't be able to explain. So I think I don't like that
this circle cuts off here. I think that should be
definitely like this. But the main thing
is I want this, this one, and this one to
be coming from circle. So to be able to do that
and leave on the site, I will need to put
this here. No. No, if this is in the
center, this was here. It's always inside. So what could accompany this? Let's start with this. I want these two to be in
the center like this. They are radiating outside. And I think I want this one
to be looking at the corner. And I don't want these to be so similar in the same place here and similar here. I
need to change that. What if we put this one here? Anything else comes
there looking. This looks interesting,
but it kind of matches that because this ring is a
bit bigger than this circle. Mm. I also they're not
gonna be touching. There will definitely some
borders between them. I'm just keeping them close to be able to fit in the
frame at the moment. If they stay the same, they can only go
other way around. Let's see how it looks. What if it was like
this and like this. In this way, I like the
black because these are in the first glance they are
really catching your eye. So I want them to stand randomly.'s what if it was like that, the rings. I think I like this
match up here. In the meantime, you can
also just do this for even work on a big paper and make it really matchy
matchy if that's what you like, and then cut them. That's also an option. But I don't want them to
be matchy matchy. I don't want these circles
to come exactly like this. I like how that looked when I put these two
together earlier, the rings, and maybe
that's an idea, but this is not what's
happening here. I want them to match
or align exactly. Just as a general look
when you look first, what I'm trying to achieve
is that I don't want the patterns to repeat
and look the same way, the composition I just
want them to look random. I think I'm happy with this
and I knowiz that we are leaving m Neurographic
art for this one. But I had an idea earlier. After actually
finishing all this, I'm going to attach these. My idea was, as a difference
to the original artwork. I'm going to actually bring the neurographic art,
but at the very end. Even though these are
not matchy matchy, for example, this circle
doesn't continue here, they don't align here. That wasn't the goal, and
I want to be that way. But again, that seems
like a pattern. That's something I do,
it's not matchy matchy. And the observer sees that. But we can do on the top
of this neurographic art, which will be actually going
across all the pieces, and it will kind of bring
everything together. So in this last part, that's
what we're going to do. I'm not going to do a lot. Few lines going across the pages and touching
some other objects, and then they will have these nice nurographic
art connections that, you know, no sharp corners,
everything is smooth. I'm only considering if I want to I think I don't
want to go over these. They are just so beautiful
these colors. Let's see. Let's start with one. And then this one let's say
it spun like this, like this. I can come out like that and
touch this one and go here. I's punt this way. I went behind it. And it continues here. And let's say it goes like this. There is one. This is the cosmic
connection we have. And later we'll do the connection. Let's
do the lines first. F I want to around 'cause I
am better from left to right, rather than right to left. On goes like this, let's
imagine that's coming out here continues over there. Gonna make it go behind it. And this we will
make it over here. Thick line to cover
this end to be okay. And now I think one
more line and I'm done. I don't want to overdo it. And that will be on this
one. How shall we do? Let's turn it around
one more time. And I'm gonna go in which
direction I want to, I think, come from here. I think I don't want
to go over here again, just from here to from this
one to this one, I think. It comes like this and Let's imagine comes out. Like that. So now, when we do
the connections and the various lines,
it will be done. So for this, I'm
gonna stop for a second and open
the other camera, and I'm going to
do them one way. S.
8. Bonus: Neurographic Art: And this Okay. Now, I put my zooming camera, let's say, for close ups.
We are done with this. I'm gonna do them one by one. But later, I don't
want to think, Oh, how was it standing? I just want to flip it over. And as it is, I'm just going to say,
one, two, three, four. So if I bring these
cords together, I know that this is the
way they were meant to be. I'm going to focus on
these lines and make the connections like we
always do with aerobic art. Okay, those are done here. This way, everything
is connected. And doesn't it look almost
like it was plugged, like a planet plugged. I like it. Now, I'm doing these various thickness lines
that I always do. Here, the line is
not so perfect. I will try to bite that and comes here. Doesn't add a lot to painting? I like how it looks this way.
I think it was a good idea. And I will do the smoothing the ends with 0.5 again because I want
the thick line from the brush band go into the same thickness as 0.5,
which is the origin line. And that's easier
than with 0.5 itself. Okay. This one's
done. That was quick. And you go here and
let's take you. Now, the connections so. Another one down. How's it going? Are you
guys enjoying yourself? Like this. Now, let's do the
give some weight to some of these lines that I usually try to find the kind of idea for either on the same directions like these long ones or I
can also add here as well. Mm. Let's here. Let's do at the end Bits. And I do here as
well, of course. And on this side, I will do
on the kind of long parts. There are some here as well. I'm gonna Perfect with 0.5. I realize it's also
touching here. I think I want to these lines, they are a little kind
of sticky and they are touching something
that is always have this attaching to everything
they touch, basically. W. Almost. Okay, another one. Done. Now, let's take. It's fine. So this way, in this class, we also have neurogpic arts
like first three parts, and we didn't leave it behind. Just it came at the very end. In the other ones,
it was always coming the first and leading
everything else. And here it just came
as a I don't know, like a thing that
connects everything. No. Almost there. Here, let's put here. Now it's connecting here, I need to see and make it the same thickness,
otherwise, it won't work. Let's do a quick check
if I need to here. Here. Definitely here. Okay, and this one C. Now the last one. Enjoy making these rings
that I feel like they add a lot to these kind
of abstract pieces. Oh, lots of connections
happening here. We are almost there.
After this one is done. We'll put them all together
and have one last look, and that will be
it for this class. I hope you guys enjoyed
it and made your own art. I love seeing what
you guys make. That's to here straight away. I need to hide this
mistake I made. Let's imagine it's
coming like this. It's not perfect, I have to say, I didn't do a great
job hiding this one. But it's not my only trick. When you make as many
mistakes as I do, you start getting creative. From the beginning, I was
thinking it will go this way. But I tried to hide
it with a line first. As that doesn't work,
I can always add a black dark dark planet
here to hide my mistakes. So mistakes are nothing
to be afraid of. They are just opportunities for some new addition to your art piece. Now let's connect this nicely. And this also connects here. Okay. And this way.
It's hidden now. Okay. This is also connecting here, so there's one more
connection here tonight. Okay, almost there. This comes back to that was good. And this one, this
one goes like this. So it should actually
ticker here and here. Also here. And this
one like this, like this, so it's here. And only here left. Okay. So now, how are they
standing? Let's have a look. One, four. One, two, three, four,
these two should be here. And these two should be here, which immediately
revealed here I forgot to make the connections. And also the add
weight to these lines. So I'm going to do this quickly. Here And then they supposed to be the
same thickness. Let's say look. Again, they are not going to stand
right next to each other, so it doesn't have
to be perfect. This is enough. And so, this one is like that, and this one is okay over there. I mentioned that
one is coming from the corners, so it's okay. Here It needs to be
I get ticker here. A tiny bit there. And
over here, it's okay. So now, this is the final look. I think I'm happy that I thought of this
and edit these lines. That this ribbon
going through space. I actually really
like how it looks. And it brought our
pieces together a bit, and they're gonna stand
a little bit apart. Probably, I will put
this on the wall and share a photo as well. So this is it. We are done. Our art is complete. It's go on the wall. I'm looking forward
to seeing you. I'll see you in the
conclusion with you. Bye.
9. Conclusion: Art Can Be Relaxing: And this and the Thank you for joining
me on this journey, and congratulations
for being creative and taking the time to relax and
slow down and be mindful. So what did we learn today? We can flick. Again,
I'm always mixing. We can flip the script, and instead of starting from
drawing and then painting, we can start with the painting, let the paint lead the way. And after that, we can come
in with our pens and fit our nurographic lines and patterns and elevate the
painting to another level. And remember, be interesting. Don't let them know what
your next movie is. Let them assume something, and then you go ahead
and do something else. Think that Oh, this
pattern is on top. This pattern is at the bottom. No. In the next spot they look, they're not going to
find the pattern. That keeps the
painting interesting. If there is one thing you
will take from this class, I hope it will be the
relaxation you felt while driving and you
will come back for it. While I got to here, I
will remind you again, please don't forget to
share your class project. That's my bread and
butter. I love it. I can't have enough of it.
Please, whatever you do, even if you don't
think it's good, please share with us so I can
see I can comment on them. I comment on every
single class project. After that, or during while
your painting is drying, please go and leave me a review. Reviews really helped
me a lot as a teacher, and also it helps
the other students to make a decision faster. So please take the time
to leave a review. Also, as usual, I'm
going to mention, don't forget to follow me here and wherever you can
find the follow button. I hope you enjoyed this class. I really enjoy seeing
your paintings after you take one
of my classes. I really enjoy
keeping you creative. So until then, stay creative. Bye. Okay, audio is recording. Let's do it. And video
is recording too. I'm starting with Intra. Let's just get over with it. In Turkish, we have
a saying that Cor couldn't ageify the
irk which means being afraid of death doesn't
help with anything or being afraid of death doesn't
help with you not dying. Something like that. So let's just get on with it. Shall we? I'm saying all these
things because I'm always nervous in
front of the camera, and I'm keep delaying and checking everything,
double checking, triple checking, and
just procrastinating, pressing the record button. So, Jack, press record. Let's just do it. Me
and my assistant, Jack, me, me man, me man. In this class, we are
flipping in this class, we are flipping the script, flipping the script,
flicking the scripts, flicking the script,
flipping the script. Okay. Instead of drawing first, we are diving straight
into color. Come on. Then we will slow things down with black lines,
graphic patterns, and inky details
that will elevate your painting to another plane of existence that I should
do a full stop there. I run out of breath. One
more time. You got it there. I'm racing again.
It's a demonstration. And the other force
but am I talking. Other force. What force?
May the force be with you? Thank you for joining me. Again, let's do it again. I really enjoy seeing
your paintings after you take one of my again. Bye now. Stay creative.
