Journey 

My grandfather encouraged us to paint Goddess Laxmi on the wall during Diwali; this is my oldest memory of my creative self. I never dreamt of being an artist, but as a kid, I was always inclined toward painting and even participated in various school-level competitions. I'm from Patna, India, and almost every child goes for engineering or medical. I was no different. I completed my engineering in Information technology in Indore and moved to Pune to work as a software engineer. I worked in top IT companies for a decade, and suddenly, the forgotten love for art came back, searching for me. I started my journey as an artist in early 2019 and eventually became a full-time artist in 2022.

Material Used: Oh, welcome back. So the materials which abusing use people 300 GSM old press. So this is a five size paper which I'm going to use. Andi Thistle is the picture. It's just so which I'll be applying a lot of people one inch masking tape. You can get easily from any shops. The's pressures, I assure you that details my next class Watto, then ballot Carlos, which I'm using, is black. This is brilliant Blue lemony alone Sienna, cadmium, yellow Is that all off? Different brands off liquid. It's camel in. Thats is really in blue from Benson Newton. Negatives. Did Danny White Usual number Permanent Yellow. This is a jindo course my spray. 3. Introduction to brushes: welcome back. So let's talk about the pressures. We'll be using us. The 1st 1 is Toe combo Combo Brush series. Five sized, 1.5 inch. So second brush is the Rigger Brush series. One size, two things. The combo. Brush rich. I'll be using it for my tree tech show. This is a rigger brush and comes the flat brush just size toe. Then comes the Texture Brothers, which is raising size three by a tinge. It's the fan Brush series, four size one, and this is a flat brush, which has hard prisons, and this is sarees or size eight. So let's begin. So just out putting dot or its I'll be using it for the lecture part off the tree. So just during the trip off the brush and creating a texture, second is the texture brush, which I'll be using for my crosses as well as to tree. So I'm just using the perfect and just slightly pressing it, giving the door tools shape. God brush is the compa brush, which will be using it for making my grasses. This is a step child abusing for making the dot, as well as for making classes just dragging it Don't words sound food. Brush is the flat brush, which would be using for filling up my sketch. So comes 1/5 brush is the fan brush, which I will be using for my glasses and mountains. Just using the site corner off my brush and just making a stranglers. She don't shape out off it. Eso You was far crosses as well and comes to rigger brush, which I'll be using for making the three branches as well as the leaves who all these takings I'll be using in my painting. So let's stop my paint. 4. Making TexturedPaper: Hello, friends. Welcome back to my class on now. I'm using this frontage Manage masking tape which had a play all with a sheet area that two advantages of using masking tape Oneness. Your sheet will not move while you're painting. And secondly, it gives a nice, nice border dodo painting which looks very attractive and beautiful ones your painting and stunned. So it's good if you're using masking tape, you can get this easily from any website, any painting website or any craft website, so make sure you put this masking tape evenly. All the wood is off this area off this at OCS paper and press it nicely so that when you're applying color to it, it does not cause inside. On this. Uniformity is maintained and now I'll be using duh critics just so professional for this office preparation you just used for self is preparation for acrylic. You can also you other products like Colton Gamel in Mentor Newt Breaststroke there many other productive which you can use, but I prefer using liquid X. It gives us the nice self iss. Don't picture do the paper while you're painting. So whenever you when you're using acronym it dries faster. So the lecture when you're painting when you're applying this texture and painting on that , it sorts less water when you're applying acrylic paint donut. So it's better to use Jessel on the surface area, so I'm applying this. Oh, just so on the holes. That's office area off this paper. Make sure that you apply it an evenly and one direction. Either you can use horizontally or vertically. I'm using your horizontally. You can also use it would likely whichever way you wish on it should be applied evenly on this office. And make sure that your surfaces clean and you apply all over this office area to the corners off paper. It takes quite a long time to get tried, so it takes around 2 to 3 hours to dry up on. And when does it takes a longer time so you can use the hairbrush way you can use the hair dryer. So not the Hamlisch had triumphed. Dry off this saw office. If you want toe, paint it quickly or you can live it for 3 to 4 hours. Once it has completely dried, then you can live being so I have applied on all the world to surface area you mentally? No. I'll keep this to try for 23 others and then next. 5. Drawing RoughSketch: Hello, friends. Welcome back to me class on this.
