Acrylic Painting : Learn How To Paint Buddha Portrait

1. Intro: As Julie said by Buddha, happiness is not having a lot. Happiness is giving a lot. Like a lotus flower. We do have the ability to rise from the mud and bloom out of the darkness and radiate into the world. I myself as deeply inspired by the teachings of Buddha. And I truly believe, the more we share knowledge, the more we get. Hello friends. My name is Santa and acrylic artists from India. And today, I'll guide you how to paint step-by-step Porta portrait painting. In this class. I'll be also telling you what all materials will be needing to complete this painting. Watercolors, which will be needing to create those textures. And complete blocking off the portrait, the layering technique, and the blending of colors, creating some realistic textures. And finally, how to frame the painting. And this is the final look. Let's start with it. 2. Materials Required: Hello friends, welcome back. Let's first discuss about the materials which we'll be using here. First, this is the Canvas. This is the five to seven inches of Canvas and I've already drawn the sketch. I'll be providing you the sketch and my reference image you can draw from dad. And this is deep primed canvas. This black and color. The colors which we'll be using are of different brands, which I'll tell you separately. But these are the brands which I am using your that's golden, Gamblin, Winsor, and Newton and Liquitex. These all brand colors I'm using for acrylic painting. And apart from that, the knife for mixing the colors than pencil and eraser for drawing these scale for creating the grid. When you will be drawing the image. Apart from that, the brushes which you will be needing here are, there are many brushes which we'll be needing. This is the round brush, synthetic round brush. Then this is the Bristol brush, which we'll be using for creating texture and other brush to brush. That is, the one is round brush and one is flat brush, and another one is of larger size. There are different sizes of Br2 brushes which we'll be using for creating textures. Then we'll be using some flat brushes and filbert brush. These brushes, these are also synthetic brushes. And then comes the liner brush. There are 23 liner brush of three sizes, which I'll be using here. Apart from this, then comes the blender brush we'll be using for blending the color. And for cleaning our brushes, we need tissue, paper or cloth, whatever you feel like for cleaning the brush. And then comes the water container. This is the container which contains three blocks and has a grid in that where you can easily remove the colors properly. So this is the container which I use for painting with acrylics. And you can also put the brushes on hold is a standard also. And the sprayer just to spray the water. And here I'm using the palette, which I'm using here is the glass palette. The advantage of using the glass palette is that you can easily remove acrylic colors from the glass palette, but just by rubbing it with these ponds or any hard substance. These are the materials which will be needing for completing our painting. Now let's just discuss about the colors which we'll be needing. The first color is burnt, umber, raw sienna. These two colors, which we'll be using for the background of the portrait. You can see the background color. This we'll be using. Lemon, yellow, cad Orange. These two for creating textures, also titanium white for creating values. So these are textures which I have created by using these three colors. And black, of course, for lining and for some more texture detailing. So let's start. 3. Blocking Body: Hello friends, welcome back. We'll, we'll start with the blocking first. The colors which we are using here is raw sienna, burnt umber, lemon yellow, anti-Darwinian white. And this is the complete sketch which we'll be doing. And false we'll do, we'll be doing the blocking part and then the rest detailing. Let's start 50 blocking first. We'll start from the down part that has the lower part and then gradually will go to the face part. D first, I'm just wetting the colors with my spray bottle that the color doesn't dry quickly. Just taken just mixing the colors with the water. You don't have to make the color very fluid. It needs to be a little bit tick. Just mixing water with the colors I've used. Very less amount of water, not much. Just mixing the colors. That's it. That when I'm using the colors, it is completely read and I don't need to apply another water or fluid to it. Coming it's not coming out from the night, so I'm just taking out with my brush, just trying to blend it. The water and the color. This drawing I will attach and my reference image with complete grid forms so you can check with that. So either you can draw with a grid method or you can trace it whatever you like. Because I didn't want to waste my time and drawings, so I just added the reference image to it. Now here I'm using my filbert brush, just applying little bit of water. And then this bond Dumbo. And I'll mix it with raw sienna little bit, very little amount. Because I wanted a little darker version. When you're using the colors, when you are applying the colors on the black background. These a little bit transparent colors, so it will not come up easily. You have to apply another code over it. You can see it's a little bit of a dance lewd and you can see that black color behind to it. We will need to apply one more layer of this color. But first we'll do the first blocking, and then we'll proceed further. I'm just applying the blocking. I'm just blocking the area. That's it. But making sure that the colors doesn't go out of the edge. Adding little bit of white to it. That it becomes more opaque. Because when you add white to, it becomes little bit more opaque. The color tried to do it very slowly. Keeping in mind the area. A little bit of yellow I have applied on the top portion because as we go above the color of the statue, it becomes more bright and shiny. From darker to little bit lighter color. You must have seen me mostly doing landscapes. So this time I tried to do something. I'm like portrait. I've done. But portrait also you can see my classes. This is the statue of Buddha, which I'm doing good. I'm just trying to match up the colors. I've just taken a little bit of ivory black, also applying little bit ivory black to the lower portion because I want this lower portion to be little dark as compared to the above part of the body. I am doing with acrylics, but you can also try same painting with oils or with quash painting. Same method. Same colors also you can use when you're using oil or any medium you can do. You can just see I'm using very less amount of water and adding just the raw colors and blind over the hands and body. The best part and acrylic is that the color comes out of the border also, you can always redo that. You can cover it with black. So you can see I'm doing deep painting in the horizontal direction, but actually this painting isn't in vertical direction so that you can see it clearly. I've put the painting in horizontal direction, but once this will be done, I'll just put it didn't vertical position. Just applying it slowly. The colors. The best part with acrylic is that we don't have to wait for the first layer to dry and then we'll start in. It dries really fast. To stop the drying off the colors. Just spray water on it will be fine. So same color I'm applying in the area also. You can see I'm using the filbert brush because you can easily cover those areas. We just sharp enough with the filbert brush, but also you can, if you don't have filbert brush, you can use flat brush also for doing this. It's perfectly fine what brushes you are using, but whatever brush you're using, make sure these are synthetic brush. You don't, please do not use watercolor brushes. Otherwise your brush will get damaged. It will completely dry up and the whole Bristol will become hard. So it's better to use or the synthetic brushes or Bristol brushes if you are doing the oil painting or acrylics. Because these colors when dry up, it becomes hard and your whole brush will get damaged when it dries up. So as soon as you are using the brush, just put the brush in water and wash it off. All the colors. Don't leave your brush as it does lying on the surface. Otherwise it will get dry up and it will not come out. Same color. This I'm using with the bag seed where the statue is lying. The area which is touching the hand is a little bit dark, so I'm adding a little bit black to it. Again, the downpour caution, same way. Just trying to match up the colors adjuvants as possible. So as to go give it a little bit realistic look of a statue. Just making the lower portion a little bit more dark. The first layer of this painting is almost done. Just the pod is almost complete. Just giving a dust shape. The lower blocking is almost done. Let's start with the next part. 4. Blocking Face: Hello friends, welcome back. Let's continue with our painting. The body part we have done a little bit, neck portion is left. So first let's complete the hand painting first. Now here I'm using my round brush because this is quite narrow area. I'm using my round brush to paint the hand and see the size of the brush always depend upon the size of the painting. If you're painting is small, then accordingly, you have to choose the smaller brush size. And if the painting is big enough, you have to use the bigger size of the brushes. Then only you will be able to nicely blended colors and complete the painting on time. So here you can see I have used five into seven inch size canvas. The brushes which I am using a mostly 246, Not more than that. If you are using bigger size painting, then you have to use bigger size brushes. Now this hand and body part is done. Now we'll go with D face detail, phase blocking. First, the outer portion of the face is a little bit dark. Then as we move inside to the cheek area and to the nose area, the colors will be lighter. So from dark to lighter version, we have to go. You can see I'm just adding black to my raw amber and just outlining the outer area first. Then gradually we will move to the inside part. Mean part of the area is the phase. It has to be very proper. Then only the whole portrait painting will look effective. I've just taken yellow will apply on the portions which have highlights. You're also, you can see I'm using my round brush because it has sharp dip and you can always use round brush for creating some sharp edges. I'm just highlighting the areas which are a little bit bright and shiny with my lemon yellow color. This is just default blogging and you don't have to worry, worry if there is any mistake or any colors which are mismatched if used, you can always overdo it. And acrylics. Just highlighting the outer face, the nose part. You have to be very careful while painting the face. Try to do it very slowly. Commonly. Take your own time and do it slowly. You'd want to have to cope up with me. You can always pause the video and then again watch it and again to wet. This is the advantage of watching it online. You can always watch it again. Take your time and do it patiently. As I said, that the inner portion is little bit lighter in color. For lighter color, you have to just add raw sienna. And for the darker version you have to add raw amber black, little bit of black to it. I'm just trying to figure out which color to use and which color to not above also, it's quite lighter version, so I'm using it. Raw sienna. There is one portion which is quite bright. So here I'm using white color, just blended with my raw sienna. And later on we'll again do the second layer, then we'll mix it properly. I'm just trying to figure out the colors where it should be lighter color and where it should be darker colors. So I'm just trying to do that. And in the second layer will do the complete blending. And the third layer will be detailing this first blocking as almost done. I'm just trying to blend that white color with this burnt sienna. And after that, we'll be doing above head portion. For doing that, we need this black color and white column mixture. It'll just block in more whites and just adding a bit more black to it. And it's kind of a grayish color, which we have to apply it on the turban, but actually it's more of black and less of white, so it's almost dark grayish color. Again, say that. I'll just cover this entire area, but the gray color. I'm using the same round brush for blocking the head. The above crown portion again, the same color which we have used for the blocking the body. Same color I'm using here also. Something just I'm removing that so that it doesn't stick up. I'm just applying that same color on this also. Finally, our first blocking is done. Now we will start with us Second blocking. 5. Second Layer Of Blocking: Hello friends, welcome back. Let's start with our second part. So you can see that this first part of the painting, which is the background blocking, is done and it's completely dry. Now, we will start with the second layering. I have used same colors. Just one color I've added is GAD orange. Now again, we'll be using burnt sienna, raw sienna, and burnt umber. I'm just mixing board of them. And then again, I'm applying the same color over the body. Now you can see that the color has being, become quite opaque when you are applying the second layer, because the background color is black, so you have to apply two layers of color to red then only it will be more effective. Here the upper part is quite bright, so I've just added white to it. And I'm just applying it on the above portion of the body. Painting looks quite difficult, but it's not so difficult if you follow each and every step of my painting and you can easily respite. You just need to follow these steps and you will be there with that beautiful. What does statute painting? Just you can see I've added a little bit of orange to red and I'm just trying to blend both of them. Deciding the colors is very important part that which color you have to use when. It's very important part of the painting to decide which color to use. Just doing the neck area gave the lines are not visible. We can do it again. The blocking is more important. So you can see your the middle portion is bright, the upper portion is dark, and the lower portions also dark. This is how we have to do the entire painting. Once you are done with the blocking, make sure that dry to blend the color three of the colors properly, then it will be more effective. Now the lower portion, same color. You how opaque the color is when you add white to it. In the middle, I've added a little bit of yellow to it so as to give a nice contrast to it. Adding a little bit of yellow in between also, because it is quiet, shiny like a metal. Now let's add a little bit white and lemon yellow mix and create that line, which is joining the hands. Line, which is shining. And this is also quite bright. It's not completely white, so I've just added little bit of lemon yellow, just trying to match the colors. And now again, little lighter version of the color by adding burnt sienna, raw sienna and burnt umber. Just blocking the hands. You can see I'm using very less amount of water, just my brushes wet and painting is completely row. I haven't used much of water to it because I want to pick a color. I'm just trying to create. That white portion, little bit more white, more bright because it's quite visible. Bright. Now, for blending this, I'll be using my blender brush, which is from Princeton. It's very nice brush. I've just wet the brush, remove extra water and just trying to blend both the colors. Just remove that extra gallery and then again start blending. It. Lets very nice blender brush from Princeton. Even for any landscape painting or any portrait painting where there is better blending is required. These blender brush plays a very important role. Both if you don't have that blender brush, you can use your thick round brush and use the same technique of blending that does that take round brush should be synthetic. Year again, I'm just blending the colors. So the outer portion of the hand is quite dark and as it goes inside it's quite light. You can see here also I'm using the same filbert brush. And I'm just repeating the technique of blocking and blending. Trying not to split the colors outside that boundary. Doing it slowly. You can see just adding a little bit of white to the scholar, how the color value changes. It becomes quite bright and opaque. White plays a very important role to it. Slowly just mixing the colors. Same thing I'm doing here is adding a little bit of white and yellow in-between. The blending, which I have done. On the lower hand area, that is, on the upper hand area will be doing the same thing on the upper hand. Because this is also quite shiny. Bright. Again, I'm adding the lighter version and then I'll blend it with the blender brush. Dustin, enjoy painting. Suppose if the color is dried up and it's not blending, then you can add same color to the same area, same amount of lighter version color, and then against dad blending it. Now let's do that bit of blocking width liner brush. Here. I've just taken my liner brush. And when I, when you are doing any fine line thing, just make the color a bit lit off. Liquid form. Then only you will be able to create fine lines. If you are using thick rock color and trying to draw fine lines, it's not possible. So make that colored little bit fluid. And then tried to create nice smooth lines. Whenever you're drawing any portrait or any three lines or anything, just try to make that color fluid and then try to create fine lines. I'm just lining the whole structure, just outlining it with the black. You can see the size of brush, which I am using your 00. It's very fine. And it's very ten so that you can easily draw fine lines to it. If the colors are coming out, just paint that with black. That's it. Try to take your own time and do it very slowly. If you see that the lines are not coming straight, it's fine. You can always redo that. You can see. I'm just blogging it with black because I don't want that portion be visible. I'm just covering that area with black because the background is also black fluids fine. You can use that black color just outlining the whole structure so that it's easy for me to paint also. Now the drawing, the lines off the clot. Now lining the neck area. Just fine lines you need to create. Whenever you are doing any portrait painting and requires a lot of time and it's really very time-consuming. You have to be in a really refreshed mode and have to have a lot of patients while doing it. You can take small breaks and have a cup of coffee or tea, whatever you want. Listen to music and do it slowly. For sure, your painting will come up really well. At the end, there are some fine, uh, designs which are created on the clot. So I'm just creating, just designs, some round shape. Somehow from shape designs are there. Gradually, gradually we are coming to the portrait painting part. One portion at a time. I haven't touched the phase part yet. I'm still doing the body part only. 6. Detailing Of The Lower Body: Hello friends, welcome back. Now the background blocking is done. We will start with the detailing. The brush I'm using here as the British blistered brush off size two. And I'm just mixing white and yellow, too wet, very little amount of color. And I'll be just dabbing my brush, the tip of the brush very lightly on the area which I have to highlight. First, I'm highlighting that area which is joining the hands and the body. And then just highlighting the portions which I have already highlighted with the yellow. As you can see. Just dabbing my brush very softly, very gently. You don't have to press your brush very hard otherwise that texture detail will not come up very lightly and gently. You have to apply the pressure. Same technique I am doing. The above portion also of the hand, which I have already highlighted with the white. And on top of it I'm just creating some textures. And I'm also spreading some textures, either of the sides also, so as to give a nice effect will be doing to the body part. C. I'm just dabbing my brush very lightly. And you don't have to take a lot of colors to it. And this brush is completely dry without any water. And I'm just using that color, take color and I'm just dabbing my brush very lightly. You can see that small dots are appearing. This gives a very nice texture when you are doing any portrait or any. Even these textures can be used in landscapes also creates a very nice and just take look to it. Just highlighting it with more of white. Now, I'll be adding little bit of orange to it. Let's orange and a little bit of raw sienna. And I'm just removing excess of colors and I'm just trying to create same texture, which I have done with the previous white and yellow color. You don't have to use too much of colors, otherwise the whole texture technique will get spoiled up. You have to use it very small amount of color and only the tip of the brush. You have to dab just the tip of the brush and very gently. And same color I'm using for the hand area also *******. Joining the body part. Just light pressure and small dots are getting created. You can see I'm not covering the entire area. I'm just using small amount of area and just scattering up so that it looks different, different varieties of colors come up. Now have taken black, simply raw black, little amount and I'm just dabbing it. If you think you have quite a lot of Mount of color on your brush, just remove it by dabbing it on your palette and then try it on your painting. Just creating small textures to it. Clean. This brush creates a very nice effect. When it comes to any landscape painting or any rejects your painting does brush plays a very important rule whenever you are creating any textures. In fact, in portraits also, it gives a very nice, It gives a very nice texture to the whole portrait painting, as you can see here. This is quite a hard brush, which gives very nice texture on the canvas. Just creating lots of layers of textures so that different varieties of colors come up. When you see the painting. Just giving it a little realistic and rustic look. You can say. Now again, taking these yellow color, this lemon yellow and White mix and just very gently creating textures. These textures you can also use for creating classes. When you are painting any grass texture you can always use this texture also gives a very nice look, realistic look to it. You can see I'm just adding small amount of yellow also do that portion. Whenever you are creating these textures, please don't take too much amount of colors and your brush has to be completely dry without any water, then only that texture will come up. Otherwise your whole painting will spoil up if the brush is wet and you're using wet colors. So the color has to be also dry and your brush has to be also dry. Now taking little white and adding on the top of it because it is quite bright and I want that bright look to come up. All you can see we're getting closer to that painting and the textures are coming up very nicely. I hope you guys also enjoying it when you are in the process of painting. All let's use a liner brush for creating the lines. Just taking black, that is fluid black. And the lines which are not visible, just creating those lines so that if the colors have come out, you can always cover it with black. Just creating those borderlines. Now the neck lines just making it dark. Now, there's a white added under the black, so I'm just adding a little bit of white toward whenever you are doing any detailed painting, you have to make sure that it will take almost one or 1.5 hours to complete this painting. It's not necessary that you have to complete it in just one day. In one hour. You can take two days, three days, four days. It depends upon how much diamond, how much patience you have for doing these paintings. Don't be in a hurry. Take your time, take 34 days, and do it thoroughly and patiently. This painting I've taken two days to complete this painting. I haven't completed in just one day. I took two days and all. And then I completed his painting. But first before that I made another painting. Before doing this. That also took time. So whenever you are doing any realistic detail painting, it takes time. If you're not confident on doing on the canvas. So first try it on your notebook or small notebook, and then try it on a bigger Canvas. This, I have done it in a small canvas, but you can always do this in a bigger Canvas and you'll see the look, it will look amazing. Just outlining the hand part with white color. I don't want the complete line, that straight line and just it's not completely white. There are some white, some black. When I'm creating those lines, I haven't used much of water to it. Just my brush is wet, but the color is but the color is not wet. It's almost the same color which I am using just my brush is wet. You can see those dry brush patterns are coming up. That is, the line is not completely white, some are black, some are white. Now with my round brush, just that this is also a brush, still round brush. I'm just highlighting the hand part which is white. This hand part is I'm just highlighting it with white and just giving a little bit off dots. I'm using your round brush because you can see it's very narrow. Nfl use the flat brush. It will not come up nicely. That's why I have used the small round Bristol brush. This almost it's complete. And now we will do just the outlining off the area. Whatever is outside, whatever colors are coming out, I'll just paint it with black. I hope you guys are enjoying this beautiful painting of Buddha. And if you are painting is to share your project works and also share your projects work on my Instagram that is more in the art gallery. I'd love to see. They're also now are. Finally the lower part is done, we'll do with the face part and the turbine part. 7. Detailing Of the Head: Hello friends. Welcome back. Now, we are done with the lower part. Now we'll start with the turban part. That is the spot. So first we'll be using this just still brush. I'm just cleaning my brush and just trying to dry off the brush with my tissue paper and just dabbing little bit white and black color. More of black and white. Then just creating small textures on the urban area. Just creating small, small textures. Now using my liner brush, be just creating that black details. But before that there is a small area which is left black, so I'm just covering it with the same color. I think it's more black. Just trying to cover that area and also outlining the outer area. Also, Wednesdays outlining is done. We'll be doing the beat with the same brush. These are all small, small dots, which I'll be creating. These dots you can also create with round brush also. But I felt more easy to do with this liner brush and try to create a little bit bigger circles. And as we go down, it becomes smaller. The hole, the gray area we'll be covering like this small dots. It will move in the same shape like the Durban shape is like that oval shape. The dots also will be of the same. Hi, I really enjoyed this painting a lot. I hope you guys also enjoying it. Because when I first painted it, I was not sure whether this output will come or not, but with the colors and the texture, the final output was really amazing. I really loved it, so I total sharing you with you-all. I taught to create this class. Earlier. I was thinking of creating some other class, but when I created this portrait, so I thought why not to share this with the entire world? I thought of creating this as a class for you guys. As you have seen in most of my classes, I think I've almost 14 to 15 classes will end all our nature related. But I am really truly inspired with Woodstock readings and beliefs. And I truly believe when you share more, you get more and you learn more from it. If you guys are doing this painting, please do share your reviews about it, how it was, and how I can improve more on it. You can see that I'm moving the dots, like the turbine shape. How determinants shape like that. We will only I'm moving, I'm creating the dots. Finally, the dot part is done. And after that, we'll create again small dots on the top of those black dots but with less lighter color that is almost grayish color on the just below part. To give it a nice look and texture. I'm not covering the entire black door, I'm just putting it below to give it a nice shadow look to it. Whenever I do all these types of paintings that are more realistic form, I end up doing it. Natalie Morris level little more is left. It's never ending. I almost see. Okay, this should be done to, that should be done that is not perfect. This happens when you are doing this, these kinds of painting. That'll get this as left. There should be like this. But then needs to be one-stop. Just highlighting the adrian just random small, small white dots in-between. I'm just putting the top part with the lemon yellow color. This is just lemon yellow and white mix. I'm just outlining it. And then creating those thick lines which are off the shape of the same Durban, you can say the ground. Sorry, I could not record the palette work here because suddenly my camera gods switched off. So I'm just using that white and lemon yellow color. That's it. Lead the top and the bottom part is done. And now we will start with the face part. So let's start with our next section. 8. Face Detailing Part One: Hello friends, welcome back. Now let's start with main part that is the face. Here. I'm using my liner brush. I'm just painting that I area which I have already drawn it. Just completely black can always alter the shape of the eye when you are painting it. Now, taking my color that is raw sienna, burnt umber mixed. I'm just adding water. It's getting dried up because it is acrylic, you know, just covering the ear part. You can see I'm using my liner brush because it's very ten pattern, very narrow area. So I don't want the colors to come outside. That's why I'm using your D liner brush. Suggest adding little more of bond Dumbo, because the above part is little bit darker in shade. Just adding a little bit more of that bond amber. Just blocking the years. Same blocking am doing for the other ear as well. You're actually, there's a little bit off for shape, which I'll alter your actually the ears are little bit connected. Some just trying to connect with those small fine line to it. Very narrow portion which is visible for that tier. I'm just trying to give it a shape. You can see why here I'm using the liner brush. That's quite a lot of PTEN area which needs to be covered. Using the white to give a little bit soft highlights and details to it. I'm just outlining it with white color a little bit off. Details also, I'll add over you a completely covering the entire ears because the above part is a bit dark and the lower part has been bright. So I'm just covering the lower part, but little bit of white highlights. Just outlining that. Here also, I'm using a completely the color. It's not much a waterway are just the brushes wet and the color is wrong completely. That draw color. Not a single drop of water is in the color so that it gives a nice dry touch to it. Does dry technique. Stake lemon, yellow and white mix and cover the area which is above the lips. It is quite shiny, so I'm just covering it with white and a little bit of yellow. Using same color doing the iPad ports outlining the outer area of the eye. Then adding the two yellow, again the same outer area. It's not the hybrids, the outer area which is above the eye. You can see the eyelashes. Just adding again. This is again my filbert brush, but off bigger size, I have used here. Just adding yellow to the corners. And then as we move forward, we'll add little raw sienna and black mix. Then we'll blend mode the colors. If you are using pick colors, you can easily blend both the colors because it will want to drive fast. And you can blend the colors, but if you're using ten colors, you will not be able to blend the colors. Dry to use thick colors when you are doing this type of blending. So I'm just using my blender brush to blend board the colors. This iPad, it's in-between that is very shiny, so I'm just putting that yellowish part in-between. And on board this side it is quite dark. Store just applying raw sienna over there. And they're also blend mode the colors. But my blender brush, It's more bright, so I'm just adding more of white too wet. Just taking the blender brush and trying to blend the colors. Whenever you are using any blender brush. That brush also has to be dry. It. You have to put the brush in water and then soak it off with the tissue paper. And then the brush needs to be completely dry when you're touching it with hand. Just outlining those Ariane, just making it more provide quite bright. Just mixing the color and just removing the excess of water from the brush. Then again highlighting that nose area with white color. Then the eyebrows with white and lemon yellow mix. You can see how that dry brush effect is coming up when you are drawing the lines, it gives a nice texture to the painting. Again, taking raw sienna. I'm just blocking the area below the eyebrow. Just taking quite a lot of Mount of color and I'm just blocking that portion. It's quite dark, so I'm just adding little bit of black to it. Just covering that area. Also denote spot. Now again, taking a little bit too wide and this burnt sienna and this is quite bright color this side, which is the cheek area, you can say beside the nose anti cheek part. It's quite bright colors, so I'm just adding texture to it. This is just all dry colors which I'm using you, you can see this whole areas quite bright. Now again yellow. And the other side also lying below the eyes. Then again, taking one CNI and black mix and just covering the nose part. Just taking again a bit more of black and brown sienna and just covering the nose area. Phase part is quite complicated when you are doing small paintings. Same color. Again, I'm using for the other area below the eyebrow. Now, taking a little bit more of yellow and just covering that area. Now, let's take black. Create the outline of the face first. Before doing that just bite which is coming on the eyes. I'm just covering that with the black. Again, taking black, which is liquid form. Just outlining the face. Fees outlining is very important because this only gives the structure to the phase. Now let's do D dealings. 9. Face Detailing Part Two: Hello friends, welcome back. Finally, our last part of the painting as left. So let's start with the facial detailing. So again here I'm using my bristle brush and we'll be creating some details. Again. I've taken some orange and white and raw sienna. And creating the textures. I'm just outlining the outer area of the face first. And then we'll start with the GX. Same technique you have to use your, you have to use completely dry brush. And the colors are also completely dry, no water in it. And then same dabbing technique you have to use. Very less amount of color you need for this texture detailing. You don't have to use lots of color. Otherwise you'll create patches. Same texture I'm creating on the cheeks. That is why Dan lemon yellow mixture. The area which I have already painted there, I'm just creating the texture over there. A bit on the above part of the eye, bro. Just highlighting the areas which are already I've painted with lighter color. The same highlights I'm doing on the above part of the head, that is the forehead. I'm just using that same yellow and white to make sure it's more of yellow and less of white color. Area is quite shiny and I'm using yellow and white mix. Now there is an area which is quite shiny, so I'm using quite a lot of white and a little bit of yellow. And I'm just dabbing my brush over there. See it's quite bright color. So there's more of white and less of yellow to it. I'm just adding little bit of texture on the other side also, that it looks in a blended form. Doing a little bit more patch of white over there. The bit on the cheek side. Again using same lemon yellow and creating texture on the other cheek side. You can see how nice and texture look is coming up. Starting more of yellow to it. Dof, more of texture on the body part. Phase plays a very important role when you are doing any portrait paintings. So this is the main part of the painting which needs to be taken care a lot. So take your time and do it slowly. I'm already in love with this painting. I hope you guys are too. And I'm glad that I could share this video to you guys. Just doing a little bit details. Finally, we'll be done with this painting. And the last bonus part is the framing, which I'll be telling you. How to frame and protect your paint. Painting from dust. Just use raw sienna and a little bit black fur covering the lips spot and will be outlining it with black and giving some highlights with the white. You can see these liner brush plays a very important part in painting the details. So make sure that you use right liner brush. Whenever you were doing any lining part, the color has to be in the fluid form. Now again, a little bit white and yellow mix and just highlighting the lips part. Just giving little bit of shape to the nose. Highlighting the nausea Rialto. Again, just giving the shape to the nose with the black color. Adding a little bit of white highlight to the nose. Just taking more of white and darkening that area. We are almost done with the painting. Just the bench part is left. I'm just trying to make the nose perfect. Outlining the lips spot. Adding little more white to the underwrite area. More white to the above part. Just doing the final details which are missing, which I feel it needs to be done. More. The eyebrow, just outlining that same white area with black outline. Now using my brush to brush, completely dry brush, I'm just taking a little bit of white, yellow mix and just a little bit of brown. Just highlighting. What I'm doing is just creating little bit of textures. Moving the brush horizontally. Again, a little bit of orange and raw sienna, and adding little bit of textures to that. Just outlining. Finally, we almost done, I hope you guys enjoyed this painting. And the last part of the painting, which has left as the framing part. That is not necessary. If you want to frame, you can frame or you can varnish it to protect your frame from dust. This is almost done. We'll start with the last bonus lesson that is D, framing one. 10. Bonus Lesson: So finally, painting is complete. So this is the last part of the painting. And here I will show you how to frame the paintings. So this is five to seven inches of painting and this frame is eight into ten inches, we'll size and the inner bag border is five into seven, will give a nice white border to it. So let's first take out this pen. But my knife, because it's quite tight so I'm digging out with my knife. You can remove it from any sharp tool you, if you have this frame I have bought from Amazon, you can easily get it from amazon menu search frame of sizes as much. I'm just taking out the entire Penn. After that, I'm just removing that board. There. I think three layers. This is the pin from which B2B hanging the frame. This is the first and this is just the details. This is the frame that is the border. You can say. This is the acrylic glass. And it has tapes on both the sides so that this class is protected. It's not a glass, it is an acrylic sheet. You have to take it out board the sheets nicely. This is completely transparent. If you are not framing it, you have to one niche, the painting, otherwise, you will not be able to protect your painting. If you are not varnishing your painting, you can frame it like this. And it looks really nice when you frame the painting. So I've just put that acrylic glass and then this frame, there's dense painting on top of it. After that, I'll just put the masking tape on all the four sides so that the painting does not move and get displaced off. Just fixing it with the masking tape. On. The four corners, have just fixed it. And after that, I'll just check it out if it's OK. You're not. And then I'll put this board. It's not. So that pen is getting stuck in-betweens are just need to fold it more so that it gets inside nicely. Just you need to fix it by just removing those pins more. Just need to press it tightly. And then just close all those pins with your hand or with any knife if you want. You can also put tape on all the four sides if you want. This is all done. This is the painting and this is how it looks. I hope you enjoyed this painting. I love to see your projects and thank you for watching this class.
