1. 0 Introduction: Okay. Hello, hello, painting friends. Thank you so much
for joining me. In this video,
today we are going to do another beautiful
painting of flowers. This one is a tule flower was, and it's a nice, gorgeous and colorful
painting in acral. So first of all, we introduce the material that we
are going to use and then start with the quick
drawing of the shape of tulips, different colors,
make it simple, and then draw the quick
shape of the walls, and then adding the
background and more details, making the texture of it. And then adding more colors
to the flowers to make different values for that and make it more
strong and beautiful. Then adding more details
on the leaves and shape the glass flower was. At the end, we know how to paint this beautiful painting
with acrylic and enjoy it. Join me for the process.
Thank you so much.
2. 1 Material's you will need: Thank you so much, everyone
for joining me today, we are going to start mentioning
about the materials that we would like to work with. And that's a beautiful, um, actually flour flower was. So it's colorful roses and
tulips and everything. I would start with as
much as color we have. Doesn't need to have all
the colors like purple, pink, red, yellow,
orange, and everything. You can make some of them
if you have primary color, which is yellow, red and blue. But just in case I mentioned
about all these colors here, I have primary
color, which is red, yellow, and the yellow can be warm or cool and the blue color. Even the blue as well, can be warm or cool or dark and light. But I would show you
some different options. Like I have like I
have this erleum blue, which is dark sorry,
this erleum blue, which is light turquoise blue, and what's this we call? It's left fata blue. Yeah, fatala blue. Most of the time it's better
to use ultramine blue, but fatala blue is the same. It's very good to use it. And then if you mix
this color together, it gives you different options. Like Okay. If you use this color, give you different options. These are primary color. If you mix blue with
yellow, you will get green. You can make the green
lighter with white, you can make the green
darker with like blue color, warm brown color like that. If you mix these two
colors together, like red and yellow, you will reach the orange color. If you add more yellow, the orange move
to yellow orange. If you add more red, you orange move to
reddish orange, which is darker orange. The other things, if we mix
these two colors together, we will get the purple color. If we add more blue, the purple, more bluy and more
like a cool purple. If we add more red, it move to Burgundy
purple color. But for purple, I
recommend to use the pink color because red and pink are in
the same family. But when we mix these
two colors together, it give us very
nice purple tone. I have already the
purple too as well. If you don't have it, it's okay. You can mix it. If not, you can use
right away the purple. Even I have light pink. But if you don't have it, it
doesn't matter with white, you can mix it red and reach the very nice
and light pink color. We have different option to use. We have actually green that doesn't need to mix
yellow and blue together, and we have black to make
the colors darker or make the grayish tone color by mixing white and
black together. These are about the
colors that we have. The bunch of colors just
put it here to show you how they can manage the
color mixing and everything. So Okay. I just would like to
put the colors aside and show you the other stuff, which is the brushes. So we have different
size of brushes. It can be round shape, like this pointy round shape, or it can be filbert like
this two filbert brush. If you see these are
very edge on top. It's very edgy on top. They have nice and
warm and circly edge, which is lovely to use. I recommend to use
this because it can make the petals
very beautiful. It can easily work with. But depending on the
size of your canvas, you can move on with
the bigger size. Even you can use flat
brush in larger size. I can show you this
kind of brushes. This is really bigger size, so it's easy to use
and cover the surface, or even this one is okay too depend which part you
would like to work on it. Then I prefer to mix my
paint with palette knife, which is lovely to use. These are about the
brushes and palette knife. We have a glass of
water to mix with our brushes, cleaning them, and then even add on top of our surface of the paint to
have a run soil of paint, and this is palette paper. So I would use palette
paper pad for some reason because it's really helpful
that just one paper sheet, after you finish everything, you just need to put it in a garbage and you don't
need to clean it after, which is so hard to
clean the acrylic. Acrylic is glue inside, stick to any surface. After you mixing everything, it's easier to get rid of it and you don't need
to clean it after. It's work, it's easier
to go with that one and then Okay. And then what we need to
have the important thing, which is the surface that
we are going to work on it. It can be canvas,
it can be wood. And for today, I'm going to
work on this mason wood. And the brand is a polon. I just add a gesso to tricot
layer of gesso on it, and then it's ready to use. Even for acrylic
paint doesn't need to have to be worried about
the gesso and everything, you can just right away work
on the surface of the wood. You don't have to add the
gesso on top. That's okay. Don't be worried because it's acrylic, stick to any surface. If it was oil, I
recommend to add gesso, but I had already
this one to use it. Everything is around.
Let's start our painting. I
3. 2 Setup the Palette & Start Flowers: Okay, now, I add all my
paint on top of the palette, and regularly, I'm not using as much as
paint that I add now. It's really colorful palette, but it would be nice because
I have lots of paint on it. I would like to make
the flower was a little bit more colorful
because of that. I add lots of paint on it, and we are going to
start with the flowers. So you can jump on those, and without any mixing, you just apply with
the pure colors. So it would be okay because of this colorful palette
that we have. Okay, now I grab my small
size of the brush like this. And even you can go a little bit larger if you
like, that's fine. And I would go with
the focal point. I would show that my rose. I have a bunch of flowers here, which is the roses and the
tulips and everything. So I would like to
show the round shape of rose here in the center, and that's a bigger
one that I would show. And then the rest, it can be covered around that. So maybe better to be
with a bigger size. I would show in yellow. So yellow can have a
little bit orangy tone, can have a little bit
warm reddish tone. So I go with this,
mix a little bit pink reddish pink with
yellow and give me a nice orangy tone for the
base, which is so good. I imagine that's a
good size for my was, and the top part is
covered with the flower. So mentioned here,
here, here and here. For the size of the
rose flower I have, I just can't make
the circle for that. I just try to make it as
much as simple that we can, and that's like a drawing. So you can draw the paint
even without any pencil, just like with paint with
pure paint like that. Apply with your colors and with some circly brush stroke or rose is show that
come out like that, adding some red on it, add some randomly petals on it. I will fix it, don't worry, this is a quick drawing and place all the flowers
beside each other. Randomly, I'm going to add a little reddish color
between the yellowy color. That this is one a Rose. I have just yellow
color in my brush. So I would cover all the colors I need
with the same brush, which is yellowy orange. And I'm going to add
another tulip besides this, and the tulip is like a is
not a it's like a ball. Yeah. This looks like
a long shape of ball. It's oval shape like this, look like an egg, and one
side connect like that, the other side like this. This is just a simple
shape of tulip like that. Even I can show that
you can see here inside and then the
other side of tulip. A little bit, make it open. Open it up like that and
then add the other side. And for the other
side, I'm going to add a little reddish
color in between because I don't want to cover everything with just yellow. It doesn't show me then the details and then
make sure to have napkin all days beside yourself
to clean your brushes. And I'm going to add, you see that pure paint. So far, I'm not adding
any water in my brush. That's it. That's a quick
drawing of flowers. Don't worry, we will cover
it for the next layer. It's just the first layer to place everything
around each other. And because that's
the walls of flour, so I would like to add
as much as flour I can beside each other and then add some greeny
color in between. So beside this, I can go
with just a pinky color. I don't want to cover
everything with the yellow. But one rose I would show, which is smaller
and from the side. So like that. This stage look like drawing. Even you can just easily add and because of
the acrylic paint, you can easily just
edit every time. I just cover with this
color a little bit and add the yellow here, it's very fast. Give me time to work on
top again and again. This is helping me to
get rid of the white of canvas or white of the wood
texture and everything. It's easier to cover. I think we are fine
with the yellow, maybe one more here, maybe I can add it. I can add and then cover
more pinky color around. That's just a tulip. I go with the shape of tulip. I would show inside the
tulip because of that, I go red colour to add
inside, and that's it. This is another simple
shape of flour. Clean the brush, you can just put into the water like this, clean it, and then squeeze it to the edge and
then wipe it with napkin. Like that. Now the brush is clean, ready to move around
for next paint. Now I would go with this. I would add a little bit
light pink with this one, mix together, and
reach another value. That's it. A little more maybe. That's a nice color. So I
would add one rose here. I can face it toward this way. It doesn't matter
which way, actually, you can spread all the
flowers in different angles. In between, you can
bring the lighter pink. But if you don't
have lighter pink, you can mix it with white. So be careful. Always, you have the opportunity to
add the pure white on top. And if I would show the inside, I'm going to add some
darker tone from this way. I'm not worried
because it's okay. It's start to dry and give me chance to apply
with more layers. Yeah, that's it. Use the napkin. From this dark color, I try to bring it higher
like that and it's more look like fading and soften
the edge and everything. Now, I would like to
add more tulip around. So we can start
applying with the pink. I'm going to add one here
in between these two. So the oval shape,
it's easy to do. Imagine some part is
hide under the rows, continue till here, and
then just apply like that. It's a close tulip. It shows close tulip. Even a little brush stroke. Even with randomly touched, you will get the beautiful
texture and design of flowers. Yeah, I like that. I would go one here
and show inside more. I would use this one little
mix with because this is a little darker color that I'm going to bring
it inside this palette. Again, move on with
the oval shape. Be careful not to
lose the size of your v. Just go with
this oval shape, even the center just cover the side of the oval
with the lighter tone. Easier to have an idea and even just round shape the edge. Round shape the edge. The side. The side with the bottom part, I'm going to add
with darker tone. The round I try to add
more lighter tone. And even I can switch
the other brush. Here because I sent for balance. I want to add some balance. Even the blue color, give me some purply tone. You see, when I mix the
blue the pinky color, give me very dark, nice color. If I add the white, you will get the nice purple
color that we have. Such a lovely color. I'm going to use the beautiful
purply color for here. Even we can make
it even lighter, more blue, give me bluey purple. I can a here. First, I go with
both side of petals and then bring the
side like that, and then the other side. And then I can start, apply and approach
some white colour, pure white color on it. That helps my eye to separate
this petal from each other, and that's helped me
to see like that. That is easier. But more details, more
apply of the colors. I prefer to do it for the
next layer a little bit. I just try to build it
right now. That's it. Napkin always help me
to clean my brush, to keep my brush even
clean as much as I can. Because this is a blue purple, so for the darkness, I would add more blue. That's it. The pedals
can move everywhere. You don't have to
bother yourself with the way of
the pedals place. I would add one more here. On that model that I had before, it was oil color painting and I didn't actually bother myself
for the place of each. I just try to place the
flowers everywhere in between. I can do the same
for acrylic as well. White to the center and then the edge is
getting darker, like that. I have the balance
in my painting. I would add one very
light color white, but it has a nice light
purple in it here. I would go like this shape. Such a nice and light
purply tone I have. Even I can go with lighter color as much as I can with the white. I see that it's fade to my background because
the background is white, too, but a little make
it purple to be visible. And you see that with the
movement of my brush stroke, I can build the shape of flowers just like that beautifully. And then where the petals move, like the petals is moving
this way, that way, you can place with the shape with the tip
of your brush and then move it like that to
follow the shape of your petals and the
movement of the petals. So I have as much
as flower, I think. Just one more dark color with
that there. Yeah, one more
4. 3 Painting Green Leaves: Okay. Now we are going to
start with the leaves. I know that it's a vase and
we can place the vase here, but I would add a little
bit leaves first. We have this beautiful
green color now. I can add here would
add a little blue in it to a little change the color. If it's dry, drop of
water can help it. A little move easier. To show you just the red color can make it dark
or a little more. But let me just apply with other green
too because I would show you we can have different green and
that's a sub green color. We can have sub green too. Some green or warm, some green or so
cool. This is warm. I would add a little red in it to make it more warm and dark. I would place some
leaves and stem. I know that we have a here. Imagine before
because it's a glass. I would show that in some
touch of the brightness. But before that, because I don't have any
background color is white. I just try to draw
the shape of here to imagine where should
I place my stem? That's it. I know it's
in blue, shouldn't be. It's a glass, but any
color you can draw, I will show you later how you can make it look like
it was in glass. I would like to make
it a little longer. That's it. I'm going to
use some green color. Cover hole the spar with this green and I would
add as much as leaves I can on the sport like this one leaf come out
bending like that. And the other is just
here and I would separate it with light
and dark from each other. Even I can add yellow white. I already have the
green in my brush, so it gives me or even I
can use the screen too. It shows this one
that the leaves shows it's falling
on top of my walls. Even from this side, I would turn and show the
leaves come out like this. I would add some stem for them. I cover more dark and
light color for my leaves, even change the way like that. I totally depend how
you would like to approach with the leaves. But I would go with
a little warm tone. The reason I add
red and my green because I would make the
sub green a little var. Sub green is a cool green, but red can make
it a little var. Even between all these flowers, I just go with a
very simple shape, the color because I would go to show that these
are the leaves, but there is not
specific leaves here. I just make it green. For the second
layer, when I make all these flowers a
little bit bigger, design it nice and more
like a finishing part, these leaves come out. This green part come out. Doesn't need to be all way
all day long like that. I just add here and there. And then some dark green here, even a little black mix with it to reach darker tone and
now I can go inside the. Like the flat and
straight brush stroke. These look like so
many stem on it. I know it's just one
color now. Don't worry. We will build them. I'm not going to draw them one by one. I just try to cover around
the edge of my was like this. To the end. That's it, and then add a little black to have
some really dark tone. So dark tone, and
then in between, I can bring some lightness as well to separate,
but it's okay. You can just let it dry
and then later add it. Doesn't need to do
everything right away. I just show this
is another stem, come on top of each other. So it's okay. You can do it now or later. The first layer is finished. So we approach for
the first layer, it's okay for the flour was, and then we can let it dry completely and apply
for the next pass. I get dry because I
would add first of all, the background color for
the next pass and then let it again background dry and
then finish our flowers. So far, the base is
finished, and that's it. Thank you so much for
following me so far and let it dry or you can use hair
dryer to get dry faster, and we will back
for another part.
5. 4 Adding the background: Okay. Now, it's still wet, but I would like to
finish the background. You can just leave it
like that and then start working again and
again on the flowers. But I would start
working on a background, and I would change a little bit, make some texture a little
to show what happened. So I would add white color here. I would make it like a grayish color that
not just a gray, like a purply gray,
purply blui gray. The reason I go with flat brush because the tip of flat brush, it's so useful when you
want to cut the edge. So it's so gently, you can just come closer to the flower like that
and then cut the edge, not go inside the leaves and the flowers and
then cover like that. So even if you go inside, it doesn't happen
anything because we will go for the next layer
to finish that. But we will do the background as much
as we can to finish. Because we don't want to touch the background after
we finish the flowers. Because of that, I
would go like that to finish it completely as much as I can and
feel happy with it, and then let it
dry and then apply for the next, which
is the flowers. So I'm going lighter on top. You see here? Darker on the
bottom, lighter on top. Brown is a lovely color. It gives me warm, creamy color, and I already had a nice feeling of green and then the black. So it's lovely color
for the background. Okay. Now, that's it. Then I would go
lighter for the table. Try to mix with white. Sometimes it's better
to mix with palette ne, but during my painting, I sometimes forgot it and try to do everything with just brush. But you know that it's
challenging more. One side is lighter,
one side darker. This side I would go
with lighter tone, try and this side I
would show the shadow. Okay. Give the pain sneaking. Okay. The wall is finished. But this lovely texture, bring it fires visible, this nice texture we have
everywhere. Yeah, I like that. Okay, let it dry. And now I can continue
for the bottom part. I would connect a little bit
this texture toward down. So I'm not just separate
them from each other. This texture be more strong
when it starts to dry, even on palette knife. Just try to make them move
to each other like that. When it start to dry, get harder and harder
and more heavier. Don't worry about the leaves. After it get dry, they
will come on top. So white we need. Or even you don't have to go with palette
knife to make a texture, any kind of tools you have
at home that you feel it's helpful to make a design and texture and your
painting, go for it. It's your masterpiece
and you can do creativity as
much as you can. It's too brown, I need to
bring some cool beside war, which the black color is cool. Look, so I feel that it's fine, maybe some shadow, a little
more we can add too dark. But I would wait get dry. Sometimes after it's
completely dry, we can work again on
top, which is better. Sometimes depend.
I'm okay with it. It shows a lovely
background for my painting. We work and finish
the background. Now we need to wait
the background dry, then move to our flower.
6. 5 Colourful Flowers: A. Okay. Now it's
time for pinky color. It's the same, a color change. I'm going to start with
darker pink at the beginning, apply one brush stroke
with this dark pink. Even dark pink can be
transparent or opaque. I think all these colors that I have in pink is transparent. So under that, it's visible. But that's fine. But this pink, which is opaque,
cover it easily. So I start with this
and do back and forth to let these beautiful petals make. And with this back and
forth that I'm going to do, you can see all
these brush stroke, help the petals be more
look like a reality. Given an acrylic. That's enough. Sometimes one or two rush stroke showed it enough like this. But even if you like
to add more and more, let it a little bit dry. Sometimes it's so
helpful when it's dry and then apply with
a little more colors. I like to play with more values, so a little light color would
be okay to bring on top. That's it. Now switch
the other one. One by one, you can let it finish and apply more and more. But when you would
like to show on a background to come out, you need to make the color moo pack to sit on
the background. So I'm going with
the lighter tone. The end of the flower, which is this bottom part
connection between the stem, and the flower is darker tone, but when it's open it,
it's lighter tone. Like that. I'm not clean my brush and I'm
not move on with the other brush because I would use all the colors I
have at the same time. Light and dark, even they
give me nice result. When I apply like that. Under it is visible and the come which is coming
on top would be nice. It is challenging and
sometimes make it dirty, but the result is beautiful. For this one, again, I start to cover the shape with a little met tone color
red and dark pink to shape it as much as I can. Even the center is
dark. That's it. And then with these
two pink, you see, I just use two different
kind of pink and the red design it like that. I would keep the bottom part it'll be the same color which is dark and even add some
tone around the edge. But this time I'm going to add the white color
because this time I need the white color
to be lighter. The edge of the flower, I would go with lighter
tone, even more. And then when I would go with the light color to the bottom, I try to add less pressure
on my hand and make it a little like smoother to fate. Separate this petal
and we don't come out. Now, finish with this
pinky rosy color, I would add some brush
stroke for the other one, which is this one,
a little pink, light pink I have on my brush, I would add there, and then I like the style
of that already. So a little less I work with it. Try to keep that design. Already, it's beautiful
brush stroke, help me showing that petals
nicely in a nice way. And a nice, transparent, reddish color cover it. Sometimes you don't need to
be perfect on each pedals. Just some brushes
stroke shows that. Most of the time, people scared
to add the colors to make the petals and add some details just with some
brush stroke and that's it. You don't need to make a lot
drawing or details on it. One or two movement
sometimes make it beautiful. Just. We apply with as much as
brushes stro we want, but try not to make it weird. Sometimes it happened. Okay. I'm happy with it, then you
can see if you need to make some really dark color
from the bottom part of the flower and let it come out. Make sure not to go inside the
yellow rose colour flower. Just bring it here. Would
be enough, I think. It's silhouette, but we
will see after it get dry, we need to apply
something more or not. Like that, I would apply one dry brush
stroke and then come out. So we have this purply
left. I have a purple. I have white, so let
it go a little blue, which is good for inside and The shadow, not the
shadow, the dark color. Sometimes inside is dark, sometimes outside it's dark, but for this one,
inside is dark. Even when we are
coming from here up, try to make it dark and
then from the other side, try to make it light and then
blend these two together. When it's wet day,
blend together. Try to shape your brush stroke and move it
like a zigzaggy. It's already made the flower
interesting like that. Then dry brush, it's
helpful to design. Try to make it around.
That's a cool one. I like it. A, Okay. Prefer not to overwork. I think would be
fine. Sometimes it's better to do some
dry brush stroke. You see, I don't
add any water on my brush and try
to use dry brush, that's make a
texture beautifully. And then the same here,
this is more bluey purple, that one reddish purple and
this purple has more red. I'm going to use for this petal. And then make darker this petal from the bottom
and then come higher. You can just let it
go to the background, design it just a little darker. Be careful not to come inside and ruin the
yellow flowers. Okay. I love this drip brush stroke, which is so cool and make
it really look like a pals. Then I would go with
blue, purple, more. A little bit purple. Let it dry at this and apply
with some more texture here. Back and forth, you
can repeat and repeat. If you're not happy with it, then let it Again, cover it with more other colors. So just repeating and repeating. I'm happy with it. I let it dry. So this part, it really
doesn't show anything, just a little purple
between the pinky color. So we can apply with dry brush, just add some brush or stroke. To show this, it's
kind of purple, but hide under these
flowers. And that's it. I can show some leaves
come up for that. Yeah, we're done with
flowers. Hope you enjoy it. That's perfect. Did you enjoy? Awful, yes. Flowers
always lovely to paint.
7. 6 Leaves painting: Perfect. We are
done with flowers. We are done with background. Now it's time for leaves. It's not much need
to do. Just a bit. We can just shape our leafs. We've finished with the paint, we need to add some more paint. I would make some
dark color of green, which is black brown and the green mix with
them together. This color give me
dark dark green. We have mid tone, and then I will mix some
green here with white and yellow to give me lighter tone and warmer
tone and that's it. Okay. So with round brush. Oh, sorry, not round brush. Filbert brush. Shape
it with a tip. One like that. Just
cover the side off. Just you can cover the
part that you already have because we already have
that green under the paint, which is easier to cover
the rest. But be careful. The edge of our vote should
be really clean, perfect. Even I would add on top to
show that this is a vote. But so far, it just covered a little more green,
darker green even. The tip of brush would
be helpful when you are close to the flower in the ps. And randomly add some brush
stroke with lighter color. Even it can dry brush
stroke would be great. Clean it again. It's just back and forth because sometimes we lose a lot of
darkness that we need, so we need to bring them back. Just try to back and forth
with more brush stroke with the green to see. Okay. And even here on top, I can just go with
movement of light and dark but just bring some more action and
beauty or painting. Sorry, I need to add
some darkness too. And pure white color here, make it shiny. That's it. I think we are maybe just
a bit here and enough. Now I would show
that this is the. I know that it's wet, but we need to be a
little careful for that. But with just a pure
color, white and black, make it gray, a little
brown because I would show that this glass
like a grayish color. So it's better to wait get
dry completely sometimes, but you can do it at the
same time too. Here is dry. I'm going to add some more
gently dry brush stroke. When it's dry, it's
easier to cover it.
8. 7 Painting Glass Vase: A. Okay. Now, I would add some just a little bit here to look like that it's a w. And then to show that the
water is placed here, one stroke, maybe the shine. And it come on top of the brown, just a green. You see? And the edge. Even I can
just do the edge like that. Even when it's dry it's
easier because we need some dry brush stroke
to come as a light. And yeah, like this. Even I would add more thickness
here with white color. Which is a little
shine on the glass. And here, to shine on the
glass, shine on the glass. A little try to make
the dry brush stroke. Like this, that
help to be shiny. Yeah. Don't have to have a lot. Already show this is
the shiny glass was. But some dry brush stroke
with the white color, make it more look like the
real glass from the side. You don't have to go
with the straight line, but it's okay to go like this and make sure to
be dry brush stroke. Even the leaves are dry, I'm going with dry brush stroke
on it, which is so cool. I would like to have
some lives here. We're almost done. I hope you enjoy every time
when I finish the painting, I come back again and check,
I need to make it darker. I make it a little bit
darker, little bit lighter. But it's better not to overwork
sometimes it's happen. I think we are done.
We are okay with this. So let me bring
it from the side. You can see the beautiful glass, which is with just some
touch of gray stone, and then dry brush of the light show this
look like a glass, and that's it.
Hope you enjoy it. And that was a
wonderful painting. Hope to see you
next time. And bye.
