2. Influences: I was born and
raised in Venezuela, has always been part
of a beam from singer, dancer, writer,
and now I paint as a full-time professional
artist, sees a little girl. I've been influenced by numerous artists and wondering how they could do what they do. And I've realized that
for me to be able to understand that first
Most answer one question, what R means for me
in after so long, I finally came with the
answer to that question. For me are what moves me
in, what inspires me? Nowadays I live, they are flowed through me and let me
speak his language. My art and creativity has
been heavily influenced by greatest artists like
Salvador Dali and he's 1931, the persistence of time. And Frida Kahlo and her
two-three years in 1939. My favorite authors of
all time or Allan Poe and audio burning in a
huge fan of fantasy. That is why my
paint is always go. It had helped me
create my old girls. I didn't find my style as a fantastic linguist makeup
with a touch of surrealism. Many years challenging my art. Whether coming out of
my own choreography is writing a book or singing. Well for quite some time, painting has been how I invite people to get to know
and understand my, my paint is in a way made me because I call my soul
and feelings into them. But at the same
time they gave me strength in the course to
show way up to the wall. Now you know a little
bit about me and the influences that helmet is covering my phone and
start as an artist. First lesson is make a list of all the components
on your paintings. See you then.
3. Project: For this last project
and following all the steps that will be
given to you in this class, you will come up with
your own painting. I'll choose this project because the idea is that you
follow along and apply all the steps
you'll learn throughout the course so you
understand our workflow. There will be key for you to work efficiently and
more professionally. Before diving into the
mainland and make sure you review the checklist and
materials provided to you. It will be a great
idea to have it handy to work and
finish your project. Remember, this system is about effectiveness
in your workflow. Don't forget to upload
your project to the class forum so I can give you any feedback
on your work. I'm really looking forward to seeing what you find
that project will be. You are officially ready
to start learning how to combine analog needle
tools to create your own. Find that the painting to
you in the next lesson.
4. Make a List of the Components for your Painting: Welcome to Lesson one. The goal of this lesson is to take all the ideas
for your painting. Now it's time to brainstorm and write or sketch your idea. For this lesson, you
just need a notebook and a pencil or pen, right? Every component
of your painting, don't worry, you can
always adjust this to go. It is just for you
to start filtering those thoughts and
have them in order. This will be your
starting point. It will help you figure it out how your painting
will look and feel. This will make your
workflow easier. Come up with a prompt. If you can come up with
a prompt right away, just write down
what works for you. For me, I was imagining a girl swimming in an
underwater setting. What he said, the ocean, She's swimming in this guy free. She doesn't feel the
pressure to be underwater. With these from I have my powder directly on
my painting will take. If you already have your prompt, you can feel the
next steps easier. If not, these tests will
help you come up with one. Decide who the main subject
of your painting will be, n how it will be positioned. Are there any secondary
or supporting elements? Think about the background or setting with your
subject will be, it is a fantasy land with
trees and for your colors, is it in the ocean
or in this guy? Said the mood of your
painted, decide on colors. If it is a fantasy painting, will be filled with red and
green and blue elements. If it is an underwater pain, you would be light
blue or dark blue. If it is in the sky, you
want cotton candy clouds. Just write what resonates with the message you want to convey. Once you come up
with everything, now is a good time to decide
the size of your Canvas. I will be using a 24 by 48 ", but you can go as
small as an eight by ten so you don't
feel overwhelmed. Remember, you can always change at or take out some
elements as you go. So don't feel that
you need to stick to your initial ideas
to the very end. And I do intuition flow as
you work in this project, the art, speak for you. In the next lesson, we'll
be diving into the web and use resources to find reference
photos. See you then.
5. Use Free Resources to Find Reference Photos: In this lesson, I will show you what sources I used
for my paintings. There are multiple
places that can help you get your pictures and
reference photos prompt, but I like to use pixels. Pixels is a community
where you can find high-quality,
royalty-free stock images. In copyright-free pictures,
stock photos and videos. You can use everywhere. If you take and
make a collage of many pictures and translate
them into your painting. The result will be your boys. Would have you want to
give credit who does the facilitates the pictures
we use for you? Feel free to tag them that
will help them as creators. Feel what inspires you. What images get closer to the one that you
have in your mind. Just let it flow. Remember, the final product
would be unique to you. So feel free to put
together various images. You can also make a
pixels collection. We're all your images will be. In the next lesson. We'll go to Photoshop to combine and
make your final product, getting ready to be
translated to the canvas. See you then.
6. Use Photoshop to Bring Together the Elements of your Painting: In this lesson, I
will walk you through my Photoshop processes to come up with my
final composition. Size your Canvas accordingly, the one you would use. Once I have all my
images I downloaded on my computer and important
to follow this process, we will hand to handle
your imagination, to see when you're
painting will look like around with your pictures
and start placing them. See what works for
you, what feels right. This will be the final step to try to come up with something
that works for you. Remember, you don't have to
use all the features that you have that we just use the
right ones for your painting. Now that you have your painting, he spent two off on your campus.
7. Learn the Different Methods to Translate your Project to your Canvas: In this lesson, I will
go through some of the many tracing methods
available for you. Free hand. This method is for
those who can draw. So if you feel like you can do this free hand and you can
absolutely use this approach. Rough hydrocarbon paper. This method is simple. Just bring your image and
place it in the paper between the image and the
crown best interests your image on the Canvas. Creating your own
graphite paper is methyl. This is a similar approach
to the graphic Baker. You just use graphite
or charcoal to cover the bathroom paper and then you can trace the
image on your campus. Tracing apps, there are many different
craziness out there. Some of them are free,
some of them are paid. I personally have
that bean shape, which is a bait, and he works
wonders on small projects. And finally, you have a project. They can range $35-300. They aren't useful
for writing on a white canvas like
the one I'm using. At the end of the day, you will consider what works for you, what you can afford,
or just what you have. In the next lesson, we will
be tracing our campus.
8. Trace your Canvas: Having learned some of the many tracing methods we
have available, now it's time to
grade your Canvas. I don't need my freehand
it ahead of time. And I darken the
lines so it'll be easy to see them, they baked. In the next lesson,
we will be moving from V dot one.
It's time to paint.
9. Preparing your Canvas: In this lesson, we'll be
using acrylic on our campus. I use Liquitex basics, put any acrylic paint. Although my background
will be blue, I'll be done in my canvas with a combination of
rotten, burnt sienna. I already have my chemistry, so I just fix it so the graphene on my canvas
does not leave or erase. Well, I'm applying the paint. You can draw your camera
with a black fine market. Don't worry about the dark lines that will be covered with paint. For this process, you
will need to call it a floor because it can
get wet and messy. I have a show occur.
We have my easel, a late some overwriting
the floor for safety. Now that my canvas histone over using a hairdryer to
dry acrylic paint. You can also wait for the
paint to dry on its own. Well, you'll have to make
sure that the paint is completely dry before you
start applying your oils, which will be our final layer.
10. Apply Oils to Bring your Painting to Life: Welcome to the final lesson. For this lesson, we will be applying oil paint
to our Canvas. Just like a coloring book. Feel free to paint and let
the painting speak to you. You can absolutely do
this in the critics, but oil paints is richer and
more vibrant and acrylics, it really will
give your painting that proportional finished book. They are easier to handle than acrylics because
there's no drying time. You will have more time to
blend and work on your paint. So now my paint is dry and I'm ready to do to
apply the oils. I have. This are all my oil supplies. I have terpenoids, which
is an oil solvent, and it's autumn Lex
is really good. I have got kid used as a medium. We have liquid. Liquid is for defining details on the pained
whenever we do hair whiskers and all that fine detail
now we have to do I have a variety of oil paints. I use the Master's
Touch oil paint. What I have to use
to clean rags, clean and dry our brushes. And I like to use gloves. Then I have a
variety of brushes. I always go with a flat brushes, but I have a variety here. I have slanted brushes. I have filled or
brushes, flat brushes. I have flat brushes. And then I have a fun
Rosh, small, big, medium. Now that I show you only use, we're ready to apply the oils. This is my painting red. It just needs to try. Don't
forget to sign yours. I'm looking forward to
see how you apply all that you have learned here
to create your own project.
11. Conclusion: Now you're ready to create a unique piece that resonates with you
from beginning to end. These skills will help you
to always come up with a unique artwork that will broaden your
horizons scenario. With the helmet towards the modern technology has to walk. It is a simplified approach
to acrylic paints drawing in Photoshop elements
that you would use to leave your overall mark. Thank you again for being here and take the time
