Introduction to Procreate and Color: Hello everyone and welcome to this tutorial. Today we're going to learn about the color Foundation, the color wheel, and color functions. All of the knowledge here is available in your resource packet. So please download that. It will have all the information and you can message me with any questions. We'll get to know complementary colors, the glow, and how influential colors are in pictures, and how colors can make the picture attractive. Also, learn about what colors are appropriate to use besides other colors. That's contrasting and complimentary colors. So to start, we're using the Procreate application. So open the application. If you want, you can follow along with me. You can pause the video, write down, speed it up whichever works best for you as we go along. When you open Procreate, the gallery page will be opened and you're able to open your projects from here. So you can see and have all projects that you've worked on the floor on this page. Using your fingers, you can zoom in and zoom out. Like so. First you should open a new layer to start working. To do this, we'll touch the plus sign in the corner of the page. It shows paper size information that you're working on and what paper size you want to export. Let's open a new layout with customize size. So open here the height and other measurements. We're going to turn the deep layer 2300. Now the maximum layer is depending on paper size. E.g. I want to work on 30 by 40 centimeter paper. We're typing 30 number and 40 number. We can have 58 multilayers and welcome those. So here is the cover profile. We can select RGB state or CMYK state that we want to work on. These are important for export and to print the paper, we're going to select RGB state. For graphic projects, you can select CMYK state. Here is a time-lapse tab. You're able to determine its quality and format. Like for K, e.g. here there's a new layer. You selected, a new layer. We've learned Procreate tools before, but let's have a little look at these tools again just to refresh our memories. There are some icons above the page that you can see. There are Brush Tools. The main unuseful tool is brush, and we'll use it a lot. You can grow by Apple pen or things on the iPad, apple pen is more appropriate. So in here, there are lots of different kinds of brushes. In this part as a default, you can also download related applications and add different types of brushes from there. Okay, So let's check these out. E.g. there are different brushes. You can see here. Going onto this application, we are able to download these different brushes. There's some brushes are free of charge, others aren't. We're going to look at this one. So we're going to download it. Now this brush is saved in Procreate. There it is. Let's go back and check out some other brushes. We're going to save this brush in the Procreate app as well. There is. And we can test it, test it properly later on. We can do that all this way and some of these brushes are free so you can have a look through and see which ones jump out to E. So find your brush and tap on the Download tab. Select Procreate. And then you can save it. There. When you go into brushes, the brush set that you've just saved should be saved in there. Just make sure that you've clicked, save that in Procreate app, should be saved in here. Again, we're downloading other useful brushes. There are lots of different apps for this. And you can download brushes on other related apps. And last brushes. This is a brush that we just downloaded. This upper tab is allocated to measurements and the lower tab is allocated to its opacity. If we decrease the opacity, it'll be lighter. We'll look at another brush. It doesn't need to draw this fear. We're making it smaller. Now it's too small, so I'll make it bigger. These are as a default, there are particular brushes which have eyelash or hair and increases the speed of drawing and you can work much faster having that there as a default. Amongst the brushes that we can download, there are painting brushes too, which has its own technique. You can use them in acrylic watercolor painting or any other painting. There's lots of different versions painting brushes in there. So have a look and have a play around. So the next option is smashed, and it's for fading colors. So e.g. there are some colors on this part. We're fading them that will blend them together. Now it would be useful to recognize the combination of colors so you can decrease the size of that smashed fade. The next icon is a razor, has a different type as brush. You can also use them in growing different techniques. You can use the eraser as a highlight, e.g. and erasing just one part of the image. E.g. this eraser creates this texture and this can be used as a brush in projects. Okay, so our next icon is layers, which are the main and most important icon in this app or use this function a lot. So have a play around and look at layers. It's necessary to open new layers in order to work on a new project. We can also move the layer. It's depending on the layer that you want to work on and where you want it to sit in the foreground or the background. If I want to work on below layer, we'll drag it and move it lower. Okay, So work on a lower layer, whatever we're painting will be shown on this layer. But if we work on number two layer, lines will appear on this layer. So the next point is erasing layers, drag the layer towards the left side. There's delete, duplicate, and lock icons in here. By selecting lock icon layers will attach to one another and all the layers will change. By selecting Delete icon, it will be removed and the duplicate icon makes copies of a layer. E.g. we want to change one layer and keep the main layer. So we'll make a copy. If you follow along as I do. The next part is color, which we're going to learn about color Foundation and the color wheel. This is the color part. There is a disk here, which is the color wheel. By revolving it, we can select its brightness and darkness. Here determined the colors tonality. So e.g. we want to have a purple color which is mixed with 50% gray color. So it will be happening by revolving this disk. Have a pink color with 50% gray color in it. We revolve the disk or a red color with 50% gray color in it. By using it in this way, we can choose our color palette. And there are three tabs in the classic panel. The first one determines what color you want to use. The second one is for the brightness and the darkness. And the third one determined brightness and darkness in a vertical direction. Lovely. Now the next part to time as the color harmonies, which we're going to work with for a yellow color to find its color harmonies, which kind of purple is better to use beside it. So here's red and green, it's best color in color theory, red and green are complimentary colors. In the color wheel. The changing colors depends on its darkness and brightness, the amount of gray tonality in them as well. So e.g. a. Green color is not appropriate color besides a crimson color. This part is helpful to find suitable colors on the color wheel, and they tend to sit and opposite areas. This item below indicates its radiance. So it shows us that the complementary color of pink is green, and we can pick those easily. Then red, orange and blue. Orange goes with blue. Now if I enhance a little gray color in the orange, it would create a brick color. And then as you are blue, they adjust accordingly. So you can see how complimentary colors, and it's really helpful to find color harmonies using this method. In the next icon, you're able to add numbers of colors in order to print paper. Here, we can check the numbers and it's really useful for packaging. There was a print code for cover of books, CDs. So these numbers are important in graphic projects. Is important to note that there might be red colors on an exported project, which is different on print paper. So by adding exact numbers, there won't be a difference in the red color on my iPad or on other computers. In the next part, It's the color palette that we're going to be thinking about and we can create our own color palette here. So e.g. to paint an illustrator project, we need warm colors. We create it in here and we'll use the same colors. We can also do the same for having cold colors as well. So it's really whatever your preference is. Here's another area to explore. So we will certainly work on this part later on. The, let's see some other items. You can select and rotate our project by clicking on this icon. You can adjust it on automatic or manual state. We can make a copy. We can also change directions in horizontal and rotate shapes. To experiment with this area of the app. Here, to which part do you want to work on? By selecting. When we select this part, we create changes just on this layer, as you can see. So it's only coloring in behind the selected area. Now, in the settings tabs, there are icons related to save, adding frames are exporting. It's a really useful tab and as always, it is a fantastic idea to save as you go. So as I told you before, you can determine format for exporting tiff, JPEG or other formats, you can select them and save the project. It has an icon related to making animation, determining kind of paper and grade, and other setting tabs. This part is allocated to time-lapse part. We can check it out after finishing the project. Okay? So here we can adjust the project compass, changes on brushes and determining shortcuts. I would recommend exploring all of these areas and just getting to know each of them very well. There are different icons and the adjustments tab such as colors edit. It is like Photoshop software. They're organized icons here. And here we can create changes on colors and quality in this part. Okay? So e.g. we're making changes here. Remember practice makes perfect, Please work and practices cause to be in command of this application. Thank you for watching us. And remember, practise practise part as you can send me any messages. If you have any questions. Bye for now and I'll see you next time. 3. Using and Understanding the Color Wheel: Hello, and welcome to this lesson. I hope you're all well. In this lesson we're going to learn about the color wheel. So first we're going to open a new page for the Culwell. Choosing a black color and a normal brush. Hey, there we go. We're drawing a circle. If you want to follow along with me and practice along with me. One of the options of the Procreate app is that by holding the end of the line while drawing the line of the circle or any other shapes will be straight. We can practice that a couple of times and get used to that. We will draw a circle like this. And today we want to work on the color wheel. So we will draw another circle in the center of this circle. And then we will divide the circle, will divide the circle into different parts. For learning colors, we're going to use this color wheel. Now this color wheel gives us main, secondary and complimentary colors will be really useful taking forward and getting to know all of these colors and how they work together so you can get the most out of your color work in your paintings and in your drawings. We drew this color wheel with a black color, but we will remove them at the end. Because if we don't remove them, they will have an effect on the colors. We put the three main colors into these parts in the middle. And then the secondary and complimentary for the other parts. Main colors, secondary, the alphabet, and then complimentary around the outside. The first main color is yellow. Yellow, red, and blue are the three main colors. But we'll put yellow into this part first. So just drawing the outline of yellow first. And we're just going to lower the opacity on this layer and then add a new layer. We'll draw an outline in yellow for its segment. Then we can fill in that area, making sure that all of the lines are connected. The other main color is red. And we'll keep these colors in our palette. Added those top palate there. With the red. We're going to draw the outline and then fill in a segment. I will make sure that all of the lines are connected. Now these three colors cannot be made by combining any colors. So our next main color on its primary color will be blue, and we'll add that to the palette as well. We'll draw an outline before filling in the segment. There we go. So these are our main primary colors. Now we're going to add on. Secondary colors. And they are orange, green, and purple. And they are created by combining the primary colors. When combining colors with paint, e.g. the combination of yellow and red would create orange. We can also see the draft palette procreate that is like the color wheel. And the orange color is between red and yellow. And even we can combine them with smudge in order to create the orange color and select it. So we can use this tool for combining as well. Just like so, we can select that color. So I'll first secondary color will be orange, which is a combination of yellow and red. Making sure we connect all of the lines so that we can fill in this area. Here we go, It's now our next color is green, and we combine these two colors with smudge. You can see is green. We'll combine it very well. So it becomes like this green color. Now, in procreate, we can go back on and do by holding with two fingers and don't forget to go to your downloadable resources. All the information is available there for you to read for you. And of course, you can send me messages if you have any questions and I'll be able to answer those for you. So we've got our green color in our color palette. And I will fill out the second of our secondary colors, filling in this section. So that's our next secondary color. You can practice this as well, finding different shades of green for using more blue or more yellow. On next color is going to be purple, which is the combination of red and blue. As you can see. We're combining those well, then using the eyedropper tool to select the color purple. Now we'll fill in the third section. So it's very important to learn and know the color wheel because it's very useful in our work. And this is the basic lessons because we should know how to combine colors in order to reach a color we want and know how to lower or higher its brightness. So we have to learn color wheel in order to make our own palette. So here we have our primary and secondary colors. And while they are complimentary colors, e.g. blue is a complimentary color for orange, red for green and yellow for purple. E.g. if the brightness of yellow is high, purple, the more bright and vice versa, we will understand it better. In color harmony. This will all begin to make more sense the more we go through it. But color harmony will be especially useful for working on our own color black. And we have these complimentary colors in these parts, again, around the outside. Next to these parts are for combining complimentary color with the main color, e.g. the orange color in this part. Has more yellow tonality, but in the other part has more red tonality. So we can understand how much each main color is combined with this complimentary color. Okay? So now we're going to put the complimentary colors into these parts. Around the outside. We're looking now at the tonality as it changes, as we move around the wheel. Okay? So now this orange color is going to have more yellow tonality. Will go on the yellow side. Okay, That's our first section. Now again, we'll use this orange, but with more yellow tonality. When you're done with your practices, please send them to me. So then I can guide you step-by-step and we can discuss the color palette further if you have any questions at all. This may seem very basic, but it is exceptionally useful to know and have this knowledge in grained for future artistic work. If color palette is something that you have covered before, you are welcome to fast forward as you need. Or if this is brand new information, you can pause the video and practice going through the colors, exploring them as you ingest this new information. In this next part, there is a yellow color. In this part, again, moving slightly more over. And we put the yellow at the top of the wheel here. So now we choose this green color that has more of a yellow tonality. Love you guys. So we're getting closer to the yellow. I'm going to fill in this section. So we're creating this complimentary color from where the primary and secondary colors have combined income closer together. This part is for the main green color where it connects to the secondary. We'll then the next part includes green and blue. So it's got more of a blue tonality from our main green color. Like connecting all of the lines here. There we go. You can see how these colors compliment each other as you go around. And now the next part is going to be for the main blue color. Now we're going to work with the purple color. So the blue taking on a purple tonality, or the purple taking on a blue tonality. So that's halfway in between the purple and the blue. Remember if you have any questions, you can message me at anytime. You can see in this part, we're exploring more of a blue tonality in the purple color. Like so. Then the next section will be all purple color from the secondary wheel. Okay, so then the next step on from that will be purple with a red tonality. Adding a red tonality to the purple. We're just coloring that a little bit there. Okay, and now we come on to the main red color, so we're back to our primary will within the complimentary colors. So this color wheel can be continued. It means that we can put more and more variations of the purple colors combined with the red and vice versa around the wheel. We also have this color wheel with white brightness that we will work on later in order to see how it will be in combination with the white color, we're looking at adding in more of the gray scale to our primary color wheel. In this part of the red color will take on more of an orange tonality. Hey guys, so you can see how the colors work together. And this is the color wheel. So we've worked on that, which concludes the main complimentary colors and the combination between them. So now we can extend this color wheel. We remove the black lines. We made this color wheel smaller. And then we're going to continue it and combine colors with white. So from here, we're going to open a new layer and we can draw a circle like this. There we go. We should draw it in the other layer in order to change it. If we want to keep this circle separate. Now we can divide it into new parts. Now we have more pods. As we're working through the course. Don't forget to send me your assignments and to practice everything that we go through. The more you can practice, the better it will sink in. And you'll be able to draw naturally upon that knowledge when it's ingrained. Properly. So we're just searching out this new circle here. Move that layer down. So we'll open a new layer. Now we're going to add the white color to see how it would be. So to begin with, we will combine yellow with white to have the brightness all the way up. And we just move that yellow towards the white. For the next part, we will combine this yellow color with orange and white. So here we are combining colors with white to add new colors into our color wheel. So we're expanding it even further. For this next part, we'll increase the brightness a little. Move it slightly more towards the orange. Select the orange color and combine it with white. Understanding the color wheel, we can start to work with the meaning of color and lessons which are related to color. Very attractive. They stand out much more. Again, we're going to choose the orange color and we'll add even more white. Tonality. Has slightly more red color as well. A bit more red. It's like pink, almost coming into a peach color. Who's part? We're adding more white color. And we go. Now we can extend and continue this color wheel. We can add white, these colors. For the next layer, we can keep on going with the color wheel. For our next segment, we're going to choose a red color. Add more of a white tonality. Step-by-step as we go. We'll keep on adding more white color to the corresponding color below it. For the next part, which using purple and adding a red color with the white. This purple color is lighter. Add more red, more white. You can see this is where the red and the purple are next to each other. We're finding the halfway in-between these two segments. And then combining them above. My doing this, we can see how these colors interact just at a glance. Now we're going to add blue color. We'll make it lighter. So already that's going away from the red tonality and closer to the blue. As we work towards our main purple color. Now we've chosen purple and it goes towards the blue and becomes lighter. When you're working with your color wheel, have a play around with your colors and just get to know how they interact. As part of your practice. In doing this, you can build a deeper understanding of color and how you can use it creatively. For this next segment, we're adding more blue. As we start to move away from the purple. Then the next part is blue, but we're making it lighter. This is blue with white added to it. You can see if we study and learn color wheel very well. You only need to search for colors will be able to create them much, much easier. Now we're going to add more of the white color for the next part and make it lighter. Now as time goes on, our eyes are going to adapt more to these colors. And this is very important for any artist or illustrator. It gives us much more creative freedom when we know the colors very well. Now we're going into the green tonality in our color wheel. Now we're going to combine these two colors and make that white color predominant. So it will become lighter. As you can see. It should all start to make sense. The more you practice this, the more you work with colors and understand how they interact and all created. This next part actually has more green color in it. There we go. And we'll add white tonality to the next color. And this color also has a yellow tonality starting to come into it. So my working like this, we can actually create lots of colors to add to our color wheel. The next color here it has more yellow and greater brightness, some more white. Then the last color that is a yellow green combination and has a white color. Here we go, connecting all of the lines. And then we'll fill in the last segment. That's how kinda well, so we'll delete this layer. Here is our color wheel. We can also continue it and add more white color to create new colors and extend our color wheels. We can keep on expanding it out. So e.g. we can choose this color with more white tonality and see the difference there. And again, this color but lighter. The next color. And again, lighter. Practice this color wheel and get to know all of the colors you can create and how they actually come together. This will really help you in your work. And in the long run, it will make it easier to come up with the Carlos. You can imagine your work faster as well. There it is, adding more white witch crazes, lighter color. Now as we can see, we choose each color and add a 1% of white tonality. And then we can see it lighter already. You can combine these colors as part of the expansion of your color wheel. So it really can keep on going. We can make unlimited colors and add them to the color wheel. So the more we add why tonality to these colors? Brighter, they become adding some white. Then on to the next color. It's already is becoming very bright. The more white we add. We can also create more colors and change them and extend the color wheel that way. Well, we learned this color wheel in this video and we can use them in our work. So this will be extremely useful as we continue to grow. So hopefully this has given you a better understanding of colors and where they come from. So that going forward it'll be easy to create the colors you imagine. An interesting thing to note is that if we divide this color wheel, the upper colors are warm colors, and then the lower colors are cold colors. As we can see, the colors of this part made with blue color and the other part is made with a yellow color. I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial and if you want to know more about other courses, you can always enroll into them as well. Take care and I will see you in the next class. Goodbye for now. 4. The Psychology of Color: Hello, welcome to this lesson. We're going to learn about the psychology of colors and realize about the effects of colors on advertisement, the clothing industry. This is a really important lesson as you'll be able to use his creatively to affect people's subconscious using the psychology of color. As we said that a blue, yellow, and red colors on the color wheel as the main colors. These are the primary colors. First, we will open a new layer. And now using blue. Blue is typically known as a man's color. There are many psychological theories about the blue color. For blue, this color is a symbol of peace and quietness. It is used wherever that needs to be pieced like a hospital. It is used in clothing or interior accessories. But despite this, it is also a symbol of freshness and responsibility. We can use this color on a piece bird painting. It illustrates relaxation and peace. Generally, sharing peace and calmness. The combination of blue, a little gray and white, illustrate sadness and pain. Like a cloud. Blue can also show sadness. Blues, powerful color in banks, it can determine power and ensure people invest. It is a symbol of stability, coordination, piece, and communists, it is generally known as a man's color. This is the color blue, and the next color is green. So green is a cold color. It's suitable for professional brands and it declines blood pressure. It can influence health and minds. And it is said that the green color is able to decrease blood pressure and heart rate. When you're in nature, you're relaxed. This is a relaxing color for an agile work environment and health. Someone introduced green as a lucky color. Green is also a symbol of wealth. If you concentrate wealth, icons or green, everywhere you look, as well as relaxation and wealth. The color green is also a balance and a cure symbol. It's a renovation symbol because there is growth as part of the green color. It's about associations with the color. Some people believe that the color green indicates resumption. So you'd better use green color on resume icons. It means it can grow, it can continue to grow. And as you can probably imagine, green is the best color to determine organic projects and organic products. So that's it for green. Green is growth, health, birth, and generosity. However, it can also be a symbol of jealousy and wealth. To expound a bit more, It's a birth symbol because it shows growth as we see in leaves and as we see in nature. Okay, so our next color is the color purple. And this is a mythical color, so it's sensitive and it is mysterious. Purple is generally known as an emotional color. You're not able to see them a lot in nature. This is where our own psychological associations come in. Purple is a royal color, like Persian blue that we used in tiles and ceramics. And there is history to being a royal color in that purple is a very expensive dye to acquire back in the day. It is a luxury color. And this mystery color is used in jewelry. Along with the history of it being inexpensive die purple is a symbol of wealth, as is green. It can be used to illustrate spirituality and fiction. It can be changed for business, it depends on the brand and the product. As purple is a luxury color, it'd be used in chic, interior design and fashion design. Overall, purple is a symbol of mysteriousness, spirituality, fiction, and luxury icons. For spiritual occasions, we will often use this color. Our next color is red. So red, if you remember from the color wheel, is a warm color. It's attractive and it is energetic. It means passion is the color we see often on Valentine's Day. It is used as a symbol of love. When you're passionate about something, you use the color red. Red is a warm color. It's like a fire. It can be a symbol of anger as well, because it has a high temperature and it's passion in a different sense. It's also a symbol of confidence to excitement, love, danger, energy. Moving on from red, we have the orange color, and this color is youth, and it is a happy color. And this is still in our warm pallet. So it has some mutual features with the red colors. Is energetic and warm, the same as red colors. Orange shows intimacy and life. It shows the seasons changing. It shows the last days of summer and the beginning for an association that comes from the falling leaves and that nice orange color. So it can be a very attractive brand. It can be used because of the warm pallet for kids. And orange can also be used to flourish creativity. It is used in academic departments, especially for kids. As we're drawing, it may be good to draw your association with this color and see how it comes out. Overall, oranges, a symbol of creativity, success, balance, and passion. It is a warm color. That's orange for me. The next color is yellow. Yellow is a symbol of power and financial success. It has a high energy level and it shows joy and danger. You can probably imagine what some of these associations come from, from gold coins from the sun. Yellow is a youthful color. Much like those yellow Smiley face emojis. It can represent excitement, joy, and playfulness. Yellow transfers a warm sense. But it can also be used to show danger to like fire and wore. Yellow is a symbol of joy and hope. About how you use the color. Yellow sits on the warm side of our color palette, and it is energetic, it's visible. It's used on road signs. And then we have yellow. Bright color is pink. Pink is a sardonic color. It's generally known as a girl's color. So it relates to a gender stereotype. Pink shows entertainment. Pink shows femininity. So it's elegant, it is sweet. It can represent love and peace. Again, you can draw your association of pink is used in kids rooms often as a peace color. It's also used in cosmetic products. So it makes us think of makeup, e.g. often related to gender on clothing. Pink shows love and it shows joy. Because of its association to agenda stereotype, it would be inappropriate color to use in women's cafe decorations, e.g. It's also an appropriate color to be used in cosmetic product advertisements. It's coming on to our next color. The next color is gray. And gray is a neutral color. A bit more. There we go. So it is a professional color is often used in work and business. It can be known as a man's color. It's often used in legal companies. To gray can have different tonalities. We can say that neutral is it symbol? Because of its neutrality, is popular among brands. It's used in a professional environment. Legal agents often tend to use this color on its logo. Establishing themselves as a neutral ground. Our next color is black. And black is also known as a luxury color. Black is a powerful color. Black can be used in ceremonial and official events. It is a symbol of darkness and mysteriousness. And it goes well with the white color as well. So black and white besides each other as symbols of power and respect. It shows power despite being mysterious, and we can show anger and sadness too because of the contrast. So e.g. if you combine black and blue, that would bring out sadness. So they would heighten each other. Black makes an attractive combination with white. It's popular color in posters and logos. The next color will be white. White is a symbol of sincerity and quietness, honor and peace. It shows peace. White and light blue are used in detergent products. It's a cold color. It can often make cooler colors, colder, and lighter. In post is related to P subjects. The white color is used on main color of these posters is white. And it can be used for purity. This was the psychology of colors. You can use it in styling and other designs. I hope you've enjoyed this lesson. If you like, it may be beneficial to experiment combining different colors and see what associations they bring out when placed together. I will see you in the next tutorial. Take care and goodbye. 5. Complementary Colors: Cool: Hello everyone. After talking about the main colors in our previous sessions, we're going to talk now about the complimentary colors. As we move on to colors in general, are divided into warm and cool colors. So now we're going to make a cool palette and a warm palette of colors. Going to consider the seasons in a year with their colors. So if a spring, we have different tonalities of pink, purple, red, etc. For summer the dominant colors are green tonalities, yellow and orange. And for autumn, brown, red tonalities, orange, ochre, et cetera. Then going on to winter, we have white, blue, gray and different tonalities. Now we're going to practice some of these cool colors and some of these warm tonalities. So to start, we will add a new layer. Now. We can start drawing. To test our cool colors. We are going to draw an ice cream. If you want to follow along with me and explore these cool colors without ice cream cone. If you have any questions as well, please feel free to message me and we can discuss the color palette and explore any questions you have. Okay? So here we have our basic drawing of an ice cream, which we're going to paint in two versions of cool and warm tonalities. Following along with me, you remember our color palette from a full, we're exploring that bottom half. So first we complete an edit, our drawing. We're going to lower the opacity of our sketch and we'll draw it again in a new layer. Here we go. And don't forget, you can follow along my hand movements and practice as we go through the lesson. And if you need to pause at any point, catch up, that's absolutely okay. Or if you've covered this before, can phospholipid, that is alright. So we're just completing our sketch here. And following along with my hand movements. We're drawing these lines on the cone of the ice cream. Okay? Once we've finished with this, will remove the previous lines to see what we have. Perfect. Now we want to use cool tonalities to paint the ice cream. So first we're going to arrange cool colors on our palate in different tonalities from dark to light. E.g. the scoops would be in purple and blue tonality, and the current would be in a light blue color. Alright, so we've chosen the color. So we'll add another layer and start coloring the cone. With any of your colors. You can always test them out on the side of your painting and then remove them once you've given them a bit of a test. Now we'll use a lighter tonality on our cone. And we can draw in these lines. There we go. So we've colored in the rack of the code, and now we can draw in its pattern. We're choosing a darker tonality, blue to draw some of the diagonal lines onto it. We've just made our brush a bit smaller there. If you're drawing in our diagonal lines, there's no need to rush with these. We can let it be a calming experience. Now I'm going to make the color darker line, the opacity as well. Now we're outlining it like this. So sort of as if we've been hatching. Then will it make the color lighter? Adding shade to our cone by changing the tonality of the blue. So we've chosen another brush and we've made it thinner. I'm withdrawing some diagonal lines in another direction on the cone. You can again, there's no need to rush. This is good practice for drawing smooth lines. So by doing this, we've begun to create some texture on the cone. We can actually make the color lighter than this. So we'll select this color and we'll make it lighter. Now we're adding a bit of a highlight along the edge of the cone. Does make it clear where the rapid code and adding that nice highlight. So you're applying this light tonality on this part. It's already, That's looking better. So we will leave the cone. Here for now, we'll leave that here. So now we want to open another layer and we want to use another cool color for our ice cream serum. We talked about the purples and blues. So we're choosing a light purple and we'll apply it on this layer of the ice cream. You want to draw along with me. You can send me your assignments and we only for your questions. And we can chat more about them. Forget the all of the resources are available in your resources folder so you can download those and then have all the information for you. We've darken the purple a little and applied on the second layer. Now I want to make the texture and to do so we're changing our brush. Just testing that aside. We're darkening the color a little. I'm just going to apply it on some of the parts. Adding a little bit more texture in here. There we go. And now it will darken the color more than this. And we'll do the same. Just creating this texture throughout the ice cream. We've lighten the color and applied it on some of the parts. Even more texture. So all of these tonalities that you can see here over in our cool color circle. When we want to lighten a color, we can use white with different tonalities of blue and gray and add them to our colors to make cooler tonalities. For the light tonalities we need white. You can see already this is very cool image because all of the colors in it from our cool color palette. So it has a colder feeling to it. We're getting some very light spots on the ice cream. You can see that these spots have more white color. And then for the lower layer will do the same to show the texture. Perfect. It's now for this group, we're going to select a blue color. We're just coloring it in like this, making the tonality darker, the layer below the scoop. So as you can see, we apply the same color again. It becomes darker. Okay, so now we're going to select a blue to color this chair up here in blue, like a blueberry. Can work a lot on this. Right now. We're just doing the basic work. And later we're going to add more details to our painting. Well, I've hope you enjoyed this lesson and I will see you in the next tutorial. Don't forget if you have any questions. You can message me and we can talk it through. Thank you for joining me. Bye. 6. Adding Details to Your Artwork: Hello everyone and welcome to this lesson. So in the last section we worked on the color wheel, and now we're going to work on color theory. We're going to learn how to use appropriate colors from the cold color palettes. And finally, we're going to compare cold and warm color palettes. And what observers feel about those colors. We used a light green, blue. We usually use blue and gray tonality in order to create a cold color palette. We've also mixed with the white color for these lighter spots. Then to create the ice cream texture using a brush, which we can create texture with who don't use brushes anymore at this point. Okay, so we're going to be zooming in as someone that needs to be colored dark. It's going to be the edges. So you want to create an ice cream texture. Fluffing out those edges a bit. We've got some cracks as well. If you want to practice along with me, you can follow my hand movements. And if at any point you want to slow down the video or pause the video to catch up. But it's absolutely okay. You're more than welcome to should work at your own pace. We are painting by applying hand pressure to spread ice cream texture on the entire surface. So then we're also picking some light colors. We're making the brush thinner. Painting the shades onto the ice cream. Putting some shading into our work where we are. Now by mixing colors with the white color, we can create a cold color and make it lighter. Similarly, if we mix colors were black or brown or orange, or even crimson colors, we can create a warmer color. Now we're just going to go through and make these edges lighter. Highlighting and shading the image. Now for bigger surfaces, for wider surfaces, we should use a wider or bigger brush. Don't forget that all of your resources are available in your resources folder. You can download those and find all of the information in there as well. Now, on our ice cream, color in a spot shape, a little glimmer on our ice cream there. We're going to pick some darker colors now. Hinges that if we need to, we're just building up that texture. Even more. There we go. And we'll use smaller brushes to create the details. So go in with a fine brush. Then we can use a bigger brushes to create texture. And textures are shown better by using small brushes to highlight those areas of texture that we've been adding in. It can be very gentle with our work. Having patients and just capturing those details, highlights and the shadows. Now for the upper scoop, we're picking its colors and making those darker. The texture will be more visible when we using a bigger brush. Let's actually try another brush. Okay, that's good. Now we're making it darker. Picked it from the painting. And it'd be useful for painting oil color or acrylic. So it matches the brushes texture. We've got the shadow from our blueberry, fluffing out those edges. And going for a lighter color. Now I'll make it wider again. Up the brightness. We can choose colors from the palette before we begin painting and then use those colors easily. Right now we're just making the brush thinner. And as you can see, we're painting lines, shapes, not a straight line. We're giving it a little bit of life, removing our hands up and down to create the ice cream form. So by giving it some curves, giving it some movement, the painting itself is much more alive and it pops off the screen even better. You can practice those lines shapes on the side as well. If you like. Give it a couple of guys. So you can feel comfortable with that. Now, as you can see, we're just adding some white spots. If you pay attention to my hand movements. Applying colors on the surface like this is really important for creating more texture. You can see that it emphasizes color, it emphasizes texture. You can create as many textures as you like. We didn't open many layers on this project because there aren't many surfaces. So we've worked on about four layers. And it'd be different in painting, portrait, or illustration when you have two separate layers and background. So it's better to open new layers. We didn't open many layers on this project because we focused on learning color theory. So that's been primary focus. But color harmonies are important even in painting with cold colors. With this theory, blue should go with purple contrast. But it's best not to put too light of a blue. Besides too dark of a purple. We should pay attention to the contrast makes your project more attractive overall. Especially in things like cloves, packaging, and advertising projects. So you're better to pay attention to these points. It's a basic principle, but you'd be most successful in each career by knowing colors and understanding color harmonies. Now we're going to add a few white spots. For this. We don't really want to paint realistically. We're focusing on color theory. To illustrate, we should work on all details in order to create the ice cream. Blueberry as well. We're changing the brushes and we're going to use a medium brush because there is a difference between the berry and the ice cream, texture, will separate those just a little bit. And choosing brushes depends on the texture that we want to work on. For the blueberry, it's softer. You can see as you follow along my hand movements that were actually moving our hands up and down to keep the curved shape. If there was a cough shape, you'd put color on the surface with a bit of a rotation to show the curve. That's really important. So e.g. to paint an apple, you should paint with a rotational hand movement. But to paint some things such as a bed or closet, you can paint flat shapes as there's no curve. As you're painting, should apply your hand pressure the same as painting with a brush or a pencil. The moment we're working, not just on the shape of the blue variable. We're also going in and we're painting in our shading, lighten our shadows. If you follow along with me, follow my hand movements and practice as we go. That's really nice details there on our blueberry now, we've managed to successfully separate it from the texture of the ice cream. We get into add more light. Okay, did a bit of a reflection on the side here as well. And we're painting this part in a darker color. You can see all the colors here are in a cold color tonality. So our main colors are blue, blue, green, and purple. And we have this purplish blue. But all of these can mix with gray colors. She observing the work. I think that this part is too big. So I'm just going to erase parts of it. And then we'll go on and we'll paint that again. At the suggested height. There we go, that's better. So it's okay to adjust your painting as you go. Often will do that when we sit back and look at our work, especially if we're working with the reference. We can make adjustments as we draw. But remember as well that practice makes perfect, so, so important to practice. So keep on practicing. Send me your work, send me any of your questions and I'll be able to help you. There we go. That's looking much better and got some nice detail in with the shade. So now we're going to be picking a dark blue green color. And then painting this part, illustrate its shape. Just going around the edge there, separating it even more from the ice cream. And keeping in a rotational hand movement showing the curve. Again, we go for a darker color when making the brush thinner. Defining the outline there. So what you can see emerging here is the shadow underneath the berry. Again. Use a thinner brush and we'll draw outlines wherever it needs, like the edges and the shadows. We're clarifying a very even more by drawing in the shadows. Perfect. Well, this combination of cold colors has been completed. I hope you found this course useful and you've enjoyed it. Thank you for joining me. Goodbye for now. 7. Complementary Colors: Warm: Hello dear. All so today we're going to look at our warm color palette. So we're opening a new layer to draw an ice cream with warm layers. As usual, we start drawing our picture. We can do this quite roughly. If you want to follow along my hand movements as we go. First, we're doing our sketch, and then we will add the details. If at any point during this video you want to pause and catch up, please do. You can also send me any questions you may have. If we draw our ice cream bigger than we expected, It's in this layer so we can select it and edit it. Okay, So now as you can see, we've drawn the basic sketch freehand, and then we're working on it and editing wherever it's needed so we can make adjustments as we work. This ice cream is going to be in warm colors, which consist of yellow, orange, red, and some brown tonalities. For the cone, we're going to use a cream color, which has a warm tonality. And actually we can make it a bit darker and start with that darker color. So we're not going to copy our drawing. We working on it directly. We're cleaning up the drawing we've outlined here. Now it's better to add a new layer. And again, we'll draw our drawing with cleaner lines. Because that's all cone. That's the base layer, making the color lighter. Then we'll draw this line here where the current wraps around. Now we're adding in another layer. We select Mask and this way we're not crossing the lines while coloring. We're going to the edge and we're applying lighter colors here around the edges. We can shade with this light color and we can make it even lighter. You can play around with this. You can experiment with these warm colors that after we go back to the previous layer and make the color a bit darker, we've made the brush smaller as well. Now we can draw some lines to create the texture of the cone. As you can see, half of the color circle consists of different warm colors and their tonalities, and the other half consists of cool colors. On this half the circle, whatever we choose is warm, and on the other half, whatever we choose is cool and tonality. Okay, so now we're going to go in with the same medium brush, but we'll less than the size of the tip. We're making the texture of the cone. I will create a texture on this other side as well, bringing our diagonal lines in an opposite direction. Okay? The other way as well. You can go patiently with this dentally creating that texture, practicing all smooth lines. And this way we can create the texture quite simply. Just like this. We go back to the newer layer. With the same color will lighten the color of the edges. Just along here. While we're working with the warm pallet, we're also exploring shading, bringing the highlights and the shadows. Make it lighter, like this along those edges. Okay, so, so far this is what we've done with low pressure of our pen. And by lessening the opacity, shade some parts like this to make it like a bread or a cone of the ice cream. To bring in more shade. We're not going for realism, but in more realistic works. We'd need to shade and work on every single part patiently. We can try to have a natural and realistic texture exactly like our model. This way we can create dimensional work ring and shade in each area. You won't focus too much on that today. As the aim for this lesson is the colors and their tonality. So that's our focus today, really just understanding the warm color palette. And of course you've worked a little bit more on the cone, but not quite at a realistic level. We go, so that's enough for the cone. So now we'll move on to the next part. We're going to start working on the ice cream. So we could choose red, brown, or yellow for the scoops of ice cream. These are all warm colors. All of that is up to us, which we prefer to work on. But you can see there in the warm half of the palate. And pay attention that if you want to choose pink, if it has more of a red tonality, it will be warm. If the white or blue color is in it, then it will go to a cooler colors. We want to make sure that pink has a red tonality. To keep the warmth. In green has warm and cool tonality to it depends on the red or blue or white tonality in our combinations. For this warm pallet, we want to make sure it has more of a red tonality. So open a new layer and change our brush. In Painting tab in this part we have some brushes and we can choose a brush suitable for creating textures, or we can choose from the artist tab as well and choose the brush that we want to work with. So we're working on ice cream now. Well, this is a good brush. It gives us a bit of a fluff around the edges of our ice cream and creates quite a nice texture. So first we're painting the whole part here in red. This is the first layer of red. Then we'll go for its details. Considering the different tonalities of red. The Phyllis we edges should be darker, which we can do. Just going over the top with this brush will lighten this part here with a lighter tonality of red. Usually the upper parts of an ice cream in such works and lighter in the lower parts are darker. For the other scoop, we're going to select yellow. Now we can choose the color of chocolate too, which is a warm color if there's more red color in it. So it's all about the tonalities. On our top scoop here, withdrawing a chocolate ice cream. Now with this brush, we can blend the color as well as creating its texture. If we want to compare it with physical works of art, It's similar to an acrylic or watercolor, in that it uses a wet technique. You've chosen a darker tonality. And this is a study of colors, like what we learned about sketching or focuses on the colors themselves and how they affect our audience. In coloring. First, we apply the background color and then we go through the details like textures, light, and shadow, etc. So we're going to use a yellow. Now for the Cherry up the top. We're just changing our brush. Okay, there we go. That's better size. So first we color in the background, and then we're going to work on the cherry properly. Do a smaller brush and a dark color for the stem there. Here we are. This is our ice cream in warm colors. And now we're going to work on the details. We'll zoom back in. Maybe you guys were to cleaning this up. As we begin to work on the details, we're raising, the crossing or the extra lines from the cone, making sure that's nice and sharp on the outside. And then coming up to the ice cream, we're going to choose a red color, will select another brush to create a different texture. So let's actually open a new layer. Now that we have our brush. Zooming in. There we go. So that's a good size brush. Now, we can carefully start working on it. We'll put some stain of this darker tonality on some parts. As surface is not very smooth. Now it has texture. I'm following along with my hand movements. So when we put light colors beside dark colors, the work gains an extra dimension. This will really elevate your work. Experimenting and practicing, working with dimension, creating more three-dimensionality. In your paintings. We can really use light and shadow to add dimension as well as texture. Now we're going to work with a thinner brush. And we'll draw the details just like this. And can make the color darker and touch up some of these pods. This more details, but they go a long way. You can keep on practicing this practice absolutely makes perfect. So don't worry if you don't have it immediately, keep on practicing. So select a lighter color and apply that onto our ice cream. There we go. These two work together and we're going to put some spots of this light color here. Okay? So if we want to make a red color lighter, we actually move it to more of a yellowish tonality, which as you can see, becomes orange. So we can use that to really bring in more highlight, more texture to the ice cream. And you can really see the difference here between the red skip and the brown scoop, where we've added in texture and we've added in light and shadow. Because we chose a thinner brush for its texture. Let me put some tiny and delicate lines just randomly. It's got lots of texture. So we're done with this mulberry scoop. We've explored the read command with a yellow tonality. Now I want to talk more on the chocolate scoop. Just changing our colors. More of a brown tonality. We're going to use a bigger brush than before. So first we're putting these dark stains on. We're really getting those edges. We're putting the color in like spots or stain. As we create this texture. Going to use a lighter tonality for this part. Perfect, because we're using a warm tonality when we want to make it lighter, we'll be using yellow instead of white to show the warmth. Really maintaining the warm color palette. Throughout. You can see it's all works now for our chocolate scoop. But if we were to add white, it would actually bring in a cold tone. Keeps it nice and warm. So already we're getting much nicer texture on the chocolate scoop. And we repeat putting the spots until we create our desired texture. Now with a darker tonality and a thinner brush will darken some parts. Just like here. You're creating more of a shadow. At the bottom of the scoop. Going along the edges like these will make our brush much thinner and add some delicate lines to show the texture even better. There we go. So as we said, we make warm colors light by adding yellow and cool colors lighter by adding white. Always just adding yellow when we're trying to lighten our warm pallet. Okay, so here's much more detail in here already. And now we're going to make it lighter by adding yellow. Still going in with quite a thin brush. Adding in those details. There we go. So now we are done working on the chocolate part. And now we're going to work on the yellow cherry. Working on the stem first. We change our brush to be most suitable one for the cherries is a different texture to the ice cream, or making the color just a little bit lighter color some hearts of the stem. I'll just grab that yellow color. To make the color lighter, we increase the yellow tonalities. You can see brighter and it's lighter and we're following the curvature of the cherry. Drawing some circular lines in it to show the roundness and create bit of a shine as well. Now we make it darker to add some shade. If you want to follow along with my hand movements to capture the roundness of the cherry, to capture those curved lines using a rotational hand movement. Alright, so we're shading some of these colors with fading some of these colors as well. Because we got a little bit of a highlight around for the stem, fools into shadow. So it's really helping clarify that when we're making a brush thinner and using a lighter yellow to really bring in these highlights. To get a bit of a reflection going. Again, we'll use a darker tonality beside the light part to help pop out those highlights. So do keep on practicing as work with the warm color palette and the cool color palette and really gaining a deeper understanding between the different tonalities and how you can creatively use those to inspire feeling in your work. It may seem basic this information, but it will elevate your work to a whole new levels. It's fantastic thing to practice and ingrain that information. Okay, so now we're going to work on the chariot with a thinner brush and a darker yellow and we'll darken the edges. This is really creating a shadow, as well as clarifying the cherry. There's this wonderful separation happening between the ice cream and the terror. You can see the different textures. We've got these lovely deep textures. We've got highlights and shadows, which is following the curvature of the cherry. Okay, so now this is our warm colored ice cream. Let's compare this with the cool ice cream. So they have a distinctly different feeling about them. So this is the cool tonality, as much colder. We're going to save these ice creams into our gallery. Such a different feeling between the coal ice cream and the warm ice cream. Those are saved. We can compare the two. Now in our next lesson, we're going to talk about major and minor colors, the degree of that brightness, and the way in which we can combine them to make minor colors and different tonalities and how we can use that in our work. And this will unlock even more creativity when we're working. So even if it feels basic, Let's ingrain this information, elevate our work to whole new heights, e.g. among main colors, which are red, yellow, and blue, yellow is the brighter one. Amongst these, yellow is the brightest color. So if we consider ourselves in which we have six parts, on which we have only one yellow part and the rest are red. They're all equally seen by the eye of the observer as they will be equally bright. But if we consider one part of each, the yellow part would appear larger compared to the rest. Would even look as if it's closer to us as it is brighter. There's lots of ways that we can use this. I hope you've enjoyed this lesson and I'll see you in the next tutorial. Bye for now. 8. Color Harmony with Green and Red: Hello everyone and welcome to this tutorial. We're going to continue learning about color harmony in digital painting and we're working again on the Procreate app. So we've worked on the color wheel, cold colors and warm colors. And now we want to work on complementary colors and color harmony. So the human brain is always following discipline and balance. Colors and shapes help to create discipline. This will be an important thing to note as we work through color harmony. If there is no color harmony, it looks on organized, an ugly to the brain. Automatically, It's a subconscious reaction that we have to these colors. Now when we're working with color composition based on harmony, there are colors which are located in front of each other in nature and in the color wheel. So to introduce some new terminology now, the monochrome and analog colors. Monochrome determines the color intensity. It determines the intensity of colors and also the brightness. That's monochrome colors. E.g. with monochrome colors, as you can see, there is a difference between the intensity of these yellow colors. So that lighter yellow shines, we call that a tint. In terminology, there are some colors which can be lighter by mixing with a white color. We call them tents. We cool color density, tone. And there are also some colors which can be darker by mixing with a black color. We call those shadows. There's combination of white and yellow color is lighter and tint and its intensity goes up. This yellow is called shadow because it's mixed with black. So it seems like a shadow. We want to draw a shape and paint it with the last yellow color and paint light yellow on it will seem like a shadow. You follow along with me as we explore. You can see the darker yellow looks like a shadow there in the same harmony, light and dark, and we can put those besides each other. This is also important in interior design, fashion design, advertisement, and the packaging industry. E.g. there are close in dark colors and you should use the same color, but lighter. Now, analog colors, they can sit beside each other in the color wheel. They are inline. So let's have a look now at analog colors. So we're looking at the color wheel. Red, orange, and yellow are inline on the color wheel. It means in analog composition, you should use colors which are next to each other. Okay? So now e.g. there's a red circle here. Now to add a new color and animal commonly, we should use a reddish purple or an orange color. There's our red circle. And we can use a purple with a reddish tonality or an orange color. So we're going to work with a reddish orange. Now, these are in the same color harmony as a visual sight. In interior design, e.g. a. Sofa can match with the curation or the other accessories. Analog harmony is contiguous colors and monochrome color intensity. There are some colors, tints which are made lighter by white color, and they can be darker too. Now, the next harmony that we're going to work on is complimentary color harmony. Now, for complementary color harmony, we'll take a look at the color wheel and find those colors which are ahead of each other are called complimentary colors. And you can see it in nature. E.g. a red flower has a green leaf, and the human brain recognizes a beautiful color composition. We can see the red and the green opposite each other on the wheel. And the main color is red, and it's complimentary color is green. And there'll be next to each other. In a painting, the complimentary color of yellow, e.g. is purple. The complimentary color. Of blue is orange. And these all happen to be opposite each other on the wheel. So when we use a dark orange, its complimentary color is a darker blue. Two, which is in front of the orange. You can see all this on the color wheel. Here. They line up and by dividing the color wheel to two parts, dark red goes with green, blue. As you can see. This goes for all of the colors on the color wheel. As you can see. Now we're going to work on these lessons. Monochrome, analog, complementary harmonies. If you'd like to go back and re-watch to understand this concept? Absolutely. Do you can pause or rewind this video anytime. Now we're going to learn the monochrome analog and complimentary harmonies in three examples and exercises. So to start with opening a new layer, and we're going to draw sketching with a normal brush. Now for our sketch, we want to work on still-life this time. And we will paint in order to learn monochrome, analog and complimentary harmonies on an urn. So frightening complimentary colors is really important for matching clothes, furnishing the houses, and even in the advertising and packaging industry to make our images more attractive. This means our images are complimentary colors. We'll stick with our audience. And that will help elevate our work. Just going and doing a rough sketch. It. It's a very long subject and lesson. So actually knowing color contrast, color harmony, and also the psychology of colors are really important, especially in the advertisement industry. So you can use all of these concepts creatively. We're just doing a rough sketch and we'll work more on this later. It's necessary to be aware of choosing the color of products and its packaging to be clear to read for customers and consumers. This can be helpful to create billboard ads, e.g. based on color theory, there are lots of ways that you can use this in your work to creative effect. We can look at how color is suitable for social billboard ads or for advertising towards children. So thinking about our target audience here, which colors would be influential in your customer's mind? So this is very important theory for graphics and for working in advertising. Now our rough sketches completed, so we'll draw it outlines, but we don't want to keep the black outlines because black or gray colors can influence color intensity. Gray scale is important here, e.g. the black color can decline or increase color intensity. So we've got it in a rough sketch, what we're going to draw over it in a new layer so we can remove the black outlines later on. And this is why we're emphasizing using 50% sheets for frames. Now let's draw our outlines. If you want to practice along with me, you can follow my hand movements. You can send me any questions you have as well and we can talk through these theories. The focus for this lesson is really about color harmonies, complimentary colors, monochrome, and analog colors. Now we're just going to draw our outline. We're going to clean up our sketch. We go and you're able to choose color harmonies on the Procreate application in this area here. You can determine the tint and shadow on this part. Then on this part you can determine complimentary colors. As you see e.g. what color does it go with this red color. And it shows on the opposite side there. So by moving this at determines the exact front color. E.g. to find purple harmonies, you can click on this color. And yet green is the complimentary color there. You can save this color on the palette and you can use colors better. As you want. You guys to see really useful tool. You can use it to find your complimentary colors, as well as working with tint and shadow as we discussed before. And it really just makes working on the Procreate app even simpler. Let's continue this drawing outlines. Cleaning up our image. And we get the information from this course will be really useful. And it'll be really helpful in all areas of your work. You can use this knowledge in a wide variety of ways. It's helpful to ingrain this information. Having a good practice now, we're drawing our smooth lines. We are drawing and sketching cleanly, then these are all going to be colored. So we can work on our complimentary colors. Now let's work in the background and will decline the opacity, and we will open a brand new layer. For this, we want to pick a 50% gray color. We want to work on its color tonality will make it a little bit lighter. Now, on another layer, we want to make it a bit lighter because we're just establishing a background. I'll put a gray color on the background. Check the color glow, the intensity, and the tone on this color, and the darker color. So you can check these against our work. As we go. We're going to work on this combination of colors in three examples. So what do monochrome analog and complimentary color harmony? Such begin our exercise. We're going to work on complimentary colors and we're opening a new layer. As we said before, the red color on the color wheel goes with green. You can see that that moved on the color wheel to line up these colors. Okay, We're going to pick red, starting to draw outlines carefully. Keeping a nice smooth line and we're completely covering the black lines from before. So now we painted that in. What does clean this up a little bit, but that's our first, I assume that's willing red. Now to work on complimentary color, we want to use the color green there. And we're going to paint here. Again, nice smooth lines. You can take this all at your own pace. Make sure all the lines are connected. There we go. I'll just make that nice and clean. In this painting, red and green are complimentary colors. Now we're going to add shadows to form the shapes. Better. Again, we will use a lighter red, a little bit lighter. Again, we go back to the color wheel and would choose an appropriate green. Moving on to our next one will make sure the brush a little bit smaller. There we go, so we can draw our outlines with ease. If you look, there is a dark red here and also a dark green as Reds complimentary color. There's a little blue color on it as well. Again, we'll use another read, but we'll make it darker this time. You guys, It's a darker red. And we're just painting this shape. Okay? Okay, So this is composition of complimentary colors, red and green. So now we're going to work on their shadows. Making these boilers again. We're also going to paint grapes on this part. Here. If you want to follow along with me as we draw in the grapes. Remember the focus for this lesson is the complimentary colors. We're focusing on color work as our priority. Now this lower part is mixed by a black color. It's darker. Now we're using monochrome harmony, which is where we mix color with black to make it darker. Remember, you can also mix it with white to make it lighter. I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial on the course. And if you want to know more about other courses, you can always enroll on to them as well. I will see you next time and take care. Goodbye. 9. Color Harmony: Details and Perspective: Hello and welcome to this lesson. I hope you're all well. Now we're going to continue to work on our sample from the last lesson. We are going to work more on these in order to make them slightly more complex, looking slightly more realistic, and not be so simple. So we're adding in some shadows. And we'll add in highlights as well. This is where we'll work more with monochrome, an analog harmonies. Just adding in our monochrome shadows here. Then we can add a white color to make it lighter. As we're going along. Feel free to practice along with me and you can follow my hand movements. If at any point you want to pause and practice any extra bits or Cordova, a single area, a bit more, please feel free to. It's good to work at your own pace and to practice as much as possible as practice does make perfect. Here we're just going in, adding in a bit lighter areas, creating more of a highlight. Okay, there we go. So we're going to add this color for the grape as well. And actually read is a complimentary color for green. The other example is yellow and purple. Blue and orange that are in front of each other in the color wheel. So they compliment each other. They're just adding analog, lighter colors in creating more of a shadow and highlight symphony. As you can see, it's already much better. And we're now going to work on adding dark parts and then more light parts. After that, we're going to work on these stains and the light. Hey guys, So adding in some of the stains now, it's looking much better already. It gives a much more dimension as well. And this part is just becoming darker hair, adding more dimension. And it goes, and now we're going to add in more details and we will work more on it. We can use its complementary color of green. For the great branch. The brush bit thinner or I didn't ask, stayed as well. This thinner and delicate line. We can add shades and light to create harmony. We'll use a white color for the light parts. So as you can see, we can go back to the work. We can add more details. You can make any adjustments that we like. Mounting in more light. Here. If you want to follow along with me, the more you practice these techniques, more comfortable you become with them, and the easier it will become to draw upon these technical skills. We're just going to go in and we'll darken this part more. Don't forget if you have any questions. You can send those over to me and we can talk more about anything that you are concerned about or that's presenting some confusion. You may be able to see it already. But as we continue to add detail to our work, you can see the darkness gives depth to our work using a color from shades of gray. But this color is darker because it's combined with black. So we just use red and green color but with different tonalities. If you keep on practicing this, it will come naturally to you the more you work with these skills. Remember all the information is available, new resources. So you can download those at anytime and go free or resources that will have all the information in the theory. And you can learn it practically as well. To ingrain that knowledge grows already looking much, much better. The detail is getting really long way. Adding the shadow and adding the light is bringing it to life. Now for the next part, we can clarify the scrape. Even more. We working with this red palette. As she can see, we do actually use more of the light red for the upper parts. This red color is combined with more white tonality. That's really capturing the light falling on the grape. And we'll make our brush a little bit thinner. We can clean up this edge here. Okay, there we go when choosing a darker color. So you can start to add more of a shadow on the edge here underneath. Already that's looking even better. Don't forget to go to your downloadable resources. Look for all the information in there. Adding some more depths on to the grapes. And again, these are all shades that have harmony with this color. Adding in dark shades in this area, and creating even more depth to our image. So you can add more light colors as well. And we'll use the airbrush for fading, but for rough textures, we can change our brush. Now the best way to practice is to follow my hand movements so you can stop the video and watch it a few times if you need to practice. At the same time, and then resume the video. So you can take all of this at your own pace. You can see that's really starting to come together. We really establishing each individual grape, which makes our image much more believable. On the whole. We can just fading the colors slowly. It's good to have patients as we work. I'm bringing the world slowly to life. Again. We can add in a lighter color and just get a little bit more of a shine. They're bringing out tint. So it's looking really good. And we've used different shades of red for contrast throughout our work. Now remembering as well, the R-groups are curved items. They have a curvature to them, there's rotation going on. So I'll shades are curved as well. We're not shading and coloring linearly with bearing in mind the shape of the object recoloring. We're respecting the dimensions of that object. We're going back to the previous layer and opening a new layer. And we're going to choose a gray color for our work. And then we can begin to add in the shadow. We using gray because there is a shade of red in it. Slightly more neutral. Well, then we can get back to our work. So choose a light color makeup brush thinner to add some light on it. Who just finishing up here. With our light and color stains. Beautiful reflection really goes a long way. You guys, adding shadows and adding light has helped create free dimensionality to these grapes. Now, we're going to choose green and we're going to make it darker. The light is from the left side. So the right should be darker. We lower the brightness and use it as a shade. Some shadow along the lid as well. Make it a little bit lighter. And we can use it for these parts. We can see that we have good contrast between the red and the green colors. Especially when we add in the shadow and the light. Going back to the red. Now, the edge of this part has more light. As you know, downloadable resources are all available to you, so don't forget to download them. All the information is in there and that will really help as we go through the course. As you go through practicing as well, you can always send me your assignments so we can chat about the lesson and you can ask me any questions that you may have as well. The more you practice, the better you'll become practice makes perfect, as we know. Just adding a really nice strong shadow around the cusp of the lid where it's casting a shadow. The next red color is actually lighter. And actually we are using a different tonality of red color, the dark or light blue. On the other hand, we will keep the monochrome as well. So a monochrome harmony. Please do send me your practices. When you're done. You send them over. I can guide you step-by-step. Now we're just adding in all shapes and creating that monochrome harmony. So just keeping those nice and strong lines around the edges. So choose the next green color and make it light. And then we'll use it in this next part. Adding in more of a highlight now. And then we come in with our shadow. So now we've darken just little and used it. In this area. I guess, as we can see, we pay attention to contrast and apply it to our work in harmony and monochrome as well. This helps to bring the work to life. And it helps bring the complimentary colors together. Moving on to the red bars, we can actually edit this part and we'll make it darker as well. So adding in our shadow as you talked about, shutter, and then we'll use a lighter color. And we can actually go back to it's beneath layer and work more in this part with the shade will lower its opacity. So there's a red tonality in the shade. In order to keep the harmony. You're adding on that shadow onto the ground. They're the same tonality, same harmony. Choose this color and make it lighter little. And then back to its layer, is layer and we'll work more on this part. We got it. Okay, so in this lesson, we've applied contrast. We have complimentary colors, which is a really important skill. Now we removed the gray background to see how it will look. The colors become brighter. We return the gray background, the brightness will be lower. We can see clearly our vases and how they compliment each other. Now return the background. You can see the brightness dims. We go, I'll work is done, so we'll save it. And then in the next lesson we're going to work on the frame with monochrome colors. I hope you've enjoyed this lesson and I'll see you in the next tutorial. Take care and goodbye for now. 10. Color Contrast with Orange and Blue: Hello friends and welcome to this lesson. In this video, we're going to color contrast. We worked on red and green colors in previous lessons. So for today, we're going to work with orange and blue. And their contrast, depending on the color wheel, will open a new layer. I'm just setting up our workspace here. Okay? So we want to work on color contrast. We have complimentary colors, which are in the color wheel. So we'll go to our color wheel. And as we can see, there are three main colors in the color wheel. The color that is in front of each color is called a complimentary color. These colors can be changed. So e.g. there is yellow in this part in front of the color, its complimentary color is green blue. The other example is this purple color. That is complimentary to this green color. The percentage of white tonality in both of them are equal. Now we're going to sketch and then color it. For today's lesson, we can actually sketch quite quickly because we don't need the lines. We just want to have the area of our shape. So doing a rough sketch to give us the area of the shape that we're working with. We'll use objects in this work to create more of a still life. Here we can sketch a quick as we like. And then we can work on the composition. So as always, if you do feel that you want to pause the video and practice a few times and then catch up. I definitely recommend it. The more you can practice, the better. You can look at your own pace. I'm just going to draw a bunch of groups here, and it's a rough sketch. So now we're going to be more accurate. The complimentary color of the orange is blue. In the color wheel. You can see those opposite each other. Now, we're going to choose orange and use an orange color and draw our sketch. So you don't want to see any of the black lines. As a black color will change. The feeling of our work. Needs to bring up our lines here. And going over in the orange color. So just making sure Alliance connected. Actually we need to change the layer. To keep these separate from the black lines. We opened a new layer and draw our sketch again. There we go. So we'll lower the opacity of the previous layer. So we don't see those black lines. So much. There we go. We can actually edit this. If we feel that we would like to do, we can make adjustments. As we go. That looks much, much neater. Now we've got smooth lines and it's a bit more symmetrical as well. Okay, so now we can go back to our color palette and we can choose blue, which is complimentary to orange. The orange color becomes brighter, the blue color will change. It means that a monochrome contrast will be created and the intensity and purity of the color will be changed. Darkness and light will be changed as well. Connected up our lines. You can make that blue. Now we're going to change to the orange color and make it a bit lighter. Don't forget to send me your assignments and practice and if you have any questions, ask away and we can talk through your questions. Okay, So nice and neat. And just cleaned up this bottle here. So as we've changed the orange color, the blue color will be different. So this blue color is brighter as well. If you practice along with me, you can follow my hand movements as we draw. And don't forget outside of less than you can go to your downloadable resources and look at the information available there. And just making an adjustment now to this puzzle. Slightly wider. Make sure that our lines are all connected. There we go. Clean up that bottle. Okay, so now we're going to choose a darker orange. Now there are drawn outlines in your resources and these will help you to practice your drawing and also help you get better outlines at the beginning of your art journey so that you can apply the techniques that we're learning. Okay? So as you can see, I'm using the circle shapes to help create a guideline. For this particular bottle. We just need to check that all of our lines are connected. Otherwise, this is where the color goes all over the page. Okay, so lines should be connected, so we'll just check those. If you feel you're missing the timing for practice. You can pause the video and practice after my hand movements and then resume the video and really look at your own pace. You have a fill. You don't have the resources available to practice. You can use anything else, any paint, any pencil. This focus is on color. So if you didn't have access to Procreate, you could use colored pencils. He's a variety of mediums. Editing the form in this pump making any adjustments that we'd like to make. Some ringing, slightly more symmetry to that bottle. We make the color darker and we'll start shading as well. Now. This is going to add more dimension to our work. We're going to work in monochromatic harmony, adding in our shadow now, actually it's become linear. We're going to use a thinner brush and we'll work more on these faces. Okay? That's better and we'll choose lighter colors. Now we can make these parts are lighter. This bring in more of a highlight on to the bottle. Retries, a light orange color. Also. This one. Beautiful so you can start to see what the light is coming from. We've adjusted the brightness of the colors from my palette because we don't want them to be different. We're not changing the color, we're changing the tone. You've added a lighter color to the edge of the orange bottle. And also the blue. We can darken this blue color a little and shade this part around the edges. Okay, Beautiful. So now we're going to work on the grape, and since it's close to the pictures, we use complimentary colors. So we'll choose blue. The complimentary color to this vase is quite close. So we can make it darker. And then we'll use that for these parts. Starting to outline with the shadow, the individual grapes. And we can really find depth in the darkness of these areas. So we're adding dark stains to create harmony. As the grapes themselves, a blue, we use a complimentary color and we'll use the red opposite for its branch. Because it doesn't seem quite well, so we'll edit it and use the blue color, the branch instead. We're going to add a new layer now for the background will make it gray to see how it looks in gray, as you said before, it's a neutral color. There we go. Darker. So as we can see, the gray color lowers the brightness of our work, whereas the white brings out the brightness. So now actually we're going to need a darker color in this layer. Yeah, that works just as easily. So choosing this color to separate the ground and see how the colors will be in a dark background. So we'll shade underneath these pods. So it has an orange tonality, but in the previous work, we had a red tonality. Now that we've done that we're going to add in some more detail. So open its layer. You guys were going in with shadows first. Finding the depths, creating some dimension in our work. By adding details in this part. Adding some color stains here helps create the texture and you can see that we're moving in a curved form to support the curved form of the grape. That's more light in. A nice highlight brings more life to all work and will fade. These light colors. Gradually, will slowly fade them. And we can fade these shades very smoothly. We didn't even need to change our brush. Building up the textures. Here. We're respecting the form. Of the grape. Now we need a darker color of this blue. We're going to use it for the branch here. That's quite a delicate line. We add dark shaded these parts to show more of the depth. That's looking good there. Remember you can practice this and pause the video. I'm filling up really nice layers of depth now. So after that, we'll use the lighter color. Here. We're adding on more light on the grape to even suggest bit of a reflection. Taking up the light plastic. So again, we'll pick the darker color. Then we can feed them as well. Mr. couple of lighter details. Now, there's little bit of light on the branch as well. Just put that in. Okay, so fantastic. This work has been the complimentary color contrast of blue and orange. So we've had a green and red color contrast that we worked with before. And now we've done the blue and orange, and I hope you've enjoyed this lesson. We'll work on the other complimentary colors, yellow and purple and the composition. And I will see you in the next tutorial. Take care and goodbye. 11. Yellow and Purple Still Life: Hello all and welcome to this lesson. First we want to open a new layer. And as usual, we're going to draw out our basic form using the gray color. You want to follow along with my hand movements and practice as we go through the lesson. And of course you can send me any questions that pop up. So we're choosing a medium brush for drawing. I'm going in with our gray color to roughly sketch out our drawing. It's in the beginning, we draw our basic form. And we're drawing some objects are vowels and a bowl. It can be quite rough. And our first sketch, we're just sketching it out. And we're getting an idea of the placement of the composition of our piece. We can use these lines and freely sketch or drawing. It goes after finishing, will paint it with the colors and get to know more of the complimentary color contrast, less time working with purple and yellow. So in this composition, we want to use complimentary colors from the color wheel of colors to paint our work. So we want to see how we can create a harmony in our coloring. For this lesson, we're going to use purple and yellow, which are in harmony. You can see them opposite each other on the color wheel facing each other. This shows that they are complimentary colors. Like say, you wanted to paint in this jar in yellow. So first off, you will open a new layer. And we'll bring down the opacity of our previous layer as well. As it's yellow. It will be seen better. In our drawing. They've outlined the jaw completely and pulled color to paint it fully. Now for our ball, we will choose the color purple. First. We're outlining the bowl. And then we'll pull the color to paint it fully. Just connect that line doesn't work this way. So we must add a new layer and outline the bowl again separately. In the new layer. Recolored the mouth of the jar. Now we're making a darker purple and we're outlining the bowl with it. As you can see, the outline, the edges. Just clean that up slightly. So this is the base of our work. So from here, we now want to add in some more detail. So we open a layer and we'll test a gray background to see how it looks. As you can see, it became less bright as it almost lost its brightness of colors by this gray background will change the background to a lighter gray and see what happens. It dividing it into two parts. And now we're testing gray in different tonalities, in different layers to see how the effect, the purity of the colors of objects. You can experiment with different shades of gray and see what it does to your colors. Just shading under the updates with a darker purple and gray tonality. This also helps show the direction of our light. Okay? So now looking at the bowl inside the bow, there will be a pair, which we use a yellow tonality for the pair. Because we're just drawing the pair inside the bowl. We'll begin to add some more dimension by shading the pair with a darker yellow. Just like say, you're going around the edge in creating that shadow. Then we can fade the colors. We use a thinner brush or pen to outline and darken the edges and to make our work neater. So I'm just smoothing out those lines, giving them a little bit more clarity. A little bit darker. Here. Now we can put some spots on the pair skin as well, create a little bit more texture. Now we'll make a lighter color and we're going to apply it onto the upper part of the pair. Guess we use this light color and the thin brush for the stem just here. Also in our yellow tonality. It's adding in a shadow. So we're going to add some small dots or spots on its skin to, to show the texture a bit more, make it a bit more realistic. Respecting the shape of the pair as well. And creating that illusion where we place our shadows so we just darkening the bottom there with as a dip in the pair. If you want to practice along with me, you're just going to open a new layer and use a dark purple to shade the part below the pair. And inside the bowl. This is where a shadow has been caused from our light source being blocked out by the pair. Use different tonalities of the same color we are using to show the light and the shade. Now we'll go back to the layer we opened for the bowl and we can change the brush as well. Okay, so we're going to make inside the bone lighter and then we'll shade it. After that. It's adding in some light. And actually saw we did change our brush for this bed as well. So it's a different texture to our pair. Again, would choose a darker color less than the brightness and the shape because we want to show the dimension of the bowl. So giving it that depth and the light helps to create a three-dimensional illusion. As we shine a light on the upper edge of objects like this bowl. So we keep it on touched. Without shading. That upper edge would choose a dark purple to shade the bowl. We're making it dark on that right side where the light source is coming from the left. The darkest area is on the right. Very nice. So we just need to be careful as well about the extra unwanted lines are spots. And we'll just remove those as soon as they pop up. Now we're going to go back to the layer in which we drew the jaw. And we'll make the yellow color of it brighter. So you have a lighter yellow. And we'll just lighten the edges of this side of the jaw. The light is hitting it from that left. Again, we've just made it lighter. We'll apply colors, move through like this. And it gives it a little bit of a rough texture too. Now we're going to darken our background color and shade in the side of the jaw. As you can see, we're moving our brush like this, several horizontal lines which creates this circular form of the jaw to so we really want to respect the form of the objects that we're coloring. As we color them in. You guys, you've added a little black to reduce the brightness. If you want to show you the brightness on the surface of an object, like things, accessories, jewelry, glasses, gold or other metals. We can make that background color brighter. Bringing more shadow on the right side. This way we can show the brightness and we make a harmony in the colors we are using. Now again, we choose our light color, we fade the collar hares. We don't want to have clear lines. Alright, so it's almost finished. So this is how we create a contrast by using yellow and purple color. So you can see that clearly there. Now we're going to make a contrast in another work with a single color and it's different tonalities. So we'll use monochrome to create harmony between shade and light. This technique is going to be really useful going forward with your work. If you practice it and send me any questions that you have. In fact, we're going to create shade and light using monochrome by adding white to lighten it, and adding black to darken it in a gray background. So let's work a little bit more on it. Adding these lighter areas here. Now we're going to save our work. I hope you've enjoyed this lesson. Remember, keep on practicing. The more you can practice, the better if you have any questions, send them on over. Goodbye for now and I will see you in the next lesson. 12. Using Red Tones: Hello all and welcome to a new Procreate tutorial. In this tutorial, we will be focusing on red color tones and we're going to work on this sample from before. So we need to open a new layer from the layers tab on the top. Then opening the colors to how we choose a red color tone. Start working on the new layer that we have opened if you want to follow along with me. So after selecting the appropriate brush, we start by working on the outlines. In this way, we create nice smooth outlines. You feel you need to pause the video at all. That's absolutely okay. Can work in your own pace. So working in this way will help us speed up the processes. So you can follow my hand movements and the techniques that I'm using to help practice. And just make sure you got all your lines connected up here. After we've drawn the outline of this part completely, we drag the color from the top right corner of the screen and add it to our shape. And it fills up the whole area. That means that we've missed some parts of the outline. So it's very important to complete the outline. Another way of doing this is to color it ourselves. And for that we select the brush and the appropriate size for it and start adding the red color tone. I'm working on the appropriate layer. It helps us to add the color easier without being worried that the other parts are being damaged or being overridden or anything like that. And also adding the outline helps us not to cross the line when coloring as well. Make sure you practice this. So you can become even more familiar with the tools of Procreate and use them confidently and comfortably. The more confident you can be, the better able you'll be able to release your creativity when drawing. Okay, so at this point, we do not need to have the complimentary color for this one. We're working on the red tones. So add the necessary details by choosing the right tonality and of course, the brush. Adding in some shadow. Now we will open a new layer. And after selecting the right color from the color section, we'll adjust the size of the brush and start working on this next part. As it was also mentioned before, when you draw a shape like the one we did here, if we hold the pencil at the end, shape will be adjusted. Then we simply add the color from the color section to it. In this way, you've added more of the white color to the color we were using. And we keep working on the color harmony in our work. So we've selected a slightly darker color to work on the lower part of the bowl. And again, we select the appropriate brush size to work on these outlines. First, start coloring lower part of the ball after we've increased the size of our brush. Useful. So now we can combine these layers together. And as it was mentioned before, we simply use our fingers and pinch them together. In this way. Moving the layers to the right places you can easily work on different parts. And don't be afraid of applying changes as you can always undo or redo your actions on the program. So it's a great program for experimenting and having a play around with what you'd like to create. Okay, so now we're going to continue to work on a separate layer. Will make sure that the color layer we have added to the lower part of the bowl is complete and smooth and that we're not missing a bit. So we'll cover these purple areas here. I'm just smoothing out all of these lines. I think the nice and neat. We're going to erase the background we previously added as well to see how the whole work looks without that background actually having only the red color tones on the screen. So you've removed the background. And we just have to make sure as we're working that we're doing it on the appropriate layer. Now we can open a new layer this way. Now after selecting the appropriate color and brush, we'll start working on the fruit. Is all red pair, but just roughly sketching it there. And then we can fill that in. So we'll color it. Now again, we can select a slightly darker tonality of the same color tone we're using from the beginning and start adding the lights and the shadows onto the fruit. To selecting a slightly lighter color tone. Now, I will add the lights on the fruit in this way. Again, using the darker color tone, we can reduce the size of the pen and start adding more details onto the fruit. All right guys, now we want to add another shading layer for it. This needs to be under the layer on which we've drawn the fruit so we can add in the shadow. This is how we add in the shading layer. Make sure as well that you don't forget the details. There we go. So still on this layer, we're going to select a lighter color tone. We're going to start working on the edges of the bowl. In this way. About this stage, we're actually done with the sketch. And what we need to do is work on the lights and the shadows using the appropriate colors of the red tonality, creating contrast and harmony. We're using the complimentary colors for our still life drawing. We can bring in more dimension. Again, with selecting the darker color tone, we're starting to work on the lower part of the bowl and adding the necessary shading layers to create its shape and its form. Now we need to change our brush, which we've easily done by going onto the brush section at the top of our screen. By adding the color with a different brush, we're also adding a different texture to the external part of the bowl. So when we're going to apply the same texture to the internal parts of the bowl. We select the appropriate color first and then add the texture with the brush that we've chosen. So let's now start working on the vars. Two. First, we selected the appropriate color with the right tonality. And then we start to work. Adding the darker parts we have in the vowels at this point. Now this is the time to add the lighter parts, so we select the color tone and keep them working in this way. Now we're going to add the shadow of the objects we've drawn. The first we need to do it on a separate layer beneath the one we've drawn the objects on. And second, we're going to use a gray color tone within the same tonalities with the red. The gray we're using has some red in it as well. And we also need to change the brush from the brush section. So you start adding the shadows on this separate layer. And this is the shadow these objects have costed on the surface. It's time to create some color contrast on our work. But first we need to go to the appropriate layer. We're going to use the red color that has a different tonality as we've added more or less of the white color to it in this way. There we go. So we're adding in the shadow and we're using the same color with different tonalities to create contrast in our work. Harmony happening here, the same red color that we're using from the beginning, come slightly lighter or darker. Just a 1% difference by adding either white or black to the color tone. The work is done at this stage. What we need to do right now is to combine the different layers we've worked on together. Something like this, pinching them together. Now we can see we have this sample. It shows contrast between the complimentary colors. Here we have a sample which contrasts between the same family colors. So like always, will save the file we've worked on by going to the settings. And then our next step is to review the lesson for ourselves and see what we can take forward in our drawing and painting. So for instance, a contrast between the complimentary colors is going to be useful while we're working on a face and skin tone colors. In that case, we're going to use the white and pink color tones and we add white or black to create the different tonalities. And the color will contrast can be useful when we are working on different samples or still-life or even decoration to reach the color harmony we're looking for. I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial practice away and I'll see you next time. 13. Valentines Complete Artwork: Figures: Hello and welcome to this lesson. I hope you're all well. In this lesson, we're going to learn about the psychology of colors and work with the red, warm color to colors have a different effect and our mentality in health and can be shown on our behavior. The harmony of colors in cinema, commercials, cartoons, characters can have lots of effects on humans. E.g. we can use green for a patient character and red for anger or danger. So there is a story behind every color and it really worked with our associations. There are lots of ways that color can affect us. So keep this in mind as we work for today's lesson. The focus is color and the feelings it subconsciously brings to the surface. So e.g. if we want to show a space of love, we use pink, purple, and red to show love. Or if you want to show dislike and hate. We can use yellow, green, and dark colors. If you want to show code feeling, or calmness, we can use shades of blue is worth noting that gray scale also counts amongst colors. White has a lighter feeling or black can have a darker feeling. To begin our work today, we're going to open a new layer. As always. There we go. And to begin, we're going to draw in freehand just a rough sketch. Here we're illustrating an image of love. So as disgust for love, we would use red tones, pink, purple. These colors are warm and have associations of femininity. They also are associated with passion. If you want to follow along my hand movements and practice with me. We'll sketch and then we're going to add more details in the next layer. And we'll draw in with a darker line. Now. We don't want to keep the lines. We're just using them for our sketch. And as we're going through this, if you feel you want to practice some more and pause the video and work at your own pace, please do. And if you have any questions, you can send them over that as you know, downloadable resources are all available for you, so don't forget to download those. All the information is in there. Here we go. This is our rough sketch. For this illustration, we're going to use warm colors, like red and pink. You've worked on colors and their psychological meanings. So for this lesson, we're going to use colors like shades of red to show love. So we've done a rough sketch, and now we're going to open a new layer and work on more details on this new layer. I'm moody this so that it doesn't interfere with our sketch. We can keep those separate. So we'll lower the resolution and we use a darker color. Here will open a new layer. And we'll use a studio brush in order to be linear. Okay, So we've saved our brush. I'm just adding a name for it in order to not forget the brush that we're working with. So we'll go back and choose this brush and then add it into this part here. Now that we've done that, we can go back to our layer and we'll work more on our Valentine sketch. Okay, So we'll return to our drawing here and just adjust the brush size to start outlining his hair. We sketched and we lower its opacity. So now we're going to add in some more details. Using a pen to work linearly. So isn't a medium brush working linearly? Adding in detail lines. Adding in the detail needs to be edited. We can always replace the lines. It's okay to adjust things. At this point, we're really working out the shape of our drawing as we put in all these details as we set the thumb lines. Now as we can see, we can replace all the details if needed. So it's a creative playground here. You can really, you can have fun with it. That doesn't matter if it first, it's not right. You can go in and change things. There's 910. We don't need them, we're just using them for sketching to give us a guide for later. Now actually, I think here is better to make the face a bit bigger. You guys are making more adjustments. As you draw along with me, you can make adjustments as well. Really make this drawing your own. We're editing our sketch where we need these lines will just be a guide for us. This is where our hand and the arm is going. Now I'll sketch is done so we remove the layers that we don't need. And we're going to work on this layer. So we've lowered its opacity. We're adding in a new layer. We want to use warm colors. For this one. We're choosing a pink color in which it's red, tonality is predominant. And we're using a medium brush. So we're exploring colors that remind us of love. In this, we're going to move our layers under this layer to know what we're doing. Making it a little bit lighter. I'm just gonna make the tip of the brush smaller as well. But just making sure we're not running over the lines. You can see, you can adjust our brush as well. So using dark colors for the shade of this part, you can nick quite a strong line. We've increased the light and the brightness. A bit of a highlight. And we'll go and add some more shade as well. I actually will make our colors darker. For these darker parts. We've made the tip of the brush that is flatter. We should make the part of the handle lighter as well. We'll come back to that. The reason for this is that the hand is actually separated from the body. It's in front of the body. We don't want to blend the two together. Fading these colors a bit. All the tonalities we've used a red and we can emphasize more when some parts need more red tonality, like here, recoloring this part Him. And we can use a thinner tip of our brush for the edges, so it doesn't matter we cross the lines because we can control it easily. We have these different layers. We can work with who just going in here and darkening the shades even more. Now we'll choose a darker color for the other hand. The more we go towards the right side, the darker it will become as we further away from our light source. You're imagining here that the light is coming in from the left. You can really see this contrast between the two hands will keep the lines. Now. We will remove them and emphasize some parts towards the end, the lines are really useful when the coloring. So we'll keep those as a guide. I'm just going back over and adding in some more of the light shades. Who does highlighting now with a light is hitting our character. We can remove some extra parts as well. So continuing down now, as you follow along with mean, don't worry if you feel you want to pause the video or speed it up. At any point, you can work along at your own pace. This is really for you. This is your journey in art and in color psychology. Now as we do this Do have a think about how the color makes you feel. Psychology and color is about feeling. It's about mood and how it affects our audience. Gradually all colors going towards a red as we continue on. And actually we used a monochrome contrast in this work. So it means that we use one color in combination with black and whites. I'm just cleaning up these edges here. We can adjust our brush to make that slightly easier. We're just removing those extra colors which are crossed over the line here. Okay. Now we're going to work on her hair. We use a very dark red for her hair and keep that nice and separated, giving it some contrast. For this section of our drawing, we're actually going to draw the outline of her hair first. And then once you've drawn, the outline will go in and we'll color it all in carefully so that we're not going over the lines there. Adjusting the brush as we need to. Of course, you can take all of this at your own pace. I've done a lot of coloring, So do you feel quite confident with it? But if you wanted to go slower, that is absolutely alright. When we're doing the top of her hair and if needed, we can add some parts of our work. You saw we made a little bit of an adjustment to the curls just a moment ago, which is in the color for this part down here. Use the Eyedropper tool for that and my darkening this part a little bit. And then we can go in and adjust our shades, shade underneath the hand. And along the chest and the neck. Moving on now to the wings will choose a new red tonality for the wings, which is this color actually going onto a new layer set underneath our previous layer. So first of all, we're just specifying our outline like this. And when our lines are all connected up, we can color that and we'll just check these lines. And then we go to the paint dropper tool. That's coming very useful there. And when you're done with your practices, as always, you can send those over to me and I can help guide you. But it's best to keep on practicing all the time. Practice makes perfect. And the more you can practice, the better you'll become. And you can really play around with your practice as well. You can come up with various different versions of the lesson we're doing here today. They're just adding in more shade on these wings along the edges of our feathers on the top of the wing. Actually I think will go a little bit lighter. And now we'll use the same color for the other wing again on this separate layer. So having these separate layers is really helpful as it means that we can actually draw over our lines. Knowing that later on will be on another layer which will cover them all go underneath. So we can separate areas of our image. We're just coloring that m. Okay, so now we'll go in and use a lighter color to create the lines on knowing this nice as it just gives us some more distinction to authors. And now we're gonna move on to our other character. So we'll choose a darker color now for the other character. Like this color, we're just giving him a bit of an outline like this. The reason is to show its color contrast on the dimension in order to know the character is behind the other character. So we're also working with the light here, as well as playing with the red tonalities. This character is automatically sitting in more of a shade. They are in the background compared to the character who's in the foreground and closer to the light. Which is why they have the lighter colors. As we can see, all the tonalities are from a red color. And that is showing walk, we're in a warm pallet and it's showing love. It shrinks excitement and kindness, shrunk. Passion. Red is a warm color, which is why it's excellent. And things like this, which is like a Valentine's painting. Now we'll come around and we'll work on the other hand, needs to sit on the layer above the layer of our first character. The hand is becoming bigger for this character because this character is bigger than the other character, we've chosen a darker color and we're going to shade this part as well. Remember if you have any questions, you can message me and we can work through, we can problem-solve together. It's now going to add color onto the face of our character, will make this color light and use it for the face. Just clean up these lines a little bit more. Now we just use this color for the face and we'll make it dark or light. Now working on the eyes, we use this color for the hair of the character as well. And then we can add shades with a darker color as well. So again, we're just cleaning up our colors here. We'll choose this color and clean up our outline. Now, use this color. Just moved that all out now. And as we can see, our general work is done and we've used warm colors. So now we'll remove the lines and work more and add more details to make it better, make it more professional. So our sketch layer is gone. Now, I hope you've enjoyed this lesson. Remember to keep on practicing and I will see you in the next tutorial. Take care and goodbye for now. 14. Valentines Complete Artwork: Final Details: Hello and welcome to this lesson. So in this video, we're going to add more details to our works. We are continuing our psychology or colors case study with an image of love. We're going to choose this color and we'll do it all in a new layer. If you follow along with me, the shades will become clearer and then lines will become more accurate. In this lesson, we're making our brush thinner and we'll start outlining our work here. So make it all clear as we go. If you want to draw along with me, It's the best way to practice. And if you need to pause the video at any point, or if you want to fast-forward or slow it down, that's absolutely okay. Remember to always work at your own pace. We're learning and this part of our art journey. So Arctic made our brush thinner and outlining our work will start to add hatches, try work later on to working on shading as well. Now we're just clearing up our outline and making it look more professional. Following along, defining all of these areas. Each part will choose its color and we'll edit shades of every part within him out using red tonalities. And it also considering the light source and how that affects these different areas and how we can separate them. This level, we don't have a black lines anymore. We've removed our sketching lines. We're just working with the color now. There is another color in this pot and the hands. So as we use less hand pressure for the parts that we want to fade, we use a dark color for this part. Okay, and we'll outline every part with the color of that part. Now we can go an outline her head. Let me get and we'll do the same as well for the wings. Now this is our own sketch, so we can draw our sketch, we can make any adjustments. Our goal in this lesson is to create contrast in monochrome and have meaning in our work. We've chosen red and we're using the psychology of that color. This color is warm and it shows love and excitement, it shows passion. We've chosen this color, considering its meaning as well. So e.g. we don't use warm colors for advertising cleanses. It's better to use cold colors in which white tonality is predominant. So we should use colors that show cleanliness for some things such as that. So in our work now we're starting to think about how we can use color to express a feeling without necessarily drawing it. So it's helping enhance our work. When we look at an image, we have a subconscious reaction and color really works to that. So e.g. for toxic products. It's better to use attractive colors that stand out. So we have to pay attention. Take notice of these things in our work. Just outlining now, her shoulders and her neck grab these colors. Okay, so now we're going to work on the other character. So his body is okay. So we'll start working on his face. You want to work on his face details. Making these outlines clear. Then working on the detail. As we go, We're working on the character's face colors and editing. His face does making little adjustments until we're happy. Case, we'll use a darker tonality of this color for his nose. We've divided his face into two parts with the same color as the woman character would choose this color. We'll add shading to this part as well. Just cleaning up the outline on the eyes, the lips. This is the general form of our work. Will remove the extra pods and we're going to work more on the details. So we'll add in more details. Now. We're going to choose the skin color of her face and we'll make it darker here. We can create an eye for this part. And every part we choose its color and we'll make it darker. And as we know, all colors or shades of red in this drawing. So we're choosing the color according to every part, and then we'll make it darker or lighter. E.g. which is this color. And we'll add shades to this part. In making this a little bit darker. And you can follow along and you can practice with me as we draw. That's her lips just finished off and there is a spot in this part. Now we'll choose the color of her hair and we'll make it lighter. So we're going to make a brush thinner as well. You guys. So if you follow along with me now we're going to create the texture of her hair. You guys were drawing lines and we're giving more form to it. We'll edit this part because the color crossed the line there. So we'll keep these lines nice and crisp, nice and clean. We are. So now we're going to work on the other character. And we'll use a lighter color for his hair. Just starting to add in lines like this is more texture there. Okay, and then we'll work on his eyes as well. And add in the details on the face. So we'll create two red earrings for the woman now. Then we go and then we'll shade with a lighter color as well. Here we go. So let's get some nice color and nice dimension on it. Now. Details, I'm making a big change here. Now that we've done most of our drawing here we got the journal form, we've added in more details and we cleaned up the lines and the area of shade. So we can start to put in a background for our work. So we've added a dark color here just to see how that looks. We can actually add hatches with a light color as well. So we're having an experiment here, playing around with the background. Just having a little look and seeing what works. We've not had a plan for this work. We've used our mind, we used our imagination to draw it without a plan. We're doing everything to make our illustration better. And really playing with the art, playing with the tools that we have available to us. There are so many ways we can take this drawing is really up to us. I think now we're going to open up a new layer for our hands. We can remove extra parts later. It's not a problem. So again, just having a little bit of a play with our work. I'm going to color the same. We'll try not to cross the line where we've been drawing from our imagination and going truly creative freehand. There's not as much control. We can't control too much when we have mental work like this because we didn't have a plan for it, but we can apply our feelings changes every time as it's such a free mental work. So we can make adjustments and we can really experiment with our work. We can play with what we're drawing here. So there is a freedom to working like this. Just clean up these lines here. Again, we're trying not to cross over onto the hands are making the hands are holding the heart between them. I'm just going to darken these parts a little bit. Adding in some more shade. And we'll remove the extra parts on the hands as well. Not just going in and adding in some lights to these parts. It's almost like a highlight or reflection. And we can remove the background as well to see what will happen. I think now we can test another background as well as part of the beauty Procreate. So really free-space to experiment. So we're going to use a, another brush to give texture to our work. Okay, now this brush has a stone texture. The thing actually isn't also good, so we'll remove it and we'll test another brush. I think I'm going to try this brush here. Now we carry the ground. Shouldn't be too dark. Just going to talk in this part a little bit. Okay, that's enough. At this level, we've used different shades of red in this color lesson. And this color is warm and it is the symbol of love. That's a common association that many, many people have for this color will increase the shade. Now of this part, we use a medium brush and add dark shades to these parts. Helping the outline here on our second character. Beautiful, it's now we can save our work. Of course we can go and we can add more details later on if we feel that we'd like to, we can make adjustments at anytime. If we feel that it's needed. It's better to make some parts of the wings a bit lighter. So I'm just gonna go in there. We're just reacting now to our background and making little adjustments to help these wings stand out. We're already using contrast here. I will just choose this color here and we'll make it a little bit lighter. I hope you've enjoyed this lesson and don't forget to send me your assignments and ask your questions. Please keep on practicing at home. Take care of yourself and I'll see you in the next tutorial. Of course, you can make adjustments. You can work however you like to. This is your art journey. And I'll be here for any questions you have. I'll see you next time. Goodbye for now. 15. Colors Used in Branding: Explained: Hello there and welcome to a new tutorial. In this lesson, we're going to talk more about the psychology of colors. And we're especially going to focus on how to use different colors in branding and advertisement to convey the messages that we want. So the first example would be this picture, which is an advertising shot for ketchup. The main color that has been used is red. As you can see in this picture. The color red for this advertisement is inspired by the tomato itself. If we use the color purple for the packaging of our ketchups, the color would be misguided for our customers and they cannot find what they're looking for easily. So the purple column might be so Ms. Guiding that our customer parses the aisle and does not buy the ketchup. So it's very important to choose a color and a design for our packaging that truly introduces what is inside the box. And if our customer cannot easily see what is inside a bottle, they can associate the colors and design with the ingredients. E.g. the illustration and design that has been done for this product uses the color green alongside the red of the tomatoes to suggest its freshness. The color green does not only suggests the freshness of the ingredients, the designer has tried to use the colors correctly to convey its message better. As we've talked about the color wheel and went for it together. You might well remember that green and red are two of the complimentary colors. So the designer has tried to use the color green for the layouts and backgrounds. And we can see how well the complimentary colors actually complete one another in work when used together. Another branding and advertising tactic is using the picture of the tomato on the product like this one. In this way, we showed the customers what exactly they are buying and also we mentioned the freshness of the ingredients being used. So it's very important to select the proper colors for our packaging and also for the brand. The colors need to introduce the brand and the product perfectly. When we're selecting the colors for an edible product, we need to choose the colors that temp the customers to buy and be appetite stimulants. If we had to choose the color blue for the packaging of these ketchups, they might be mistaken for the detergents and laundry products. For a product like ketchup, the color blue might detach our customers from us as they won't be willing to buy what they see. These are the main points we need to consider while selecting the colors that are edible products. Alongside these points, we need to consider the shape and size of the packaging as well. For edible products, as it was already mentioned, we need to use colors that are appetite stimulant. And in our color palette, the warm colors can have that effect. So this is why in places such as restaurants, we see more of the warm color tones being used in their interior design to increase people's appetite. The next example we're going to talk about is the color palette being used for Pepsi? First of all, it's a very familiar color palette for everyone. It means that these colors can easily be associated with the brand Pepsi. The same colors with the exact same codes are going to be used for any Pepsi product. And if any of these colors change, even if a little bit the product would not have been recognized as Pepsi. The color codes that transparency and opacity and all these factors and elements are very important to the brand. Also, with the passage of time, people identify the colors for their transparency and intensity. Easily associate it with the brand, even if they do not see the name or the tagline. Now the same goes with Coca-Cola, the logo type, and the color-code has always been the same red tone for this brand. And this has been so long that people have known this red for this brand that they may enter shop, go to the beverages section and just take one Coca-Cola without reading the name just by seeing the color. One thing that is often seen is other minor or newly established brands tend to imitate the same font or color to use the popularity of one well-known brands, such as Coca-Cola. But if one pays attention to the logo, they can identify the true brand they are looking for. When some brands do that, it means that they take the color-code, the font that that particular brand is using, and they use it for their own. And in this way, they attract the pupils attention to buy their products. Now when we want to talk about different logos, we need to go through the same process of selecting the best colors for them. E.g. Disney uses a blue and white color palette for its logo. A theme that has been preserved in all the business cards. The dresses with the logo and everything they put their logo on. This can be said that all the logo types and colors have a character of their own. And this is why we need to pay attention to some certain points while designing them. The first one goes to the color-code we select for the brand that is going to stick with it and be used all the time. Now these color codes are going to be used on all the shopping bags, the business cards, you name it, whatever comes with the brand. For instance, a Chanel product will always have the black and white color code for all its packaging and cards. For Disney, we use this exact blue color to everything that comes to the brand, such as the product's packaging, advertisements, et cetera. This is all a part of brand identity that is so crucial to it and helps our brand to be better recognized and after some time, familiar for people. The color plays a very important role here, as it tends to be seen even before the logo itself is seen. So it can immediately connect with the audience and bring out there good memories. And this is what attracts people's attention, attempts them to buy again and again. Someone might see this special blue color on a package without seeing the sign immediately know it as a Disney product. And this is the power of colors. And this goes for all the brands in different products. Another sample can be potato chips and their branding and packaging. The color palettes usually used for this type of product is orange and yellow. The complimentary color for yellow and orange is blue. So we can use the color blue with the other two. This is because of the psychological impact of the colors on our minds. We like to see harmonized colors alongside each other. This is scientifically proven that colors can have that kind of impact on us. And when science, art and colors come together and work hand in hand, we can create beautiful things. Again, we go back to the first sample. Here we have them together. If you go to a shop, if you are a Pepsi fan, you will immediately go to the blue. And if you're a Cola fan, you'll go to the red. These brands are forever known by this red and blue color code. No matter what kinds of beverages or other products these brands produce, they need to use the exact same color codes so they remain recognizable. Look at this Pepsi logo is round shape with its colors joining the logo type that has the same round shape, complete one another and there's an unattached trouble part of this brand identity. Brands need to use the same color codes and logo types throughout their works and all the different products that they may produce. Because this is their brand identity and what makes them known to that audience. Colors, shapes, forms, and fonts are all very important to be used accurately and constantly together to keep a brand known to its audience. Thank you for watching this tutorial. I hope you've enjoyed it. Colors play an important role in art and also in our lives. And when we learn their psychological points and how we need to use them, we can achieve so much. I'll see you in the next tutorial. Goodbye. 16. Portrait Features: Skin: Hello friends and welcome to this lesson. In this video, we are going to work on portrait coloring. As always, we've opened a new layer and we are going to open a new layer and sketch and I with a gray color first. And this is going to be a guiding layer for us. We using this gray color as a guide as we work through and we'll work on different tonalities in our work today. We will start sketching in the new layer. If you want to follow along my hand movements and practice along with me, the more you can practice, the better. And if you feel you want to pause the video at any point so that you can catch up, but it's absolutely okay if you have any questions, feel free to send them over. We're just sketching the eye, the eyelid, and the space between the I and the eyebrow. We're just going do a rough sketch here. First. We're just doing the sketch roughly adding some detail as well. Adding our lines and we're checking our sketch consistently as we go. And if it's okay, we'll open a new layer and we can begin to work even more on the sketch. Okay, So I've checked my work and at this point I'm happy. I'm going to open a new layer and lower the opacity on this new layer. We're making a color darker now. And we can begin to just clean up our outlines here. Going over our rough sketch. I guess we're just meeting up. I'll guide here and we'll start to work as well on the pupil of the eye. So making this outline nice and clear. And we're specifying the area of the eyelid as well. Now if you feel you're missing any of the timing for practice, please do pause the video and practice after my hand movements and then resume the video so you're working at your own pace. As we go through these lessons. We're just going to delete the previous layers. We have this nice and clean outline to work from adding a new layer. So now we're going to create the skin color and we'll delete some colors from my palette in order to add new colors into our palette area. And for this lesson, we're just going to go for neutral skin tone. So it won't be very dark and it won't be very light, just a neutral color. We're just adjusting the color wheel now, like this. So the more color is bright, the more has white color and the darker color is the more has a combination of gray and black. So before we start coloring will create the colors we want, and then we'll add those to our palette. So we're preparing all the darker and lighter colors. We can add more colors to my palette as we go. If we'd like. It is forming our colors down here in the palette so we can keep on using these all the way along there. And actually if we decide we want more space, we can delete these colors underneath to add new colors to our palette. Okay, Now we're going to use a neutral color with a medium brush. And at first we'll add a general color in this layer, and then we'll work more on it. So we're letting our foundation fill the space. For now. We can adjust our brush as well. If that helps. Now should we going to make our sketch a bit bigger? Like so? And then we can continue coloring our sketch. As you can probably see, the more we add color and go over our previous brushwork, the darker it becomes. Much you're following along. The movement of our hands should be like this. While we're coloring. Now we need more light colors and we use this color. And then we'll make it lighter. If it's difficult, we can create colors manually as well. In this section, we're just adjusting the tone here. We can adjust the opacity of this layer. Under the eyebrow. It's going to be brighter. Here. And the upper part of the chin, we lighter as well. So as we can see, the contrast is beginning to form between this color and the skin color, which is very close. Just adding in more light. And the upper part of the eyebrow is lighter as you can see. About adding in our lysines. In pots. The eyelid as well is gonna be darker, so we're just adjusting the color. We choose a dark color and add darkness to the edge of the eyelid. And when we add eyelashes, this part will be seen a lot. So we'll lighten this area as well. Through just made the eyelid dark. Lighting it slightly. When we add in our eyelashes. This part of the eye is brighter, highlighting around the tear duct here. Now the line of the eyelid should be darker. So we've made our brush thinner and we're making a clear outline here. We're specifying this line and I'll work is becoming more complete as we add more specificity. You guys now if we draw the line incorrectly, we should go and edit it. We can make adjustments. It's all okay. If we miss draw a line, we can just go in and edit this part. It's going to be lighter because it's the place of the eyelashes. Just following along with me as we color in around the eye. And again, we'll just darken under this area using a medium brush. And we're fading as well because we don't want it to be completely linear. There's more of a gentle fade under the eye. And again, we're using a lighter color for this part where our eyelashes will sit. We can darken it just a little bit. I'm just adding those onto the palette as well as we can come back to those colors later very easily. So you can see we created the skin colors palette in order to grab those colors again easily later on. So I'm just going to work more on this edge and we'll add light shades onto it as well as the dogs were creating a balance here. And we're clarifying that line around the eye and just make this area slightly darker. Now, the shades of this color in the classic parts, we can create the colors we want really easily just going in to this area here, we can make adjustments that we need. Going in here with a darker tone and now we want the lighter color for this part. Okay, so now we're going to work on the lower part of the eye. You can see we're going to work smaller in order to see what we're doing. So working quite close to our painting to see everything properly. We have this combination for the upper eyelid as well as balance of dark and light and it shouldn't be linear. So using the fade colors, a fading together. Now there is darkness in this part as well with fading out gently. And we can go back to our color palette and just make slight adjustments for darkness, which is open a new layer. Then we fade. Along this line. We can add light parts as well. In this layer. We're just shading the lights in order to fade it. Again with a lighter color. So you can see we're creating this contrast to softly. As we work. Through worked on the upper part of the skin. We'll use a lighter color again. And then we'll come and work on this part. Because we're just fading this all out, creating a nice soft texture and we'll darken this part a little bit. Guys, as we can see, we have different tonalities of skin color. And we're beginning to create all of these skin tonalities here, softly fading those out. Now we're going to do the brush that's actually suitable for skin texture. We'll choose this brush. We're just moving it to make it more easily accessible. They're just choosing the texts that we want. This is good and we can change its density as well as you can see. It's very adjustable. Me that smaller. Now we want to create the texture of the skin because there are some lines on the skin. When we look closely. Again, we want to use a darker color for this part in order to show the lights and the shades on the skin. So we're really just highlighting that contrast now. So we can create texture a little on the whole parts with this color. Loose due at the end, in the last layer. We've added the colors. Now we're going to use a dark color for this part and we'll make it a bit darker rigor. And we're going to test another texture as well. Not quite that one. Choosing from the texture section. Middle adjustment, I'm going for a darker color. You can see it's becoming more and more like skin. The more we begin to layer up with these different tonalities. There we go. So the skin is always created and it has a texture is looking much better there. Next we're going to work on the details of the eyebrow. And after that, the pupil as well. Now the part of the tear duct here is more light and that light has a texture. Okay. Then just this part as well. Use a darker color. This part should be darker here. I just want to specify this line bit more, making that clearer. As you can see. Here, we've just darkened this part. That is part one, and I'll see you again to continue our drawing in part to take care and goodbye for now. 17. Portrait Features: Eyebrows: Hello everyone and welcome to another Procreate tutorial. In this tutorial, we're going to work on the eyebrows now of the sketch that we were working on last time. So first we need to create a palette for the eyebrow when Jane that just along the bottom row here. So making it so it's easy to grab our colors and remove the colors that are here. We just tap and hold on them. Then we'll select the Delete option has space for the palette that we're creating now. The colors we want with the eyebrows can easily be created this way. If you want to follow along with me throughout this tutorial. So now we have the colors we need to use on our eyebrows. So we'll start the work with a lighter color. First off, first with selecting the appropriate brush, but it also add this brush to the folder we're using for our work right now so it's easily accessible as we go and it's just done this way if you'd like to follow along. So the brush that we've selected is the medium brush. And now we're going to start the work by determining the right place and shape of the eyebrow. After we've determined the right place, we will work on the hairs of the eyebrow. So doing our foundation first and then adding in the detail afterwards, what we're actually doing it this point is coloring the base of the eyebrows and preparing the background for them. So it makes sure as well outside of the lesson that you go through the downloadable resources section and download the outlines and they can help you have a better start. Welcome more practice. Outside of lesson, you'll be able to draw the shapes and forms with more confidence. If you feel it all throughout this that you want to pause or slow down the video Fast-forward and please do it's all your own journey, working your own pace. And we can work along together in this way. We're just making sure here that we make sure not to draw a clear outline, especially for the upper part of the eyebrow, is better to be done if it's in a faded way like this, we're going to add the hairs on top of it one-by-one once we've set this foundation here. Okay, So this is how we add the base color for our eyebrows. Now we're going to be more precise. So it will reduce the opacity of the brush. And we'll start working on this part here. Now we're just selecting a darker color tone, reducing the size of the brush that we're using. With the smaller brush, we're going to start adding each hair strand one by one. We should be careful with the direction as well as we work. We are repeating this brush movement and we're adding hair strands in this way, which helps us draw a more realistic eyebrow. The shape and the form of the eyebrow is easily made if we apply the hair strands in the right directions, considering the base color that we've added earlier on as well. So keep on working on the eyebrows in this way. And we need to be patient as we work adding these lines and considering the direction. We'll keep on adding each hair one by one with a small tip that we have chosen for our brush in the direction of the eyebrows. These little details ready to add so much to our drawings. This is good practice for us not only in patients, but in perfecting these details. Now make sure as well that you go through the assignments and practice more to improve your work faster, the more confident you can become, the more comfortable you can become, the better. And feel free to ask any questions that you have as well. You can really see That's coming together now. Okay, so now this time we're going to select a lighter color tone. I'm going to add more hair onto the eyebrow. And in this way the eyebrows going to look more natural as well. It's got more dimension here, more texture. We're using all the colors we selected earlier in our color palette for the eyebrows to create the different tonalities that are normally seen on an eyebrow. So it's not going to be flat sketch. We're avoiding adding a fixed color and we'll create tonalities using darker and lighter colors. For the eyebrow to look more natural. We add some of the hairs on the skin near the eyebrow as well. We just have to make sure that they're not too far away from the eyebrows and they look natural. We can even select a lighter color so that we have a color contrast in our work as well. Nice. So in this way, we can show the amount of the hair that is on the eyebrow in its different parts. Simply by adding these lines in the same direction in the form of the eyebrow, we're drawing a more and more realistic sample. So we'll select a darker color and we'll continue our work on the eyebrow in the same manner. An observation is a key skill has. Make sure you check the sample from which you're working from, from time to time. And also observed the work that you're doing to apply any needed adjustments is really good to take a step back and just check in again with your work as you're going through so you can make adjustments as you go. Sienna, if we felt like some parts needed modification, we can easily tap with two fingers on the screen to undo what we've just done. And then we can work on those parts again, just like we've just done. You can see we've added more hair on some parts. In this way. We've got more density in those areas. Were observing our work and adding more layers of how wherever we feel it's needed. Some really nice detail work here. Okay, So this is how we welcome the eyebrows and we're done now the eyebrows at this stage. So I remember to practice and ask your questions anytime. Thank you for watching and I will see you next time. Goodbye for now. 18. Portrait Features: Eye : Hello everyone and welcome to this tutorial in which we are going to work on the eye. And as always, we build up in stages patients as we draw. So we're going to work on the eye itself today and we've opened a new layer. So first we're going to apply the color on the sclera, which is not purely white and it's indifferent. Very light colors. And most eyes we see a very blue and pink tonality in the sclera. So we've chosen a very light blue for the inner edges. And the little pink on the caruncle near the tear duct. Also the shade of the upper eyelid on the sclera is pink. In this, I want to follow along with me and practice as we go through this lesson, more you can practice, the better you'll become in confidence and also experience really will help with your future work. We'll also, we're going to apply a little bit of blue on these parts, as it's convex, will shade one-third of it, and then we'll leave it at a later work on it a bit more. Working on the inner edge of the lower eyelid. We can fade the color a little on this past as well. And you do this with a little pressure on your hand, not pressing too much. Now we'll apply and fade the color. On this part two, we make the color lighter. And again, we'll use it just here. Make it lighter, and we will apply it here. Now we're going to use bits of whites. So we're going to work on the iris and the pupil. Just selecting an ocean blue color for it. And as you know, it has green and blue in it. So this color has more green and we'll apply it on the iris like this. We've drawn an almost half so-called line around the iris. More move the extra part. I'm just drawing in an outline here to help keep our work nice and neat. And as always, it's okay to reach asks you to change the size a little bit. And we'll continue coloring this whole area. That's our foundation. And now the darker tonality. We'll go ahead and apply the color. If you follow along my hand movements as we go, I'll make practice a bit easier. If you have any questions you can of course, send them over. We're shading from the edges towards the pupil, which we're going to draw in again later on. I'm going to just draw the pupil in using black. We control the darkness around the iris. Of course we need to make it a little bit lighter. So I'm just drawing a delicate dark line on the inner edge of the upper eyelid. We don't want it to be clear line so we're failing it as well. A little bit. Also drawing this on the inner part of the lower eyelid. Again, keeping a bit of a fade in there. We don't want it to be too close, we just fading it like this. Okay, so now we want to continue working on the iris and the pupil. Just fading in some more darkness towards the top. Here. We can clarify that iris even more. We're going to make the line thinner and we'll try to give people even more dimension. Now. Now you may have already picked this up. But the more we work on this, more beautiful and natural the eye will be. As I said before, we're building up the layers to create a natural eye. Now the size of this brush is still medium from the airbrush group. And as we go through, we'll make it different sizes for different shadings. Make it thinner. For creating light and dark lines of the iris. We can make the tonality lighter as well. Just drawing some delicate lines, building up the depth here. And let's actually apply more white color in this part. Ok, and we'll go back to the iris, making that just slightly thinner to create these delicate lines. Continuing to draw light and dark delicate lines all around the iris. Now we're just going to choose the ocher color and add some lines and some spots onto the iris. Remember, all the information is available in your resources. We're giving our eye brownish color. Now. I'll continue with it. Adding some lights as well. As you can see, as you observe your work as well. But it is really becoming more natural and more. We build up these layers using these delicate lines. With these light colors already alley in. More reflection on to the eye itself creates much more depth. And as you can see, we're repeating what we've done and fading these colors together to create a more natural look with a lot of depth to it. Now we cannot color be darker. It's going around these edges here. We're applying dark lines onto the iris. And you can see we're just adding on some spots as well onto the iris. Building up those details. Three, clarifying the pupil there. Now you can go in and we'll apply some gray spots and some light onto the pupil. First we putting the darker spots and then we'll go in with a lighter and the brighter ones. So we're making the color lighter and we're applying it onto the light parts. So just patiently and carefully, we're applying the light onto its surface and elevating the realism of that. I even more. Again, we've just made it lighter and we're applying it onto those bright spots. Checking my camera work. And now we're going to make it darker. And we're going to draw some short, delicate lines just around the pupil here. Okay? Not always the best way to practice is to follow my hand movements. And you can stop the video, you can watch it a few times and practice a few times as well in your own way at the same time. And then resume the video just going through and practicing this new technique that we're learning. As you can see, we're applying these colors layer by layer. We can work more on it in this way. So others phase the lower the opacity and fade the borders of obvious lines because we don't want them to be too clear. So we're giving it a nice softness now. We're going through it, just darkening some parts while we're fading these colors to also just going in. And we're applying some dark color onto these light parts too. Okay, That is fantastic. So now we're going to work on drawing and working on the eyelashes. This is the next stage of our drawing. This is enough for now and we'll come back in the next tutorial to welcome his eyelashes. Remember to keep on practicing and send me any questions that you have. And in that way we can work through it together. As we learn these new skills. Take care and I will see you next time. Goodbye for now. 19. Portrait Drawing: Eyelashes: Hello all and welcome to another Procreate tutorial. In this tutorial, we'll be continuing our work on the eyes and this time we will focus on the eyelashes. So to work on the eyelashes, we need to reduce the size of our pencil. But first we need to add a darker layer on this part so that we can show the shadow that's usually caused a below the eyelashes. So you want to follow along with my hand movements as we practice this part of the drawing with the appropriate color and brush size, we'll start adding the shading layer onto this part. Now we can open a new layer to start adding the eyelashes themselves. Okay? So with the dark color that we've chosen and the right brush size, we'll start adding the eyelashes onto the lower eyelid exactly from this part. Now, as we're working, if you feel you want to practice separately, you can pause the video and practice in another error is your canvas and then come back to the main drawing and really just work at your own pace. As we're drawing these eyelashes, we'll consider the direction and angle for eyelashes while we're adding them in one by one. Now, I'll hand movement and I'll brush movement is also important. We're pressing the pencil when we are drawing the eyelashes root, letting go off the line at the end. We're also making sure that we're not adding very regular and parallel lines as we need to keep the shape and the form of the eyelashes while working on Procreate. It's also a good idea just to check that you're working on the appropriate layer. So have a little look and make sure that you're on the right layer before starting your work. And keep on just checking in to make sure that you are happy with your work and you can of course, make adjustments as you go. So right now after an observation we made, we're actually adding more eyelashes on to the lower eyelid, right next to the ones that we have already added. So we don't want all of the eyelashes going in exactly the same direction. They have a little bit more sporadic nature to them. We're adding eyelashes here and there, just like this as you want to work as natural as possible. So we'll try and add the lashes in the way that they really are in real life. Okay, So now the next step is to draw some of these eyelashes longer, will keep on working on the lower eyelash line. Now we're starting to add even more eyelashes. And this time we'll try to draw them even longer. We're still using the same method to draw the eyelashes that we were from the beginning. We'll start to work on the upper part of the INR and the eyelashes that are located there. So we use this brush stroke and move our hand. In this way. It's just like the lower eyelashes the first layer will add for the upper eyelashes are very thin and light. As our first step is to determine their appropriate location and how they look. And then we'll work more on them. Continuing to observe and make any adjustments. Still showing the approximate location, shape, the form, and the length of the eyelashes on the upper eyelid. Continuing dislike. So you follow along with me as we practice, gradually adding more layers on them in order to make the eyelashes look more natural. So as we move on, we'll draw the eyelashes longer. In this way. That's really good to develop the habit of observing the whole work from time to time, especially when we zoom in to work on a particular part. This way we can make sure that we are moving on the right direction. Now if we add the initial layers for the eyelashes, we're adding more layers onto them and this time more towards the shape and form that we want. You can see the more we work on this, more it starts to come together in a very realistic way. They're actually going to change the brush now to the line brush itself. And we're also making it a bit larger as it's thicker. We're starting to add more eyelashes onto these parts. Now what matters here is that we're adding enough layers on these parts so they are filled with eyelashes to the extent isn't needed. We're still using the same method to draw the eyelashes. We use more hand pressure at the beginning to draw the roots and then we let go the line at the end. We should also pay attention to the number of layers and with it the eyelashes that we add. So at some point we need to draw fewer layers and at some points more. Another important factor in drawing the eyelashes is to work randomly. It means to add one eyelash here and then two or three on the part right next to it. Now, all these are done in order to make the eyelashes more and more realistic and natural. So we're keeping the flow or the sporadic nature of eyelashes. For the eyelashes to look natural, we need to make the roots and actually the lower parts filled in with lines. And remembering as it was mentioned before, to take a look at the whole work is a really important habits. Build from time-to-time, have an observation and apply any needed adjustments. Now we're going back to keep working on the upper eyelashes. It's important to make sure that as we work, we are adding the lines for the eyelashes in the right directions as we've set out in our lighter eyelashes beforehand. At some points as well, add more layers. And that's some other areas less to keep it all as natural as possible. Beautiful. Okay, so as we move on to work on the lower layers, we'll use the color for the eyelashes with a lower opacity. So the Procreate application itself has some brushes when applied, which will give the shape, the form, and the texture of the eyelashes themselves. Using them helps us not to draw the eyelashes one-by-one. So there are multiple ways that we can do this by using those brushes. We apply the preset eyelashes and we can save time. Now going back to the previous layer we working on with the lower opacity that we chose for our brush, we make the roots and the eyelashes on these parts darker. So it'd be done like this. We go and we're making sure that we're using the appropriate brush with this task and making the roots of the eyelashes darker in this way. All right guys. So actually there is also a shading layer on this part. And in this way we are applying that as well. Adding the necessary shading layers on the different layers. And we're working delicately in this way. Following along. And again, if you feel you want to pause and practice, please do and send me any questions that you have. Yet again, we're observing the work in general to supply the needed modifications, but also working more on the different parts when needed. There we go and add this point, we're done. The eyelashes. I hope you've enjoyed this tutorial. I'm please make sure that you go for the assignments and practice as much as it's needed to learn these skills. Thank you for watching and I'll see you next time. Goodbye. 20. Portrait Drawing: Nose: Hello everyone and welcome to a new Procreate tutorial. In this tutorial, we'll be working on our skills to paint a darker skin tone with freckles on the nose. So we've opened a new layer. And as usual, we are selecting a gray color tone to begin a rough sketch, which will guide us as we work. Starting to work on the initial sketch in this way. Okay, So it looks like we need to change the brush to give us one that has thinner lines. Now as you're practicing, we're learning a new skill. So do not be afraid of starting over. Whenever you feel like you're moving in the wrong direction, you can modify your palette. You can observe your work and make adjustments we are learning here, so it's okay if you feel you want to start over. So we start our sketch again. I'm for that we first draw the circle to show the tip of the nose and will keep them working on the sketch in this way. In this tutorial, we'll be working on knowing and learning the ways to apply different skin tones and colors. And we'll work on a slightly darker color for the skin with freckles from what we've worked with last time. If you want to practice along with my hand movements, you can pause the video at anytime to work in your own pace. So we working on how to create this kind of texture on the skin. And our first step is doing an initial sketch of the nose and a new layer that we've opened. The right divisions that will apply to show the different parts of the nose and their proportions. And this is where the nose holes are located, where we're working. Now. We're just starting to outline our initial sketch. This is where the tip of the nose is. With this shape and form. By drawing this line here, we're considering this part to be where the eyes must be located with this distance between them is normal, open a new layer. And we're going to go through our color palettes. We need to use a darker skin tone than what we've used before and we're going to work on a darker skin. The first step then is selecting the medium brush and applying the background color as we've done before. In this sample, we'll actually see more of the brown color tones in the skin compared to the previous samples that we've worked on, which has moved the first layer up so that we can see guiding sketch above. Remove color layer down, move Juicy opacity on the sketch. Applying the background color on the lower layer in this way so we can add more color layers on top of it as we move on. So this is the main color that we've added onto the background and we're going to add lighter and darker color layers onto it. Now we select a darker shade of this color. And we are going to start applying the color on the corners of the nose as you can see. So adding the darker parts that are usually seen on the edges, the light does not normally reach this lower part of the nose and the nose holes in these paths and corners are going to be darker. And this is why we are applying this darker shade of color onto them. Like sir. And also these pots and corners need this darker layer and it'll help us better distinguish the nose from the other parts of the face and actually show it better. We're starting to build dimension and adding these darker layers in the corners helps us better show there's a convex point on this part of the face, aka the nose. For parts like the cheeks, will add lighter tones. We add lighter color in this way. But on the parts such as the part underneath the eyes, the smile lines, and the parts on which we want to show the depth will use darker color tones as the light does not reach those parts as easily. With the lighter color tone that we've chosen. We are adding the lighter colors on different parts in this way. So at this point we have the background and the general shape and form of the work we're going to do. From now on we're going to add more and more details and apply the darker and lighter parts. Capitalists were having some patients as we work as well. So we'll open a new layer and after choosing a slightly darker color, we select the appropriate size for the brush, and we'll start working on the outlines more delicately. In this way. We can even take off this layer as we do not necessarily need it anymore. We using a darker color tone to help us separate the nose part that we're going to work on from the other parts. We're adding more and more details as we move on, like the outlines and the nose holes. This is it for the dark parts, and now we select a slightly lighter color tone in this way, and we'll start working on these parts in this way. So for instance, on the tip of the nose will make it look more natural. We're also using the same color and the same brush to fade these parts into one another. We can also go to the settings for our brush and adjust its different qualities. So for instance, here we apply less hand pressure will have less effect on the surface. Here we can adjust how the lines would fade. Here we can adjust how the lines look. We can change our brush settings and apply the lines and the way that we want. Just like this. As we have fading the different parts of our work at this point, this is going to be really useful for us later on depending on what kind of texture we want to create, we can change the settings for our brushes. You've really useful to experiment with this on the outlines of this part of the nose holes where you're going to add a linear light like this. In this way, the darker parts that you've added a shown better through using the contrast there. So now we are continuing working by choosing the right color, the different parts. There we go. So we are adding again the dark colors to show the dark parts in which we do not have a light. Apart we are concentrating on now is the tip of the nose. And on these parts we need to add slightly darker layers of color where there is a shadow. Now we can go back to the lighter color tone with more of the white color in it, will keep on working in this way. Again, at this point, we'll select the color that we want by holding the square on the left bar and tapping on the color screen. And after we make it a bit lighter, we continue the work like so. This way we've added the lighter parts of our work. Now we select the dark color we had using the same method will add another layer like this on the same layer. Now at this point we're going to make it a bit darker to work on both the outlines and the darker parts of our sample. And as always, if you have any questions, as you work through these lessons, you can always send me a message and work through them together. Softening out these dark areas. Now. Creating a natural shade. In this way, we are creating the shape and also the form of the nose that we're working on. Now we need to be careful about our brush size while we were working on the different parts of the nose. Now we'll make the same color that we're using right now, slightly darker, will just adjust. The brush settings, wants more, and we're starting to work more on the darker parts. Parts like the nose holes. Here. Again softly fading out those edges. Like so, and will choose a darker tone one more time and work well. We're also reducing the hand pressure, especially when we reach these parts in the middle. Okay, Onto the other nodes Hall as well. We repeat the same process and add the needed darker parts. For this part on the tip of the nose, we need to select the color that we've previously used on this part and start fading it by a slightly darker shade of the same color in this way. So we just need to keep in mind that we do not have that much light on this area. And yet again, we select close to this previous color. So it's not to lose the harmony of color in these parts will also fade the parts we've just added in this way. Working on the pop, Neith, the nose, we need to add a darker layer as there is a shadow here. Brilliant. I'm moving on. We need to add two lighter parts like this over here to show you the convex points on the top, upper lip. And now we'll go back to a lighter color. And what can these lighter parts of the nose? I can add this point. We come really close to the white colors. We are adding the intense lighting on the nose. We're going to change the brush as well while we are adding these lighter parts to the skin texture. Because the skin, it's not this move. In real life. We're selecting the colors that we've already used. We're going to apply an additional layer of them by using the new brush to add the texture. We can also add slightly darker parts as we keep on working as well. So always keep on modifying our work as we observe as we work. Okay, so now we're going to start working on the freckles and on some parts of the skin that are actually darker. We're also going to make sure that we fade these parts into one another in this way as well. So just gently. Again, it's okay if you need to modify or adjust any of this part, you can pause the video, make adjustments, and then resume again. Okay, so now we're just applying the color as we've reduced the opacity as well to better fade these different parts. So it's a bit of a softer look. Now. That's the nose and we're going to go in on this possible the lip as well, the upper lip. And we're going to keep on working with the same methods. And as we observe the work, we realized that we need to add even more lights on our works. We choose the color and we start working on these lighter areas. Okay, so now we're going to add some freckles onto the nose. So we'll select the darker color first. And then adding more the red color tone to it. We'll start adding these freckles and we choose the right brush and the right size versus well. Now these freckles are going to be added easily, just like so if you want to follow along the adding these dots in different sizes randomly on the nose. Okay, Now we're going to use the color that we have on this part. So we've selected it, and then we make it a bit lighter and we start applying it. Well in this way as we do not want it to be so smooth on these parts. We're adding in some texture for the skin. We go that's better. We don't want it to be too much. So as well. We'll apply the colors the previous brush on top. Again. This is where observation really is so important. We need to keep on checking the whole work from time-to-time to make sure that we're on the right path. So it's really good to build that up as a habit in your work. Perfect. So now we'll go back and we'll continue our work on the freckles. We go and we're adding some darker freckles as well. By adding more of the red color tone to the previous color that we had used before. We're adding the freckles randomly on the skin. In this way. As you follow along my hand movements as we're practicing, you'll notice we use this simple brush movement. We can also select a slightly lighter color and add more freckles onto these parts as well. So we've selected the appropriate brush and color and added our final touches onto the skin. Next. I really just making sure that we add the lighter parts of the skin as well. So for instance, these parts where we reach the eyes. This is it for this part. So we'll say the file easily in this way. And then we go to our gallery. Jpeg is saved and we'll press edit, like so. And then we can crop the picture like this as we've not drawn the eyes. You do not need all of these parts. Now, we have the final version of our work here in our gallery. Thank you for watching this tutorial and make sure you practice. Because as you know, practice makes perfect. And you can go through the assignments and keep on working to elevate your skills. Goodbye and I will see you next time. 21. Portrait Drawing: Lips: Hello and welcome to this lesson. In this video, we are going to continue our portrait coloring. So coming back to the drawing of our nose here, we're going in and finishing up some of the details. So we're just going in and adding in some lighter shades. Just like Qatar work and removed extra parts. And now we're working on the final image. This level, I'll work is finished. So now we're going to start on the next part. We will open a new layer. We're going to work on lips and we're going to create the color. We've worked on the nose and the eye, et cetera. And we've saved those. And we're going to move on to the lips. So as always, are outlined available in your resource folder and these really help in your drawing. So don't forget to download them. Having the right outlines will help you throughout learning these techniques and these parts when you create beautiful artworks. So you have more confidence to approach them. Okay, So as usual, we're going to open a new layer and we'll start sketching with skin color. Will lower the size and the opacity of our brush as well. This is our initial sketch and we're going to divide the screen into two parts. And we'll use a circle, lipids sketching. For the general lit we use three circles like this. One of them is big, like an oval and the other circles are small. This can be different for every person. We use this way for sketching. So e.g. depending on the form you want, the upper lip can be smaller and they can be different for every person. That is our upper and lower lip. Now the form of the middle line is going to look like this. There is a curve in the middle there. So this is the general sketch of the lip, again, will open a new layer and we'll lower the opacity of the previous layer and sketch clearly in this new layer, we don't need lines, but we'll work on them when we sketch the error overlap, we can work more and better on it. So we're just creating ourselves that clear guide with this next layer. And as you're practicing, if you want to follow my hand movements, this will help to develop this new skill. You can draw along with me. And if you have any questions, of course, feel free to send them over. Okay, So open a new layer and we'll use a medium brush. And we will color around the lips. Raising the size of that brush. And we'll put this above the layer and add the shade in the beneath layer. We already have from before our skin color palette here. So we'll use those for our work. And this is color you want for around the lips. Okay. And it can become darker along the upper lip. And around the corners. Will use the darkest color first, and then we'll add light shades onto it. Okay, So we'll add a new layer. And we're going to make our brush smaller. Okay. So here's the upper lip and then the lower lip will be darker color lips generally. And then we will add more details and shades onto them through just coloring in a darker lower lip. To begin with. Not as the general form of the lips. So now we're going to add more colors and we'll choose them carefully. Now in order to make it Matt will use this color. This color has gray and pink in it. And pay attention to the movement of the hand. The lines and wrinkles of the lips are clearer in the smartphone. And we color this darker and we make our brush thinner. Okay, So we use the light to tonality. This color for the edge of the lip will open a new layer. Mask it. So when we mask layer it will not cross the line. We've removed the line layer. Now we're going to open the beneath layer and work more on these parts. Just clean up that edge there. Okay, so that's looking good. So we're going to open the above layer and we'll add in some lines. Just lighten that color there. We use a darker color now. Starting to fade these together a little bit. So the basics of the mat and shine forms of the lip or the other works are the same, but the changes we apply later are different. Here we see there's actually a darkness between ellipse drawing in that shadow that we can fade that a little bit as well as you see fading out. Now we'll use a darker color. If you feel throughout this lesson that you're missing any of the timing to practice, please just pause the video and you can practice after my hand movements and then resume the video. You're working at your own pace. You don't need to stress a tool while practicing this new skill. We're building up the layers here. And we'll try to just fade the middle line a little bit more. Again, we are using a darker color. Here. You can see I just made the tip of the brush a little bit thinner as well. If you have any questions, you can message me at anytime and let me know and I'll guide you more. And when you're done with your practices, please send them to me as well so I can go through with them and we can talk about them step-by-step. We're just starting to add in a little bit more detail here. So you can see I'm adding these smaller lines starting from the middle line following the form and the curve of the lip. Remember to keep making observations of your work. I'm making any adjustments. You feel unnecessary. So we're just going in here and we're really starting to follow the form of the lip. And letting that curve show you follow my hand movements. That's the best way to practice. As you build up the skill. And the more you practice, the better you become as you become more confident. With this new technique. This movement shading is from the dark edge to the outputs. And we continue shading until we create some dimension. And after that we'll add some lines onto the lips. But we're really building up the depth and dimension on these lips. As you can see, the movements are circular and we should accommodate our pen with the form of the dimension. The dimension is spherical. The movement of our pen should be spherical and circular as well. Upenn is like a colored pencil, so we should match the movement of our pen with the form of the dimension. So please try to practice after my hand movements as you build up your confidence with this new technique. Using darker colors, hair, showing the shade, where the middle lip sticks out slightly more. Following the dimensions. Failing these colors together a bit more. We're really just adding colors layer by layer so that some patients work in all of these colors will fade together. So they create a soft look with plenty of dimension, plenty of depth. Through using now a lighter color and even, even lighter movements of the lights from the edge of the lips to the center. And for the shades are from the middle towards the outside. We're using a darker color. Now. I'm making a brush thinner. And then we'll add some lines on to the lips. So going in with some more detail, even darker. There are some lines and their wrinkles on the lips which we're drawing and now we're adding dark lines to the dark parts and vice versa. So light lines onto the light parts. We can also increase the darkness between the lines according to the form of our ellipse. Again, we can use a lighter color, such as this. For the lighter parts. You can add some lines in these parts. Now, use this color and we'll shade between the lips a little to increase its darkness. Do practice. As we go through this video. You can follow along my hand movements. We can work together here to build this skill. Just darkening this area here. And then we're going to lower its opacity as we've just done. And we'll continue shading. Now as we're saying, building that observation habit will look at the work. So we'll choose now with the eyedropper tool, this color and we'll make it a bit grayer. We're going in now and we're adding more color to the skin. The beneath layer, shading around the lips. So we can go back to the lip layer and create some more depth. This like so. There we go. And again, we can add shades with a darker color into these parts. And don't forget outside of lessons as well, you can go to your downloadable resources. All of the information is available there for you to read through, and that will really help your studies here. So already we managed to build up a lot of depth. I launched, I mentioned, so it's starting to look really, really good. We're just going in and we're going to darken these parts here as you can see. Adding in some more detail lines following the lines and the wrinkles in the lip following the curvature. This is a MATLAB. And again, we're going to use this pink color and some lines, making the brush smaller. And we're going into these lighter areas. The edges should be lighter. And it really made me very helpful here to follow my movements as we get used to the curvature of the lips and of this form. So we're just going through and editing where it's become too light. We're fading that out. For now. We're happy with our work and we can save it. As usual. I hope you've enjoyed this lesson and I will see you in the next tutorial. Keep on practicing, take care and goodbye for now. 22. Portrait Drawing: Lip Gloss: Hello all and welcome to another Procreate tutorial. In this tutorial, we're going to work more on the lips and we will add more details to it. The first step is to fade the outlines of the lips. In this way, We're almost done working on the mat lips. We need to add a slightly lighter color on these parts. We choose the right color and start the work. The edges here. At this point, we can save the work in our gallery. If you follow along with me. And we'll check to see as well that it is correctly saved in our gallery. Now going back to Procreate application, we're going to work more on the lips we've just drawn to see how we can make it look glossy as we're applying some lip gloss now. So we're going to add another layer and show the gloss and shine on the lips. We need to add lighter lines on parts of our work. This is why we will select the color white and will also adjust our pen to the right size. And we'll start adding the lights. You want to follow along with me. As we practice. We first determine on which parts we're going to add the light parts. So for instance, we're going to add one along the lower lip and some smooth parts along the upper lip. We're adding another one here. There's may keep adding the lighter parts to set the basis for the gloss we're going to add onto these lips. Now at this point we're going to have more of the parts we've chosen as the light parts. Some areas are brighter than others and we've started to fade this out a little bit, keeping it quite clear. Now we're going to add more light onto those parts. As always as you practice, you can feel free to pause the video and take it at your own pace, following my hand movements and then resuming. When you feel you've had a good practice, the more you practice, the better case. We're choosing the right colors and we're working on all the different parts of the lip. Here we go. I'm the linear lights like these are added by a smaller brush just in this way as you can see. So these white dots and lines going to help us better show the shine on the lips from the lip gloss. And if we add our hand pressure, we're able to add a light part and then fade the area around that pop by reducing our hand pressure. And working on those. It's important to not just add the light part, but also to fade the area around it. As you can tell, a matched sample of work and change into a glossy one quite easily. In this way. It's no different types of lights are added by adding or reducing the hand pressure as we keep on working. Now another important point to be taken into consideration is adding the lights in the same direction and the form of the lips and the shape of it. So this is already starting to come together. Outside of these lessons, make sure as well that you go for your assignments and practice as much as you can. We're going to build up your art skills. You'll be confident in no time. The more that you practice. We're just finding all these areas where the light is reflecting. There are also some lights down here that we're going to add using a smaller tip for our brush. We're actually, we are adding more light to the parts that we've already worked on as well. We need to walk delicately on all of these different parts. Remember, you can download the outlines from the downloadable resources section to start with. It's okay to start practicing on those if you want to trace and white from outlines that will help build up an understanding of the drawing that we're working with. However, make sure that you practice enough to be able to draw them freehand as well. No one expects you to get it perfect. Right away. This is a process and we are in this together. So don't worry, if you want to practice it in a variety of different ways. Starting out. We're going to get back to the layer that's been masked. And we'll work more on the lights of this part in this way with that mask layer. This is where it's very important to observe the whole work from time-to-time, as you said before, as well as zooming in to see all the details. So these steps help us to really see what we're working on and apply the need of techniques and the touches on the works of gaining perspective in a variety of different ways. Now we'll go back to the layer we're working on. And we'll keep on completing this process. We're paying attention to the dimension of the lips as well. While we do this, we're working delicately impatiently in each and every one of these details, which is key to making these lips look as natural as possible. So observing the whole work here, and we'll select the red color tone once more to add some more darker lines in-between the lights. We're gonna make sure that these lines are as delicate, as thin as the previous ones. Now we're going to go in and we're going to add more orange to the color, will be continuing the same process. Now the slightly darker color is actually added to the parts where we had added the intense lights previously. It's actually right next to those areas. And then going back to this part, we're going to keep on working on the shading layer here, which is fading it a bit more. To do so, we're making sure that we're using the appropriate opacity for our brush as well. And selecting the color right next to that one, we start fading this part using a lower opacity brush. Okay, so now we can just save the work on our device as usual. And in our gallery right here, we can see the two lips we've worked on, the mat lips and the glossy lips. So thank you for watching. Congratulations on this new skill. Keep on practicing. And also feel free to send us your questions anytime. See you next time and goodbye. For now.
