1. Intro: You want to know the secret of making a magical
painting like this? Of course you do. Who wouldn't? Sorry to burst your bubble. But there are no secrets. There is no magic.
There is just practice. But I will share my
entire process with you, if that's what you're
interested in. Actually, I'm going to
share it either way. But feel free to take along. Hi, my name is Fatty, but everybody calls me up. I'm a watercolor artist
and an online teacher. I've been painting with
watercolors for 12 and working as an independent
artist for six years. I try to make art accessible
for everyone with fun, easy to follow classes
like this one. This is my class number 99. This class is a part of
my everyone can series. And this really sums
up my approach to art. I believe everyone can
do anything they want. That's why I have classes
like everyone can draw, everyone can paint,
everyone can draw letters. And now everyone can draw lunch. I pick this topic because I keep illustrated journals like this and teach how to keep them. And students love these classes. And they started keeping
their own sketch journals, but some of them also told
me that it's all great, but I can't draw
and paint like you. In my other class about
sketch journaling, I tackle the general topic and try to teach an
artistic mindset. But I realized that
I don't go in depth about how I draw and paint
due to time restrictions. This is what we will do here. I picked the topic lunch because everyone has
lunch. It's simple. I'm excited to share
this class with you because it's so
straightforward. I will just pencil,
sketch, draw, and paint my lunch real time and share my entire
process with you. This way, you will be able
to draw and paint like me, with some practice, of course,
if that's what you want. But that's not all. I believe art is a part of life and the more we make
it part of our life, the more chance we
have to practice. For that reason, I will
take you out with me first. We'll go out in Warsaw, we will do some shopping. You know, I need
a new hoodie for every class and have
some Raman together. After that, we will be telephoned
to my studio to pencil, sketch, draw, and paint
my lunch with watercols. I will expect the same from you. Draw your lunch and share
it with me. That's all. I promise you, that it
will be a fun class. So when I mean my
entire process, I really mean my entire process. This class can be for beginner, intermediate, or
advanced artists. If you like my style
and you want to adopt it, this is
the way to do it. I will break
everything down. I do. So you don't need the background or specific expertise
to take this class. You have to go shopping
first because Jack forgot to buy new
goody for this class. Don't say anything because
he's very sensitive. Can't wait to go out with you. It will be fun.
We never do this. I mean, we won't be alone alone because
Jack also has to come. But he has to record, so I'm
sure he won't bother us. I'm pretty sure we should
go out more often. Right. Totally.
Totally. Totally, yeah. I will give you a call.
2. Class Project: And video is recording too. Yeah. I hope you can hear me. I'm at my desk this time. I did this set up at
the live session. I like how it looked like, how cozy it looked with
my paintings behind me, and I thought, why not? Let's change it up a bit and do the next number
nine, this way. Which side is Jack, by the way, I always speak to the Jack. You'll be on this side, okay? On the right here
is class project O, I know I say that a lot, but your class project is easy. All you need to
do is well, I do. You just go get something
you really like if you can. It's not necessary,
but I think it's nice. It adds a bit
excitement to life. Maybe you like a burger? I really like a burger. Just go get a nice lunch for yourself. Like I did, I'm going to show
you in a second after this. Later after the materials, get some lunch and take
a photo, eat your lunch. If it's a place you're
confident to sit down, you can also draw it there. You can bring it
home, your photo. Sit on your desk and
draw your lunch paint. I'm going to show you
and share it with me, and this will be
your class project. What do you think? Easy, right? You can do it on a
separate piece of paper. You can do it on
your sketch book. You can do it in
your sketch journal. You can do it wherever you want. You can do it digitally
if you want to. I like traditional
paper pen watercolors, but feel free to do
whichever way you like, just if you want to learn how I do mine. I'm going
to show it to you. After that, you do your
own and send it to me. Okay? This is your
class project. See you in the next lesson. But next lesson is
not really a lesson. I will show you my materials. Okay, cool Check, bring on
the materials. Come on.
3. The Materials: Let's start with
paper. For the paper I'm using, the Conson graduate. It's 250 gram per squameters. Five size is very ideal
for this project. It's not too big, it's not too small size of the
project I'm leaving it to. It depends what you're
going to do with it. If you want to frame
it, you can make a big as I guess it really
depends on the project. For this project. Five is fine. I bought this recently. I'm very happy with
it. I've been doing some new posters for
another project, and it takes away
water pretty well. It doesn't bend so much. There's a bit of a
bend, but it's easily fixable by vetting it a little bit with a
spray and putting it under heavy book overnight. It will be flat
like the first day. This is the paper,
250 milligram. Okay, pencil. Seriously,
I'm using this pencil. I don't even know
where I got it from. Spencilever for pen. The two main brands I use are the Faber Caster ones,
Ecopigment Micron. Usually for the
projects that I like to put more details,
this is very thick, 0.7 0.1 0.24 is on the thick side
for this project. If you want to fill in
some areas with black, maybe they will be more
useful, thicker ones. But 0.1 and with micron two. This is the pen we are using. We cover the paper. What we're going to do
for sketch, any pencil, there is my eraser, just
such a sticky for eraser. I'm using this needable eraser from Faber Castel that you can shape it into
whatever you want. It comes like this in a box. This is a new one I
haven't opened yet. The good thing is it
doesn't make any mess. Totally recommend that, since I don't like using the
other type of erasers. What's next colors? Yes, we need some colors. I'm using this Takambi
water color set. This is the entire set and
how many colors I have? I think 48 colors in this
set is pretty big set that it probably won't fit under
the camera. But I will try. It's like this entire set, but from the same brand I have the small set that
is always in my backpack. And I was showing this in my previous class
where I do no effort, sketch journaling, and you didn't see this one because
this is a new sketchbook. I'm doing cafe portraits, rather than drawing my coffee, I'm drawing the interiors. Mostly if it's
good from outside. Like the shop fronts,
I want to draw. But if they are not in
any way significant, I try to capture a place
from the inside the coff. Sure. I have also the snow set that maybe to fit better in the
camera in here. That's better. You have 12345612 colors and I think you can pick
which colors you have. This was pretty basic colors. I added some this page. And lilac here, I think
from my original set, the big set, I just take
this around with me. It's very easy to
carry in the backpack. And I like it normally that I say that art is
part of life and we should make it part of
our life that I would be drawing this man while I'm outside in a coffee shop or
somewhere like this as well, if it's not so busy, in
a ramen shop as well. I did it in the studio because I need to record
this to show you guys. I needed lighting and my
microphone and everything I did. Normally, it would also
happen in the life. While it's happening,
that's what's important. These are watercolors. Did I forget anything else? I also have another set of
watercolors that I was using. This set, it's St.
Petersburg White Nights, I think, but also once you open, it's pretty peak in a
coffee shop or something. It takes lots of space. Since I have this Ta, I'm
not really using this one. That much is very vivid
and colorful is also. But I Tab, what else? Brush. I'm going to use
these brushes that again, this was some cheap
brush off the Internet. I think I bought first time for, I was doing a workshop,
live workshop during the pandemia with
masks on and everything. Then the same brand,
I had a set from it. This is number 12, thicker one. This is zero very to cover bigger areas and smaller
areas to be just fine. The number eight. Number three, I keep these ones with my small watercolor set that
it has a cover like this. I put this here and
put the cover on top so my brushes are safe, the tips are not being pressed or something
in the backpack, and I always have it with me. It doesn't happen
that I go out, oh, I forget my brushes and so I compat are always
with this set. These are the brushes
we talked about. Pencil pen eraser, what
else would you say? Watercolor paper.
Watercolors. Do we need anything else for this? I guess I think this is it. Since we know the materials
we need now, let's go out. See you on next lesson. First lesson, we'll see, indeed, I don't know by.
4. Road to Lunch (vlog): Wait, wait, wait. We can't just start like
that with a day in my life. Look, this is not you to what
we can do whatever we want. Oh, okay, cool. So today I'm going to take you. Hello? I was just using
the wrong camera. Welcome to this new class. This class, I'm going
to take you out with me for lunch because I
need something to draw. And we are going
to draw our lunch. I want to do it this way
because art is part of life, at least for me, it doesn't
always happen in the studio. Not all of us have a studio. Not all of us even have a
specified desk for doing art. Most of us use the dinner table, Use it for most of my life. I wanted to take it with me, make it, and show it. We will go back to the
studio and draw our lunch. Also, you might be thinking, if you were going to head on, why did you in your head
all the time at home? Why indeed, a bit of update
about what we're going to do. We have two more
stops before lunch. We are going to go
and get a new hoodie. Because it's a new class,
I need new hoodie. After that, I need a
haircut for the new crust. Before going into the studio, I will have a new
cut and you will come with me and then
we will have lunch. We are having Raman today. It's always beautiful to draw. I think all the Japanese food is very aesthetically pleasing. I chose man, we will have ramen. Then later we will head
back to the studio. The thing is we're
in BarsoI'm from Wars November towards
the end of November. It's cold already. I've been waiting
for a few days for a sunny day to shoot this.
But it wasn't coming. It's this cloud, Of course, it was Jack's idea to do this class block style in the
middle of freezing outside. And it doesn't look
freezing at all. And I think if I didn't have to I would
step outside today. But here we are. That's the worster towers. Now the tallest
building fall a purse. Thank thank you very much. And that's our school today. If you watch my other
classes that maybe you know that this is my
favorite building in Warson. You are going there to
tell us, do some shopping. It's raining now, check. Perfect day for autoies. That's a nice t shirt. I need a green one. It's nice, but I'm not sure that
was unnecessary. I found the color I was
looking for until I saw this. Let's try and see if
this is the one jack. I need a size bigger. I think this is the one.
I need a back green to complete my playing
both. So let's go pay. I'm play. Of course, I'm always late. But I realized something. If you are late enough, like so many times, your leg becomes him. Once I made to my personal
time, he wasn't ready for me. He was. Sure. So now the head. Okay. Now that's done. Done as you can see
it now it's time for let's go and get some lunch and have
something to drop. Sally Jack, Weather Jack Jack. Don't get on this bus. Jack.
Get off the bus right now. Jack Jack. All I said, he thinks he sees in
future assisting, you know, assisting
Gist Jack, you did it. The weather chants gone. Okay. Now we're almost there. I do go now and by myself, Jk. Left and after that
off, let's see. Let's go each now I will my show you to wait.
Let's see how it can. Wow, I'm full min is such a good food but
also it's so tiring. There's so many things to
do and eating good jobs, even though I can do that, I
always find it very tiring. And it's difficult
to see on yourself. Even though I tried very hard, I did manage perfectly. And that's why moot. Wait for now, we had our
lunch, we have photo. So let's go to the
studio and draw. Let's go and we are
backing the studio. Now I'm going to switch to the overhead camera and we're going to start sketching
our ramen ball. Cool jack switch to
the overhead camera. Come on, chop, chop.
5. Let's Sketch!: Hi, Welcome to my messy desk. I used to clean
before every class, but I realized I should
like it like this. Maybe I will, after a while, put a varnish and so they will never go away because
it's water coloring. If I have a bit of something
with it just goes away. I like the way, so I
decided to keep it. Let's start now. We're going to sketch our lunch. Here is our five paper
I'm using, five. You can use whichever
size you want. You can do it in your
sketch books as well, or anywhere you want to. I decide to do this as
a separate project, but the idea is that
if you want to draw your lunch or any kind of similar topic for
your sketch journals, you can learn here
how to do that. You will decide where to
use this skill later, But for this class, I'm just going to use
this paper as usual. I'm going to look from my phone, but I'm going to keep
that outside the camera, but I will put it on the side. Later on the edit, you
will also see what I'm looking at while drawing. Okay, this is a
very round object, that's the main focus. When I try to sketch, just look at it as a
whole. And what is it? Is the square rectangle round And then put that round down. But it's not a perfect circle, because a ball is
a perfect circle, and I'm looking at an angle, this will be a bit
squashed circle from the top and
bottom. Let's start. It will be something
like this, I think, okay? Then after this, by the way, it doesn't
have to be perfect. Again, you know me and I always say it doesn't
have to be perfect. And decide which of these lines will be the main
line at the end. This is the good thing
about sketching. We are putting the
lines down at the end. We decide if it looks like what we want our image to
look like or not. Then we can add more or not. There are other main
objects to consider is that there is the seaweed on this corner and
it's like a rectangle. Let's try to put that in that it is something
like this sticking out, but we can't see
the whole thing. Again, this might not be the exact placement
and the shape, but it works for me. Then another shape to
consider inside the circle. If you look, there
is another circle, that's the line of the soup. Let's try to put that as well. The important thing here is
that if you look closely, that circle is not right
in the middle of this. In order to, so to be right
in the middle of the bowl, we would have to be
looking from the top. Exactly. It would be something
like this from the top. But because we look at an angle, there is less white space here. It is closer and there is
more white space here. It will be something like this. When you pay attention
to these details, suddenly even though people who look at your art, they
don't think about it. But when you see it that you understand that this
is at an angle. Because our brain is
trained these things. When things are not in place, we also tend to notice it. Sometimes you might
not know. But there's something wrong with this image, but I don't know what it is. That often it's about the
angles and perspectives. Because our brain is trained to see the world in a certain way, and when something is
off, it triggers it. We also have something
sticking out here, that's our spoon. I don't know if it has
a specific name spoon, but it goes out like this. And then outside it curves here. And the extra lines I will later because there should be
another additional line here later I will do, that's for the red showing. And the rest of it is
black, but it's shiny. And we'll also leave that shine when we are painting
black. We'll try to do it. At least it's also
visible to shine here. That is siting more
reflecting the plate. This. Okay, Now the main
shapes are in place. That's the important thing. And after that, we will
just start putting, I guess getting
smaller and smaller. Next shape to consider. I think there is this
piece of meat in the middle that looks
like a rectangle. Something hidden
behind the spoon, standing like that, it has
the grill marks like that. Maybe it goes a bit further. Then there's another piece
under something like this. At this point, I used the ability of my phone
and zoom in to say, actually now I see
that it's sticking out here as well,
this piece of meat. It's more like this. I think on this side
I see the other side. It was such a nice dinner. Then I see the egg is filling the space between
the seaweed and the meat. I will try to place it as I
think it is getting a point, the end here and wider here. Again, the Gop is not
in the middle here. There's a bit of writing. I will try to add that because
I like later how it looks. But what I will do here is F, I will decide where that writing stands because
we can see part of it here. Clearly the goes away from our vision due to
the curve of the ball. It's something like
this. On the other end, it's also visible here. This part I will put here
and then here there will be the green stuff has marks on it. Let's put one mark here. Here, over here, I see
mushrooms is going to be sweet. I think in the drawing, if you see one mushroom is sticking
out of the soup line. I don't know if this
word was ever used, these two words together. So line, there's another one here for example. At this point, I don't
worry too much that mushrooms end is actually
coming further down the egg, but I just hid it
behind the egg. It's not that important. It doesn't have to
be exactly the same. Here I see some noodle. This space is like
something like here, there will be mushrooms. I will try to fill that
space with mushrooms. Now, I'm not going to stay
100% true to what I'm seeing, but I will try more mushrooms. Here, there are like little
shapes you can't quite. Tell which part of
the mushroom that is. But you can see that these are mushrooms because this is also a three dimensional situation. Is that they are
not on the surf, only on the surface of the soup, but they're going deep as well. In between them, there are also some parts that are green. That there's some
spring onion, I think. Let's put this as well. There's a rectangular shape. There's one over here overlapping
on top of each other. And here is a spring onion. I will try to give the shape of a spring onion cut when we are putting down these details with
Penny will look better. More greenery here. Okay. And I think that's enough. I will just throw one
more shape here then. There's just shape of the soup. Shape of the soup, I mean, how is it called of the soup. Okay, and let's
complete the mushrooms. I see another mushroom shape here and another one over here. It's really funny when
you start drawing. I was talking about this
in my everyone can draw class that you look at something
and you know what it is. It's bowl of you know what, ramen soup or any kind of dish. But when you start that, suddenly you see
all the details. Like when I first look, I didn't realize that this
mushroom shape here. But because I need
to fill the space, my eye is looking for
the details and I really start seeing for what it
is with all the details. That's why drawing
is a good practice. That's not just for the art, but it helps you to see the
world around you better. There's another mushroom
shape here under. Let's add some random
lines to fill it because that's how it looks
like underneath the noodle. Let's put more
lines for noodles. Okay, this side is done and now on the
other side there is, I will have to put
this with pen later, that it has this nice, crunchy looking texture
to it, this meat. And over here like
something like this, there is like a piece of ham. I think it was folded and
other piece is showing. Okay. And only thing
left is the greenery. And it fills the space. It's actually going over
the egg part of it. Let's send this into
the green here. Over here I see lots of noodles that in that space with noodles. And I think here is
the most visible one. I will try to do this
more with more detail. Yes, because in the
siluette of the thing, this will really show that the green salad in this dish
later when I fill the space, it will help the viewer to understand that the salad here, but this is sticking
out and adding to the siluette's important. Mm hm. Now there is one more going
across like that. I think it's above
the swop line, but we can't really see actually because that area is completely full of greenery like this. This is actually
also sticking out. It wasn't coming as close
to the writing here, but maybe I made a mistake
with the spacing of this. I'm realizing because it's also to when there's
a writing like this, that the letters
should be parallel. Finishing line should
be coming from here. It will be something like this, like that from the center. And there are some
veins of the leaf. There is another one
going under like this. There are more green shapes that later with a pencil, I will try to decide
how much I need to add. Some leaves are coming over the piece of meat here. I see there's another
slice of meat under, but it's mostly covered
with green stuff. Here's another piece of meat, the dark meat is called
the brown meat and white meat here, leaf. These shapes are
not really easy to convey because lots of
details and they are folded. But all I'm trying
to do is to focus on the general shape and the
lines like whatever I see, I'm not I don't think about
these leaves anatomically, but I see the shapes and I just put those lines I see
over there to here. That's all it is
actually drawing that you look at the and you decide which lines you
need to take it on your paper so that this will represent what
you're trying to draw. At the end of it, it will give the feeling of them
you're trying to create. And you don't have to draw
everything perfectly. Then over here there are
lots of green lines. I will just fill them up, a random lines here. But the general shape, we got it. Okay. Maybe I actually, I
can add these writings that I think from the
center, something like this. It should be there's an S here. There's a. Later with pen, I
will try to make these lines two dimensional. They are two
dimensional, but I mean, I will try to make them tick. And here writing, it says ran, but it almost gets
unrecognizable towards here. So I will put the, I'm trying to stay between these lines that I drew before. Then over here writing,
I will just put some of this turquoise color to
represent the rest of the letters that are the piano
table on the other side, it's also this word, I don't actually
know what it means. Or the oh is almost a rectangle and more is hidden behind
the leaves over here. Okay, So this is it for sketch, and we will continue with line drawing that I
will be probably using this 0.1 for all these fine details
see on the next one by.
6. Let's Draw!: Okay, now let's, I just check if my pen is working now. We need to bring this together. I think it's plenty of details. We almost put all the
details we need to, we need to decide how the final look is going to
look like and the things that are overlapping
that we need to decide beforehand and be
a bit mindful of that. For example, not to throw
the ball like that. Because in here we can
see the edge of the ball and the spoon is also
standing in front of it. And so I think when
I look at the image, first thing I want
to cover is this. The seaweed, as you can see, it doesn't have
the perfect edges. I try to give the texture by not drawing a perfect line. Okay, this is it. And let's add the spoon as well. And here is the spoon. And then I will try to to the ball, but over here, not
to forget about the, when you look at the ball, you know how the balls work because you know that it has a edge and usually there's a sh, I like to keep it white, white rather than on
white for the shines. The grayish seeing wipe
for the ball like this. So to represent that there is this curve to the edge
that I usually add. Some broken lines. I get too close there, it don't worry too
much about it. This is to represent
the edge of the ball, the curve curving away from us. And these are in here we
see the sup lineup line. Also, I will try not to
put very harsh lines. Paint will cover that for us. Okay? And I think the next in line should
be the green leaves. Because I put so much
detail already with the pencil that I know how
the general shape looks that I can be a
bit more bold with the pen and go a bit faster. Okay. And there are more
green leaves here. There's this one
going over the age. There's a bit of
noddle sticking out here, and more greenery. If you look closely, there's lots of
jaggered lines there, basically representing
the leaves. And after we put
the general shapes, we will be able
to fill the space with those squiggly lines. Okay, now there's
the meat under this. Again, the paint will help us a differentiate these
lines from each other Later when we put green here and leave mainly
white over here, maybe a little bit of
pinkish color weaken it, that it will all
separate nicely. There's a bit of a
texture to the meat. I'm adding some lines for that. Inside here is just
really lots of squiggly lines try to give
the same similar feeling of the leaves like we've been doing over here. I see the, I think
loco something, but it's all green
mixed up with it. For example, at this
point up to you, if you want to include some fine details
like this or not. I already started
doing so that's my decision.
Something like this. Okay, now these are done. Let's go to the egg that it became a bit more
pointed than it was before, but it's okay and
the yolk of the egg. I see no notles here then
all the way my shrubs. Mushrooms. Like I said over here
now because I already filled space and spend lots of time with the pencil rather than just the general shape and go into it with all the details with pen now I can be more flexible and
faster with the pen. Okay, so many mushrooms. Okay, almost done here. And let's put the meat
in place as well. I'm trying not to
make perfect lines. If you notice that they are a bit more natural
because you know it's meat and there are these marks on them. Again, for this part,
painting will help us a lot. When I'm adding these lines, I tilt my pen almost
parallel to the paper. They're not making
perfect lines. Just broken knives. Okay. That's also in. So the only thing left is some green onions,
spring onions. Okay. And now these
letters left on me. Okay. All must then. Okay, I will take a zip. Here we go. Now,
this part left on this part I was
talking about in my, everyone can draw letters. That lettering is not different than drawing because you just look at the
lines and copy them. As you can say, I'm doing
lettering here at one, it's all the same thing, you just look at the lines. But rather than looking at the line of the man I'm drawing, I'm looking at the lines of the letters and transferring
them to my paper. This is always difficult. The letter almost there and the rest is
not recognizable. I'm just putting some
marks and I will put green torquise color there. And that little
bit, I think we are done with our drawing. That maybe I will
just random lines to this because it
has a lot of texture. Later we will add a dark
green color to this. It won't be, oh, there's one more thing that
is important, it's erasing. Now, let's reveal our drawing without shaking, please. I'm trying to record here, you see no mess. I love that. Here's our rum and bowl that it's a bit
wonky on this side, but like I said, don't worry too much about this. Is for the drawing, I used my Faber Castel Eco pigment 0.1 and I will see on the next one which will be
the painting Jack next video.
7. Let's Paint! p1: Okay, now we're
back for painting. All this can go away that all the pens we're
done with that. We're going to use our pushes, and I'm going to bring some paints that I'm
going to use for this. Probably look, what do we
need M we need the greens, Maybe for the greenery, this mixture of it, at least for the
seaweed and black, of course, yellow and
this cadmium orange. We will need some brown
for this meat mixed. We may be the Indian red. Okay, let's bring
those colors in. In the materials I
forgot to mention, I also have water cups of water. 11 is clean that first I dip
it here and wash the paint away and then take clean water Is not very
clean at the moment, but it's good enough
clean water for picking up new paint so that
I don't mix my paints here. And this will be on the site. I'm now dipping my brush in the clean water to
pick up some paints. I think I will start with the. In the meantime, I have this ceramic tray to mix colors because
this is very dark, but it's not black, and
I'm going to create a mixture for it. Let's add here some black. Then I'm washing this off
with the dirty water and picking up fresh water
from the clean the jar. I always on the side some scrap papers to check out the colors if
they are like I want. I think this should be a bit when I'm picking black. I don't worry too much since black hides all
the other colors, that there's no chance of
black is getting dirty. Okay. It's a bit darker now, but now it needs more green. Okay, We're getting there. Yeah, I think this is it. You can put the
erasers away as well. It's a very tight space and here's our seaweed. I pick some black directed from there to dark
on the color of it. Here, right on the paper. I'll pick some green as
well and add to that. Then what I'm doing here is
doing on the paper on wet. Okay. Now the trick to paint these things because now over there
is wet, for example. If another important thing is I always have paper towel, I couldn't remember the name,
paper towel on the site. I'm just putting extra
paint here or extra water. That's also here,
right next to me. If I try to put green
here straight away, this is going to get messed up. While this is wet, I'm going to jump onto painting
something else. If I don't want the
colors to mix and sometimes if I want them
to mix, I just go ahead. But at the moment I don't because it's a
very shiny object. I'm going to leave shine. And it's going to be here. It's reflecting the white ball. I want it to be, everything
looks darker while wet. And then when it gets dry that you end
up with washtup colors. And it might disappoint
you this way. I guess you do, the better you will get at this. But try to put lots of pigments if you want your
colors to be nice and vivid. For example, because I carried all the pigment
here over here, it became very washed up. I'm going to add
more pigments here. This line is for the
red of the spoon, but I'm going to wait for that. Otherwise, it will just get
mixed up and we want to have this distinction of the
spoon, it has a red lining. Now, we can maybe paint
these greens here. For this, I will go with this subcreen
straightaway with it. Have to be perfect.
Very messy soup. This man. Yeah, there
are also some over here. I can also start adding
green to these ones. I picked up some more water
to add to the screen. I'm using this
directly because I want I want this
green to pop that. I'm not diluting
a lot with water. Here on the side, there
is lots of green. But what I do that I don't just wash all this
area with green, that I try to put
everything separately. When you look at it, you can
see that there is a bit of a texture and depth
going on there, rather than just plop of green. In some places there are more
pigment, some places less. Because when you
look at the picture, this is actually how it looks. That it's not the same tone of green all the time
that it changes. I think I will at this point pick up some
of the darker green. And in this area, I will get some dark green
because it looks much darker. And then they will probably
mix up a bit and that's okay. But this area looks much
darker than the rest. So it's okay that I'm getting a bit dark to the
root of this one as well, but maybe also here, a few drop. Okay. Now over here is very wet, but also to the scene, a bit of yellow because
to the end of the leaves, to the root of the
leaves maybe not end, but that it gets
much lighter color. And I will push some
green towards it. So it will be a nice gradient. There are some
leaves. I saw that. I forgot to paint. Yeah, that's it, That's going
outside, lines is good. I like the feeling it gives. This egg doesn't look yellow at all. I think
it's very orange. But I will try to do mix
of yellow and orange. Let's see, at the moment, this is very wet here
and over there, look, it's bleeding into
the rum and a bit. And I like that because
this is not a photo, it's a painting,
don't worry about it. And in fact, embrace these little things happening that I didn't do it
while it was very wet. This part will stay true
to the color I want to do, but some green is going
into that. It's only good. In the meantime, I see a
bit of shine over here, that I will add a bit of
yellow here in the middle to break up the texture and
to make it more interesting. Okay, now what's next? I could blow it to dry faster. This is one of the things that
painting with watercolors. Sometimes you just
need to wait for it to try and it takes edges. These are quite
separated from the rest. I will try to add the color
to the letters on the site. I'm going first, I'm
going to mix a color for this because this
looks like Torquise. There's this color
here called Malachite. I don't know, I will be of that. I will show you actually
it's this color. I'll pick a bit of that. But it's darker than that. This paint is opaque. It's not a C through paint. I will mix with green, dark. Yeah, sap, green, deep. I think this is pretty close
to the one in the picture. I will pick my tie in the brush, I decided to use
this number three, it's thicker brush, but I realized that the end of this is not
very pointy anymore, so I'm going to use
this press instead. That when I wait, it
gets nicely pointy. And that's what I
need right now. Okay, everything is recording, putting the color over here, it just
gets lots of lines, we can't recognize
anymore over here. Five more letters. And also there was this
logo, if you remember, among the greens showing up, they might get mixed up a bit. I'm not too worried about that, that I could barely see
it in, even in the photo. Okay, I'm going to
put this brush. I didn't think about
this meat here. It's almost white, but I
don't want to keep it white. White. It would look too raw. I will take a bit of water
here and take tine bit of red. At least it has a
bit of pinkish hue. And of course I don't want green to bleed into it all the way that some things you
want to keep separate. Okay? And leaving a bit of white
around it's not a problem. Don't worry about it
altogether, It will work. There is a. Thing with the mushrooms. They are also very
similar color to this, but I think it's yellowish
pinkish like the meat. I mixed a bit orange
to this color. Then I will give
them some color. The mushrooms, I think they
will look better this way, but I will also put a layer
of soup broth over them. They will come
together at the end. Okay, I think it's dried enough. I'm going to add the
yolk, Too much paint. It's like nicely
bleeding out here. Let's put that as well. I'll add orange to this so that I could
put orange directly. But when I make it mix on
the paper with yellow, it looks more interesting. Then there are these
edges that's left yellow and orange in the middle that it just looks
more interesting. I think this here is dry. I will put the red again. I'm going to use this
number three again. This is a very precise
line that I don't want to plead out and
come out too much. I picked lots of pigment,
not very watery. I will just add this red line. If you leave a bit of
white within the black, it's also still okay because
it's a very shiny object, that it will imitate the shine. I picked up some more water. It's very close to this. Okay. And that's that I don't
need red anywhere else. So I'm washing my brush that
there is this soup color. It's yellow, but there's this color
that I will add this to the orange mixture I
made to make this very watery wash for the soup. Then with that, I will
test it over here. For example, I will try to
go between the green mon, some of them I will go
over it so that it will show that they are
synced into the soup. There is the soup
line here that I will keep this pink is
still not right. Over here we are o. Here is a soup line that some of
the mushrooms I'm leaving on the surface and some of
them are under the soup. I can't even make this egg yolk bleed into it in a second. Yes, over here there
were some noodles. But while I was putting the ink with pen I forgot
I realized but that's also submerged under the
soup I went into fast. I didn't let my ink to dry, I intercept what was
happening there. Let's give it a second and
then I will a more soup. We're almost there. That
later I will add more soup. But I'm waiting for
this pink to dry. I don't want to get mixed up. In the meantime,
I'm going to mix up something for this meat
in the middle of that. I think it will be a
mixture of how is it called Indian red and raw umber. That is basically like a brown. Yeah, for the top of the meat. I think this works under it. I think I will put
some lighter color and then add a darker
layer on top of it and maybe just put this
rose page over the meat. Okay. And then my job will be to add the darkness
of the meat that, where it was cooked more.
8. Let's Paint! p2: I had to make a little
break for it to dry. Otherwise, I wasn't able
to continue any longer without mixing the colors that
I didn't want them to mix. This part was taking lots
of time to dry also because it's now winter and my
attic studio is freezing. When it's cold, it takes longer
for water colors to dry. Okay. Now, back to
the job at hand. I made a mixture for this meat. The top layer of the meat, I'm going to apply that. I'm trying to leave a bit of the color underneath so that it gives the
texture a little bit. And I'll make it come out of this line because it's not
like a perfect line there. And here there's
the piece of meat underneath and then there are the marks from
the grill, I think. Okay, over here is much darker. I will try to leave
lots of Pigman stare. This corner over here is dark. I will use the same color to add here in this
soup line as well. Because to add some depth to the soup that I will
do the same here. Some parts are just deeper then there is
more shadow around them. Okay. And I think I want to pick
some of this brown and just add some extra pigments in some parts that
look even darker that this part looks,
for example, very dark. Much darker than the rest. I will add that here as well. The edges there is more of the visible, maybe in parts, going
over this lamp as well. It picked up some of the
red here. It's okay. I'm not worried over here to unify these areas. I can also use this
broth after all. It's they're all in growth. And with this smaller
brush number three, I will pick up some of this darker green
that I mixed earlier. I want to make this part of it darker and I will let
some shadows basically. Also, I decided
that I want to make the seaweed here a bit darker, so I will add additional layer of the dark green made for it. But after adding this that there was a
shine in the middle. To preserve that,
I will just take my paper towel and press
it here in the middle. Take some of the extra layer away so there will
be a shine left. I think this pretty
much sums up, but we don't need this anymore. I'm not going to do
background like, it depends what your project is, If you want to throw the table underneath or
whatever you can do. I was thinking for this project, I'm not going to do that. But I will add a bit of
a shine around for that. I will just some
water from my brush. Pick it up. That's the
good thing about water. Coles, you can always pick
some good old paper towel. In this part, I'm going to pick some color that there
was a nice brown, old looking wood underneath. But I think it needs to be
a touch darker for this. I will take some, not too much, some of the amber. I think it's too dark. I will add some more
of this yellow ocher. Okay, That's about right. I think what I will do
that I will just go around the ball with this color that I just want to use
this color to frame the painting we made today bit. I'm adding more pigments
to where it looks darker, where it looks light, sorry. And then I will
extend this line like this and the same here. Then I'm washing my brush
completely from this pigment. With clean but wet brush, I add another like that, you can't see the line anymore. That is just keep
getting wider and wider. There's more P and the rival. Okay. I'm trying to do
this quickly before it dries because then the edge
becomes sets in the paper. Normally for this I would
just twist the paper because it's much easier to do this way. I don't have much space to put my brush the
other way around. I'm hitting the phone stand. But I'm trying to do my best what I did, basically, I
put the color right around. And then by adding more water, I just pulled the
pigments away and away so that it creates the nice gradient that
after this is done, you can and more like a shadow under the
ball a bit more and try to make it even. And I think that's it. Our painting is done.
Describe a photo. Click. I'm putting
my brush down. This is how I do my drawings, normally on my
sketch journal that when I want to have
things more precise, I do enjoy making
these paintings. I hope you enjoy seeing
my process as well. Hopefully, I will see
your see the conclusion. I hope you enjoy this
class. That's it Jack. Is there anything
you want to add? Okay, maybe on the conclusion. Okay, see you later. We forget one more thing. The most important thing
that is splays splash a bit. They always look good. Let's remove this here. I want to splash some oranges in the honor of this egg that it
looks very nice. Here we go, some
of them are here. Then I think it needs some
of this nice dark green, especially where the
greens are here and here. Not too much. Now our
painting is complete. I washed off my brush and yes, now we can go into the
conclusion, it's done. See on the other side by?
9. Let's Conclude!: Okay, now, conclusion video. We still didn't get that Jack. Let's have a look.
How do I look? I look nervous. There's my new light.
It's a game pet. Now, conclusion. Thank you very much for
sticking with me until the end. I hope it wasn't too difficult. I appreciate every single one of you for taking
part in my class. This wouldn't happen
without your support. Now you know all my secrets and the secret is
there are no secrets. The pencil sketch drew and painted my rum
and ball together. You can use what you learned here in your own
sketch journals to capture your own memories or wherever drawing and
painting is needed. The more you practice,
the better you will get. Don't hope or look for
shortcuts or magical touches. Just get yourself
a creative habit, like keeping a
sketch journal and make practicing art
part of your life. A few classes on that
topic so you can continue your creative
journey with those classes. Don't forget to share
your projects with me. I'm always happy to see
students projects in my inbox. I answer and comment
on every single one of them and I share them
on my insigramcanto. You make sure to follow
me there as well as here. If you find the time, please
leave a review, Jack. They should leave a review. That's important. That's
what you told me. Let's be honest.
There's always time, Jack, this is cold
because it's water. Okay? Reviews help
the future students to make a decision if they
should take this class or not. Wouldn't you like
to do them a favor? One final thought
on the way out. I don't take myself too seriously, and
neither should you. We are just some apes hurdling through space on a bedrock. And while we do that, why not make something
beautiful? Wouldn't you agree? So go make something beautiful. See you next one. By check. Do you want to say by like this, by no, Your behavior
is killing me. Check is here, script is here, camera is here,
microphone is here. It's a sip of water. I'm in my attic studio, my paintings behind me. I'm just mumbling. Let's get to the point. Okay, Jack, why don't
you go home today, and we are back in
the studio now. I'm going to switch switch back. It's not switch
back because we've never been there. I'm
going to switch to. Okay. Jack, why don't you
go get copy or something. Go home early if you want. I got this look. I can be nice in this one. I didn't do the overhead
driving part yet. It's still coming, so I
don't have anything to show for the photoshoot. Okay. Maybe I will show the
one from my sketch because I already did this
and I drew my ramen ball, but it was a ramin I hit
last year and I finally had time to show some
love to my sketch. But this is my old
sketch journal. Here's my new sketch journal. Let's take a zip to see
my. To see the face. Come on, focus on
this face, not me. Yes. Can you see it Is. So it's going to be a
long interview. I think. Then I show a painting
complete with Magical. Otherwise, I'm screwed. I love saying this
but but working as am I want to say,
independent teacher. I'm a watercolor artist. And why don't you be
more serious like this? This is more understandable. I try to make art access.
A plane is passing. Let's wait. There's too much
you can treat yourself to. Lots of happening, okay? You can go and treat
with some practice. Of course, art is
a part of life. Art is part of life and the war. Okay? One of those should
do. Don't say anything. Because he's very fragile. No emotional. No. What is he? Don't say anything
because he's very touchy. Acceptable. What is the word? Sensible. Sensational.
What is the word? That when something is so
soft, very fragile, Sensitive. Yes, that's the word,
sensitive. That, okay. So don't hope telling
people not to hope, I don't take myself too seriously on a bedrock once I start doing
this is not too bad. But until I start recording, I'm so stressed and I do
everything to avoid doing this and I procrastinate
so much, I don't know why. Okay. Now, what do we do? Stop. See on the
other end there's no, this is we are in the class now.
