1. Introduction: Right, pursuing depression for Mondelez, I've understood the vital role of colors, shapes, and textures. This realization keeps on improving the region that I build towards my passion of contributing towards the great artistic community. Hello, my name is Mercury and I'm, I'm an artist and a YouTuber. The last seven years I've been making Mandela portraits in various dimensions and sizes. You might also know me from my Instagram handle two points, Mondelez. In this course we're going to run Monday light, which is fusion of half-man and half abstracts and flower design. Their scope briefly through the flow of this course. Firstly, we'll practice few basic shapes and patents which are required for our final project. Then we will move on to creating a perfect grid as per our final designs. Once done with it, we will start drawing our Mondelez. Starting with drawing half-moon data and how sunflower design using black fine liner. Then coloring our final Mandela design using simple techniques. I encourage you to be creative and experimenter in this course. And I'm here to guide you in this journey and show you the techniques and my favorite ways to do it. I have created a free downloadable worksheet to help you with your art. This printable PDF content, the steps involved in grid making and Monday light. I wish my Monday lab tutorial spirit bring you smiles and happiness. And you will understand each and every step properly. I'm really looking forward for you to join this course. Divert and be creative and experience the benefits of drying Mondelez yourself. 2. Material Required: What material you need for this whole course. You can get these tools easily. Stationary stores, skin, Benson, protractors, grind concise. Here I'm using a stateless come fast. You can also use any other kind of simple compass. Black fine liner. There are various brands you can try like steadily art line, Sharpie microphone, whichever fine liner is available. You can use it for your Monday. You can draw them on della with pencil if you want. But dark markers make the patents cleaner and more definite. A benzyl had someone said in 18, we'll never know when the line is done with a marker pen. You have a sense of stability and the line seems more clear. Let's see which color we can use for our Mandela. These are, Oh my goodness, this particular pad content hundred different shapes. You tend to do a team brush tip and fine liner. I will be using these markers for our Mandela. There are many other brands you can try as part of an ability, like copy, Sharpie, stirred letters, etc. Next, up, grind pepper. Use it on hundred to 300 GSM drying paper. Gsm stands for grams per square meter. It defines the quality of paper. 3. Pattern Making: Practice is directly proportional to patients, because attaining perfection in the development of a skill is a time-consuming process. One must stay patient and keep practicing more and more when picking up a new scale to perfect it. Use grid paper or graph paper so that you can work on symmetric and perfect patents. First try simple smooth curve in each block. Second when is similar to first when with Baidu curve. This better design is bit difficult compared to other designs. So try to find some simple techniques for you to dry it easily. If you're having trouble with drying it symmetrically. First practice one side than the other. Next up spiders. We're going to practice some variations of it as well. You can experiment with different shapes and create your own patterns for Mundell aren't perfect and art requires the power of patients in learning and the zeal to work hard. And it is patient that will lead you to your desired goal. If you lose patients easily, you end up losing the opportunity of learning a new skill. You need to practice these patterns in order to draw beautiful Mondelez. Next TO flow, very shame. You can add as many petals on sites. I do like if you think that some of these patterns are too difficult or easy for you to draw, replace them, or you can even repeat similar patterns you like the most in your Mandela. Different patterns will look different in different spaces. If you can draw these shapes like circles, squares, lines, curves, you can relax and enjoy drawing repeated to patents. And you will be surprised and delighted to learn that you have an amazing artist within you. 4. Grid Making: Mandela grid is something myself and many other artists use as a template for our creations. In this tutorial, you will see how easy it is to create beautiful Mondelez. Have a sense of symmetry and balance. Let's start drawing. Here. I've taken a full-size drawing paper. Now step one is to find two midpoints for semi-circles. For that measure the length of paper and mark two points in the middle with a gap of 1 cm, the same port opposite side. Now, draw lines through those points. My descender of remaining two sites and draw a line through those points as well. Highlight the two centers. From each point using your compass, draw semicircle of radius 9.5 centimeter. When to have the midpoint and outer circle to work in. Place your protractor over one of the point and Mark angularity regions with the gap of ten degrees. New Deal either side, blank to work on abstracts and flour. Bless this scale and draw lines through those points we just mine. And the center point, as shown in the video. So that you will get 18 equal partitions of one semi-circle. Using a compass. Draw several more circles with the gap of around 1 cm or refuel want vary the size of each circle to create an interesting button. Here we will draw 12 semicircle is for our Mandela. Our Mandela grid is ready. Hope you understood the whole process. 5. Drawing Mandala: Without even realizing it, you might have made a Mandela before. Ever cut out snowflakes as a kid, or maybe do a little complex repetitive pattern in the notebook. There's a reason we innately food to these beautiful and intricate designs. Mandela is an arrangement of simple shapes repeated in a circular pattern. But here we're going to do a small experiment and draw a fusion of Mandela and extract some floral design. So let's start drying. Now is different by starting from the center, draw whatever simple shape you want inserted the first weight. Or you can follow me through. Same shape in the ways next to it with detailing inside it. Keep working your way outward using the circles and lines as your markers. This helps keep the symmetry in your Mandela. Just keep trying the same shape in each village and working outward every time you complete a blue circle. Grind Mandela is more fun and rewarding than you probably think. The results are probably better than what you expect. Whether you think you have no drawing skills at all. You are a seasoned skater. Building up different shapes in your Mandela. You can change up the type of shapes that you are drying. I'll stick to a team. It's completely up to you. Try setup. Got this triangle is Leo, straight lines, curved lines and spiders. Esteem handler gets bigger. You might like to experiment with longer lengths and larger shapes like this petal shapes that end up overlapping the agenda. At any point, you can go back over your Mandela and add some thicker lines and other shapes and details if you like. How much detail you put in is up to you. From circa seven to eight, drop colors with border and flowery shapes. We learned in previous lesson. There are no rules or guidelines on how Mandela should look like. You can make it look however you want it. You can add more patterns to make it look beautiful or leave it simple and plain. Each one has its own charm. You can add shading to a drawing to make it more realistic and complex. What's more, you can even draw a square, Mandela. It will do Mandela's a geometric and interesting field. Once you keep Brian Moore Mondelez, you'll come up with your own shapes and designs to make them, and you will draw them faster. Eventually you will develop your own style of creating Mondelez. You can also try making them free hand once you gain the confidence. You can also create Mondelez with watercolors or create watercolor background syndrome underlies over them. Drying and Mandela is not rocket science at all. All you need to do is keep trying. Start with something small and keep progressing. As you master the skill, you will be amazed at your own progress as you keep working on your skill. Experiment with different styles, types of Mondelez. Don't restrict yourself to digestion potato drying off Mondelez. Now that we're done with Mandela drawing pi, Let's move on to drawing some flowers. Dry semicircle within the larger one. That is about half its size. If you want this employer betters to be small, you can draw this circle bigger. And if you want the British to be big, draw this circle smaller. Now that we have the center of the flower and outrageous setup, we can begin practicing the petals. The key to drawing flower petals is to draw them moving away from the center. Think of Sandra is coming off this and add some details to it. Start drawing petals. People start to freak out a bit at this part, but try not to let it worry you too much when you get to this step. Again, nature isn't perfect, flowers aren't perfect. Pay attention to this spacing that I'm using between the petals and how they aren't perfectly even. Now that we have the first layer of petals, we can start adding the ones underneath Dr. triangular shape that connects the two petals. Once you've finished trying it with pencil highlighted with black fine liner. Now draw vertical lines. We didn't reduce circle to create checkered pattern. Let's practice drawing. Lose. A great way to not only add variations to your lives, but also give more perspective to your drawing is to use angles are slammed when drying this team. Feel free to play with the shapes of leaves and see what you like. I drew my leaf barely small and with some jagged edges to give it a naturalistic feel. A bunch of leaves is a great way to fill the freight easily. It also adds movement to the page because these leaves to be dangling or hanging. Starting by drawing the center line, then add small lines to mark where you want your lives to be. Next, idea leaves angling each fair differently. Last part is to give it a final touch by adding curvy lines, two petals and leaves. We will color our Mandela in next lesson using simple techniques. 6. Coloring Mandala: Have you ever wondered how some mighty stare able to find perfect color combination that does seem to work every time. Each they're just tired. It's science and we call it color theory. In this class, I'm going to choose color combinations that are appealing and which will look good in our Monday right here, I will be using 0 markers for coloring our Mandela. These are the brush tip markers. Keep a separate sheet of the same type of paper you are working on next to you. So you can paste colors first before laying them down on your artwork. We will use complimentary color scheme for our Mandela. Yellow and purple flower and leaves used by your shares. For predators. Yellow and mustard, yellow, checkered patterns, orange leaves, huge dark and light shade of green. What Mandela design we will use gray and purple shares flesh to share. So Greg Cloud, grit and lead gray. Next up, sky blue. And four last two layers use dark and light shade of purple. They start coloring our Mandela. Starting with sunflower. Use yellow to color better, leaving some white gap in the middle or gradient effect. Photo borders apply mustard color. Now Florida lives with multiple, use dark green and poor single large predators use light green. Highlight the veins using the worksheet. Once you decide which color looks good on which part started applying these colors on our final Mandela. We will require some time for coloring. Let me explain some details on how we should use markers for coloring properly. And some tips and techniques about it. Might've goes green, beautiful vivid colors. They can also leave your artwork full of unwanted lines, extra dots, and sometimes even ruin your paper. How does one color evenly with markers, especially when coloring such small and complex images? When coloring with markers, it's best to use more even strokes. Tried to leave lots of space between your hand holding the market and your paper. Make sure your strokes are all moving in the same direction. You don't want to use a back-and-forth motion. But ensuring all your strokes go the same way, we'll give you a nice even cooler. Essentially, you want to pick up your hand and move it back to your starting point to a Judas model fluid lines. Contoso helps to start with your lightest colors like your lower pink and move towards the darker, more dominating ones like black and brown. Lake saturation points while coloring with markers, you may notice lines in your market strokes. Light small strokes will help you elevate this effect and minimize your lines. You can also use a blender marker to smooth out these tricks in color. Blender markers at a t colorless markers that helps art fully blurry lines, as well as create shading effects. Bare attention to the type of markers you are using. In addition to thickness, there are different types of Margaret tapes suggests seasonal or brush. Knowing the difference and currently using your markers will keep your marker perspiration functioning for much longer. Here when I'm project is complete. Now let's move on to Mandela finance. Use light grip or first layer. Next layer. The middle design, right? Repeat the same for next two layers, light gray then lead. Few more tips when using markers for you at artworks. Brush tip markers are particularly useful as the integral of the IOT is to draw with thick or thin lens center. Incredibly helpful for intricate detail work. But because of their delicate brush tip, it's essential to use an extra lights bridge to bring your tip. This style of mercury is not meant to be pressed down heart. Again, lots of space and a light touch will help you. As too much pressure will cause the tip to lose its shape. A delicate touch, however, will allow you to get into small corners of your artwork. Like a calligraphy pen. Tips are useful for creating a variety of thick or thin lines. But again, care must be taken to afford the integrity of your teeth. So much pressure which measure tip down. Losing the ability to make those team crisp lines be good peer markers and they will be good for you and you arrived to work. When blending marker colors, starting with the lightest color in your palette is critical. You can layer more colors on top in descending order from lightest to darkest using small strokes. To use various thickness and styles when choosing your palate. Don't feel limited by one box or brand. How to color evenly with markers. When layering colors using light, which is key to over saturate your paper. Using the small strokes and living lot of whitespace will allow you to mix in more colors with ease to create your unique effects. Using a blender marker by layering colors will also help you get a nice even loop and help create some cool effects. Don't be afraid to play with colors. When you start to fill in an area, you will first one to blocking the light base color. Now using markers is similar to painting. We can lay down course to get darker version of the same color. As you add more layers to an area, you can start adding shadow and highlights and even blend colors together to create a sense of depth. We won't go into all the dependencies. This is simply an introductory tutorial datas lot of cool medical techniques you can use here. Here our final project is complete. I hope you liked seeing this Mandela takes shape. And I hope it gives you a nice to try drawing when you start small, start simple. Experiment with shapes and colors and let it be fun and relaxing.
