1. A little about me & today's class: Hello and welcome to yet another fun-filled art session with Brenda's are for hot. It is wonderful to see you all here again. And for those who have joined me here for the first time, let me introduce myself to you all. Hi. I'm Brenda, artist, solopreneur and a small business owner from India. I have always enjoyed drawing and painting, but I really took to painting when I discovered the various art forms in there I had to offer. Besides this, I also conduct art workshops from time-to-time. I also take up commission artworks and sell my original and my art prints via platforms like Etsy, Facebook, Instagram, and install module. You will find all this and more from my life on my Instagram, my Facebook, and my Pinterest page, which go by the same name renders out for hot. Now, in today's class, we will be learning yet another team-based, wildly painting, Nevada, the tree of life. Now, before going into the details of what today's class is going to be, let's quickly try and understand what the Varley tribe is all about. I have previously spoken about this tribe in my last class, so we'll do a quick introduction today. The valleys are a native tribe of India and are found in the western regions of Maharashtra. And good rod. Now, did you know that although this tribe dates back to 3,000 BC, their paintings gained popularity only around the 1970s. Like any other native tribe, the valleys are simple and light, living close to nature. Now. Their occupations involve things like fishing, farming, hunting, et cetera. There are just pretty unique and it has been compared to the early prehistoric cave paintings. I guess. It has a universal appeal because their teams are simple. They use simple geometrical, symmetrically figures. And, you know, they depict their day-to-day lives. Typically. Traditionally, if you see oddly painting is done on the mud walls of their homes during festivities and they use ground rice-based to do it. Now, that is the reason why all the motives are generally white and the contrast beautifully against the early tones of the mud walls. A tree of life, if you see, like across cultures in the body culture as well, symbolizes abundance, diversity, our connection and our interdependence on the nature. And, you know, for the wireless as well. A tree of life symbolizes all this and much more. They are not only believe in living harmoniously with the nature, but also worship it. If you typically look at barley tree of life painting, you will notice that it is abuzz with activities. There are humans, birds, animals, and so much action going around it. Now in today's class, we will learn to make this tree of life from start to finish. And we will also learn all the elements that go into making this beautiful tree of life. So in this class, you can expect to learn all the basic motives of the worldly art form. Make your own practice sheets and learn some tips and tricks to improve your strokes and get a team-based painting ready by the end of the class. While I recommend this class for anyone who has an interest to learn a new art form. I strongly recommend it to beginners as well as this class will take you on a step-by-step process to learn all the important aspects and motifs that are needed to paint your own bodily art in the future. So do join me in my next video. I'll see you there. 2. Material/ Supplies : Hi and welcome back. This is basically all the material that we're going to use today to make this painting. Let's quickly run through what we would need. So you're going to need some loose sheet of paper for practicing the various elements that go into making the tree of life. And along with the paper, you would need your usual suspects, your, your pencil, eraser scale, et cetera. And for the final artwork, you can take a card stock paper, or any paper that is above 240 GSM if you're going to use watercolor or acrylic colors. Now, you want to try it on a canvas. You can again use a regular Canvas which is primed. And you can directly sketch it with a pencil and use a brush and paint. This is your regular card stock paper. You can take it in any color of your choice. Just remember that when you are using a black card, stock paper, or a black canvas, your paint has to be right. There is not much color in wildly. It's generally monochromatic. So if it isn't black, it's going to be with a white pen or white acrylic paint. Or if you're going to use white paper, remember to use black paint and black markers. I'm moving on to this paper. This is a coffee stained, decorative edge paper, and I've made it myself. This looks pretty good for team-based paintings, tribal paintings, and the coffee tint kind of adds to the beauty of the painting. If you want to know more about how to make this paper, you can refer to my previous video that I've shown you how to stain the paper first and then get these beautiful deck edges to it. Yeah. So moving on to the pens. I've got a few fine liner Micron pens from sacra. The common varying thickness. So you can use these or you can also use a ruling pen. If you don't have access to any, you can always use a marker or a Sharpie. And this one is a regular gel pen in creamy white. So any good brand which is accessible in your area, you can use that. I'll be using acrylic colors. So this is a black acrylic color piece of clean clot brush. It is a double zero brush. And you can use a thicker brush if you're comfortable. But for the fine line and for the finer details, this is a good size to start with. A clean cup of water. That's about it. That's all the material that you would need today to get started with this painting. So before we start the painting, let us get understanding the elements that go into this tree of life. Barley painting today. And I'll be showing you each and every element so that you can implement it in your final painting. So for that, to join me my next class, I'll see you there. Bye bye. 3. how to draw Warli Human Figures (1): Hi and welcome back. In this video, we will learn to draw the various elements, like different types of human figures, animals, birds, et cetera, in barley style. I'll teach you how to draw every single element in detail. But before learning these various wildly elements, Let's keep some practice sheets ready for that. Take a sheet of paper and draw some horizontal lines and divide the page into multiple rows. Now, start with a simple, basic wildly figure from the left end of the row. And keep practicing the same figure multiple times till you reach the other end of the road. You can do this with a pencil so that in case you go wrong, you can always erase it and start all over again. Practice all the different barley figures I have shown here. As these practice sheets will not only help you to get better with your strokes and fingers, but they will also serve you as a reference guide for your future projects with all types of figures in one place. Now that are practice sheets are ready. Let us learn in detail to make the Varley figures. You can either use a pencil or you can directly use wrote during pen like this one, or a micron pen, or even a fine liner pen like the one I'm using. Here. I'm using a fine liner pen in size number seven in the color black. Alright, now let us begin to make our first wildly figure, which is the Varley mail. Start by making a filled circle, a small vertical line below it, denoting the neck. And draw an inverted triangle below it. And add one more triangle connecting the upper triangle. Now color these triangles. Add legs and arms. This is a regular, basic bodily male figure. Now let's draw a wildly female figure. A filled circle as the head. A small line as the neck to filled triangles denoting the upper and the lower body. Now, just next to the head, draw a small field circling. This will denote a hair band. And this is what will differentiate a wildly female figure from a largely male figure. Draw a pair of legs and arms. And our Varley female figure, It's ready. Now, let's learn to draw these figures, doing some activity. Let's start withdrawing a Varley female. Now, let's draw a basket on top of our head. And let's show as if she's holding it with her arms. Next, let's draw another figure. Doing some more activity. We will start with a vowel e, mail, a filled circle and neck at filled triangles, a pair of legs. Now, draw a horizontal line on the upper triangle to show as if he's holding a big stick across his shoulders and a pair of arms holding it. Moving on to more activity, let's learn to draw a wildly figure with a bending down posture. Start with a lower triangle this time. And instead of drawing the upper triangle above it, draw it sideways and tilted like this. To show that he or she is bending over something. Now, draw a neck and the head to it. Color these triangles. Long legs as if he or she is kneeling down like this. Now, we can add props like a pot or a plant and draw two arms to show some action around it. Something like this. Now let's try drawing one more bending pose. Start with a lower triangle. You can draw the upper triangle this time, tilting towards the left side this time and color them. Draw a neck ahead connecting to it. You can also add a haben this time to make a wildly female figure. Draw a pair of legs to show that she is kneeling down. Now, add any prop of your choice and draw a pair of arms to show that she's holding it. Now let's learn to draw some sitting courses. For this. Draw a triangle on the baseline and color it. Add the upward triangle to it. I'm coloring it as well. Draw a neck and the head. Now for the legs, start them from the tip of the lower triangle. Something like two inverted V's. Now draw some prop like a book or a utensil holding it. And that's how a sitting barley figure will look like. Let's attempt the sitting pose one more time. Again. Start with drawing a triangle on the baseline. Color it. Add another triangle on top of it, a neck and the head. Haben. Draw the legs from the lower tip of the triangle, the arms from the upper triangle. Let's draw one more bar live woman to give this woman some company. Again. Start with a baseline and move upwards. Coloring the two triangles. You can add a neck ahead, a pair of legs, and a pair of arms. So far, we have learned to draw some basic, wildly male and female figures, different activities and postures, different prompts. These are some of the poses and postures you can mix and match with different props and objects and use anywhere in your paintings. Now, in the next video, I'll teach you to draw some Varley domestic animals. So do join me there. See you. 4. How to draw Warli Domestic Animals: Hi and welcome back. In this video, let's learn to draw some bodily domestic animals of a force wildly animal is a Varley puppy and a dog. Start by making a small inverted triangle. To this, Let's add ears on either side. And just next to the yield. And the triangle. Let us know make a horizontal triangle and fill it up. Now, let's draw another triangle joining the first horizontal triangle. So now we have a triangle that denotes the dog's face. And two horizontal triangles that denote the body of the dog. Do this. Let's add a small team, a pair of front legs and a pair of hind legs. And our lovely puppy is now ready for a Varley dog. All we'll have to do is follow the same steps as we did for the barley puppy. But this time we will just make the dimensions a little bigger. So I'm starting with an inverted triangle. Adding a pair of ears. Do horizontal triangles. A pair of front legs, and a pair of hind legs. Let's add a tail. And our bodily dog is ready. So by just changing the dimensions, we have created a small dog and a big dog. Moving on. Let's draw a bodily cow. For this. Let's start again with an inverted triangle. Now just next to it, Let's draw two horizontal triangles and color them. Notice how the size of the triangles is much bigger. Then those are drawing a wildly puppy or a dog? No. And the front legs and the hind legs. Let us draw a pair of horns and color them. Add a pair of years on either side of the face. Now let's draw a longish team and color the end. We'll also draw a small adult at the back of the second horizontal triangle. And barley cow is ready. Now let's draw a volleyball. All the steps are exactly the same as for a wildly cow. Only this time we will add a small hump on the first horizontal triangle, something like this. Let's color it and add our second horizontal triangle and colored it as well. The front legs and a pair of hind legs. Let's add a tail now. We'll add a pair of horns and a pair of years and are widely bull is now ready. So, so far, we have learned to draw a bodily puppy, a dog of our leak out and Nevada. Now let's draw a Varley horse. This is slightly different from the rest of the animals we have learned so far. Start with making a triangle that is narrow and long. Something like this. Color it. Now draw a slanting line going down from the triangle. Tweet, join two horizontal triangles and color them. Now let's draw a pair of long front legs and a pair of hind legs. Now let's soften the edges of the triangle that denote the face. And add a pair of yours. Let's draw some hair or mean, starting from the top of the head, going all the way to the back of the triangle. A nice bushy tail and are widely horse is now ready. Now let us learn to draw some bodily hens and chickens. For this, draw, a single inverted triangle. Fill it up with color, and add a pair of legs to it right at the bottom of the triangle. Now, for the head, draw an oval and a small v. The end of the oval to show its beak. Color the face of our rooster, or a hand, and draw some feathers at the back. You can color the oval. And our lovely rooster, or a hen is now ready. Next, let us draw some different type of wildly hints. For this. Make a slightly elongated triangle, something that resembles a boomerang. To the front end. Add a small circle. This will denote its head. And draw a pair of legs and a small beak to the silicon. Now add feathers at the far end of the triangle and a small crest. So this is another way you can draw a wildly hen or the chicken. So now we have covered all the domestic animals inwardly style. I'll see you in the next video, where we will learn to draw some barley, wild animals and birds. See you there. 5. How to draw Warli Wild Animals: Hi and welcome back. In this video, we will learn to draw a few Varley wild animals and birds. Let's begin with a wildly peacock. Start by making a horizontal triangle and then one more smaller triangle inside it. Now, color the outer part, leaving the central part empty. To this. At the end of the horizontal triangle, draw a big oval. Within this oval, we will be drawing some feathers. So start by making a few feathers. And for the neck, Let's make a shape like a question mark. Now. Taken this at the base and color it so that it looks like a NIC. Now for the face, draw an oval extending from the neck and draw a small v to denote its beak. Now let's add a beautiful crest onto its head and the dots for the eyes. Let's draw a pair of legs and some more detailing on the feathers. You can embellish it with the design of your choice. And are wildly peacock in style. One is ready. Let's try one more style of drawing a peacock. Start with an oval this time. Make it nice and take this, added the neck and color it. Remember we made a neck for our first peacock. Make her neck in a similar style. Thicken it at its base and color it. For the face. Let's draw a small circle and add a nice long beak. A small dots for the eyes, and some beautiful crest. Now for the Federalists, let's just make a few feathers here. And at the end of each feather, Let's add those typical peacock motifs. Now, make a big circle that encloses this entire set of feathers. And picking the outline. You can add some detailing onto the feathers and some detailing on the body of the peacock as well. A pair of legs. And our barley peacock in style too, is ready. You can use either styles in your final painting. Now let's learn to draw a bodily monkey. Start by making an inverted triangle and fill it up with color. Now at the base of this triangle, add a more flatter triangle, which will make it look like the monkey sitting. Now to this, add a neck and the head. Color it. And now let's make some big monkey years. So a bed of yours on either side of the head, a nice long curly tail, and a pair of legs. Arms are wildly. Monkey is now ready. Let us draw a wild wildly cat for this starts with making a branch so that we can show that the cat is climbing up a tree or a brunch. Let's draw a longest triangle, something like this, and color it. This will denote its body. Now, let's draw a pair of front legs and a pair of hind legs. A nice tail at the end. The circle for the face. Let's make a pair of ears just on top of the circle. And are wildly wild cat is now ready. You can add stripes or dots if you want to give it more detailing. Now, let's move on to making one more motif, which is the bodily bird. For this makeup flat, oval. Add a neck and the head to it and act two curved lines on either side of our oven. Color these curved lines. Add a beak and draw some lines just under the feathers to add some more details. Towards the end of the oval at a triangle and some more feathers. We'll denote the tail of the bird. Color the triangle, and color the body of the bird as well. Of a Varley bird is ready to take flight. Let's draw a bird in a slightly different style. Start by making a shape like this. Now for the deal, make a petal like sheep and add fine lines inside it. Color the body ad and long neck. And for the head, make a circle. Let's draw a nice long beak. And on either side of the body, make two curved lines that will denote its feathers. Add some more detailing. Just under the curve lines. And add barley bird and style to Israeli as well. As I said, you can use either of these styles in your painting. So far, we have learned how to make some human figures, some domestic animals, and some wild animals. I'll see you in my next video, where we will learn to make a few more wildly elements that can be added to our final painting. So do join me in my next video. I'll see you there. Bye-bye. 6. A few more Warli motifs: Hi and welcome back. Now that we have learned how to draw bodily domestic animals and wild animals, let's learn to draw some more elements that we can add in our final painting. Let's start with a simple bodily harm. Start by making a triangle and draw two lines on either ends of the triangle to make it look like a hat. Now, extend the line, draw one more line just above it so that they make two parallel horizontal lines. This line will show the roof of the hut. Let's add a vertical line, which will denote a beam that holds the roof and the ground. Now, let's draw a ladder. And this will make the outer side of the heart. Now we can add some more details. This heart, Let's start by making some crisscross lines. All this can be done without a scale or any kind of a measurement because it's all free hand. So I'm just making these slanting lines inside the triangle that we first made. And we'll make one more set of crisscross lines from the other side. And that will make it look like attached hot. Now, let us add some details inside and outside the bodily harm. Let's start by making a Varley figure sitting outside the heart. If you remember, we had practiced these forces in our practice sheet. You can always refer to those and include the choice of your poses in your final painting. So this is ready. We've made a wildly man sitting outside the hut. Let's add some props to the heart now. Say like a basket kept inverted on the rooftop. Now inside the heart, let us show a small firewood on which utensil escaped. Maybe we can also include a wildly woman cooking inside the heart. So I'm gonna make this wildly woman slightly bent because she is looking inside the vessel and cooking something. There. We can color this. We have added some details to this little largely heart. You can add as many props as you want to. I'm showing a small pot kept on top of this roof here. And our Marley had is ready. I'm going to include one more style of drawing the Varley hut in my reference sheet. So you can always go back and check if you want to include that in your final painting. Now, let's make a var listen. Start with a simple circle. Add some big and small lines around it, which we'll denote its rays. It's a pretty simple sun. The ones probably we learned as kids in school to draw. So just embellish it with a few dots at the end. So at the end of every big and small sun ray, I'm going to add these dots. You can also color or do some kind of a design inside the inner circle. I'm going to leave it plain for now, but you can add as many designs as you want to. Moving on, let's make our mood of oddly moon. For that, I'm going to draw a semicircle and close it and show that it is a small sliver of a moon. Color it inside. And I'm going to show some rays around the moon, which denote the moon race. Again, I'm going to make some small dashes, some big and some small. So these broken lines will denote the moon race. I'm going to make these rays all around the moon. You can show a full moon as well. And once you make a full Boon, just remember to show these small little stars at the end of every ray so that we know that this is the moon and that is the sun. I'm making these simple five-point stars here at the end of every moon rate. And our Varley moon is ready. Wasn't that simple? Now that we have learned to draw the Varley sun, the moon, somebody has. Let's learn to draw some other wildly elements like the bullock cart, which is an important part of a lovely artwork. So for a wildly bullock cart, Let's start by making two slanting lines such that we want to show that the bullock cart is resting to these lending lines. Let us add double lines of cross the line to show the wooden framework of the cart. Towards the end of the cart, let's show a wheel wouldn't deal with some spokes or beam that is resting on the ground to which the bulls will be tied. And some more details onto the card. So our bullock cart, which is resting, is ready. We can show a bullock cart that is in motion. For that. Let us start by drawing a wooden. We'll add some spokes around it and draw two parallel lines that make the cart. To this. I'm adding the double vertical lines to show the wooden framework of the cart. And I'm going to draw a beam now, mid air. And on the either side of this beam will show two blocks. You can refer to the domestic animals that we practiced to look at the drawing of how we drew up Bullock. Our triangle for the face to horizontal triangles for the body. A better find and front legs, a tail, a Han, and a pair of years. Let's color this one. Bullock is ready. Now we make one more bullock on the other side of the beam. Once this will look almost done, let us show that the beam is extending onto that block as well. And our hula card with two blocks is ready. Now that we have learned all the elements that go into making this wildly tree of life. Let us now learn to make the tree itself. So for that, do join me in my next video. I'll see you there. Bye bye. 7. Making the tree: Hi, and welcome back. Before making the final tree, let us see the different types of trees that are seen individually. Let's start with a simple Spirit shaped tree. Roughly sketch an inverted heart and add a drunk to it. I'm making this uneven line at the base to denote the ground. Now, roughly daycare center. And start adding branches to the outline. We will be adding leaves to it later. You can add as many branches as you want. The more the number of branches, the fuller the tree will look. Now, it is the outline. Once you have drawn the number of branches, you want a rough sketch of our tree is now ready. Now we'll add branches and leaves to it. For that. Just draw these small lines alternately on the long branches. And just before the end of each branch, draw some filled circles like this. So this tree has small filled circles as leaves. I'm going to add a few more branches to fill the gaps. And I'm going to continue making these small branches and making filled circles as leaves. So we have almost completed filling the tree with branches and the leaves. And this is how the completed tree will look. For the final project. We will be combining two types of trees and coming up with something totally new. So I'll be taking the shape from this tree and the leaves from this one and leave, combine it together and put it in our final project and make a completely different story. Start by making a border on your Canvas or your final paper on which you're going to make this painting. So keeping this reference pictures, we are going to make a trunk in this style and leaves from this type. For the trunk. Let's start from the base of the canvas or the paper. Start by making an uneven line that denotes the ground. Now, roughly from the center. Draw a trunk. Once the trunk is ready, let us start making the branches. So I'm going to start making branches from the trunk. And I'm going to keep adding. As we move ahead. I've taken a small center point here. And I'm going to add branches and ended on this center point. As I've mentioned earlier. You can make as many branches as you want. Now I have two branches ready on either side. I'm going to make one here in the center and another one to go with it. So this is a good shape. I'm just going to add one more branch at this end so that the shape looks nice and complete. No. I want the branches to have some thickness so that when I color, I get some space in between. So all I'm gonna do is gonna make a few double lines along the branches that we've just made. Something like this. So to every branch, I'm going to add thickness and just draw along the branch that we already have to make it nice and thick. So once I have double lines, all the branches, this is how our tree, we'll look. We'll color, add the branches and the leaves to the street in the next video. So to join me there. 8. Coloring the tree: Hi, and welcome back. Now that we have sketched and outline our tree, let us color it. I'm using a brush in size two and some black acrylic paint. If you don't wish to use a acrylic color at this stage, you can always use a marker or a Sharpie. Now just by taking the right amount of paint on your brush, start filling up these branches. As I had mentioned in my earlier video, I wanted the branches to be of a certain thickness so that we could fill color in this. So now you see it becomes easier for us to fill paint as the branches are nice and thick. Also, if you remember, in the material section, I had asked you to use a paper of a higher GSM. If you are using watercolors, poster colors, or acrylic colors like I'm doing. A paper with a higher GSM will hold up well and not become soggy with excess usage of paint. In case you are using a paper which is black in color, or a canvas that is black in color. You can go with a white paint, acrylic paint, or any other color of your choice. So in this way, we will color the entire tree, to which we will later add branches. And the leaves are almost done with coloring the entire tree. And it's already looking beautiful against the white backdrop. Now, as in the reference picture, we are going to make the leaves and the branches. For that, I'm using a rotary pen in black. And as mentioned in the practice videos, I am going to start drawing the branches. If you are comfortable using a brush, you can use a brush to make these branches as well. So I'm going to make these tiny branches on either side of the branches here and cover up the entire tree. Just keep on making these alternate lines on either side of the branch. To which we will later be adding the circular shaped leaves. Now that we have drawn all the branches, Let's add those tiny circular leaves, like the one we practiced in this tree. For this, I'm going to teach you a simple yet effective way to get uniform size dots. I'm going to use the back of the brush and some actually cleaned, dip it and then make dots along these branches. Remember to use a rough paper to try out the branches and the dots. Before doing it on your final painting. Dilute the paint on the palette and make sure that it is neither to take nor too watery. And now, using the back of the brush, just start placing the dots along the tiny branches that we just drew. If you want your dots to be a little more thicker, you can use a brush with a broader base. Now, just dip the tip of the brush into the paint and place the dots on the branches. You will notice that the dots are all uniform in size. And it's much more faster this way. Using the same technique, I'm going to cover the entire tree. Now that our leaves are almost done, you will see it looks uniform and all the dots look evenly sized. And that's it. Our tree is now colored. We've added the branches and the leaves. I'll see you in the next video where we will be putting together all the elements that we have learned so far in this class. So don't forget to join me and I'll see you there. Bye bye. 9. Putting together all that we have learnt : Hi and welcome back. Now that our tree is ready, we can move to the most exciting part of the class where we get to implement all that we have learned so far. Let us start with the human figures right at the base of the tree. So I'm going to just randomly pick some figures from our reference pictures and place it under this tree in our final painting. Let us start with largely male figure. And let us show that his arms are above his head, holding a big basket. Let us color the figure. Our first wildly figure is ready. I have already made a bodily signal here that the seated under a tree reading a book. Now, let us make another wireless figure from the reference painting, the one that is holding the stick. So let's show his arms on shoulder level. And one big step across this. Next, let us show some animals. We can make a wildly goat or a wildly dog walking next to the human figure. And making a dog here. You can choose to mix and match combinations and poses from your reference sheet. Let us draw one more value figure from the reference sheet and place it right in the space here. Maybe we can show another barley meal walking down the tree holding a stick. Let us color the figure. We have filled this part of the tree. Now, moving on to the other side of the painting, let us draw a few props. Let's start with barley will apart. Resting under the tree. I'm going to make the bullock cart slightly slanting because it is resting on its beam. Will show the wheel. And next to the beam, let us show too wildly bolts seated. Generally, we would start the larvae will LET above the ground. But this one, I'm starting close to the ground because I want to show that they are seated. And I'm going to show the legs in a different way to denote that the larvae will exceed it. Let us make one more. Again. I'm making this wildly close to the other word lingual because I want to show what the Buddha seated next to the bullock cart. Folded legs and color the book. This is the perfect space to add a huge swing. This big, huge idyllic looking tree. So I'm going to add a big swing, and I'm going to add a wildly female figure seated on this week. Next, I'm going to show another wildly female figure standing next to the swing. On this side of the painting, we can add a few more wildly activities. I'm going to show a woman with a stack of firewood on her head that she's walking down the tree. You can show a small secret inner hand. I'm showing one more widely figure here with that acts on his shoulder. Moving on. Let us add some more wildly figures. On the left side of the painting. Maybe wildly. Woman walking with her child. Under this huge stream of light. You can color the barley figures. Now here on this side of the tree, let us make one last barley figure and fill this space up. I'm going to show a Varley male figure with a huge stick across his shoulders to which two big baskets are tight. So as I said before, there is no right or wrong. To create a wildly painting. You can mix and match as many poses, as many activities as you want in the painting and make it more attractive. Now, moving on to this side of the painting where we can see a few empty spaces. Let us add a wildly hot that we learned in our practice session. I'm going to start by making two parallel vertical lines. And I'm going to draw a long horizontal line as the base of the hut, a line on top on which I'll make an inverted V. So this is the basic, wildly hot. I'm going to draw a ladder on the outside of the hut and make some crisscross lines to show attached height. And now that the heart is ready, it does show some activity inside. I'm going to show a small firewood on which a vessel escaped. A wildly woman attending to it. Maybe we can show a spoon or a Latin in her hand. And color the wildly figure. I'm going to add a big basket kept on the roof of the hut and are widely, hat is ready. Now here, let us add some human figures sitting outside the hat. I'm going to show a Varley man seated across on the ground. Barley woman seated on the ground. Now, let us add some wildly domestic animals. You can show some small hens and chickens grazing around the house. And we have filled this part of the painting. Now. Let us add some wildly wild animals and birds on to the painting. Let's start by showing a wildcat climbing up the tree. So I'm going to make this wildly cat almost vertical tail and color the larvae wind cat. On this side of the branch of this tree, I'm going to show a peacock seated. For that. I'm going to start with the feather part. Then I'm going to make its body and then the neck, the face. So I'm drawing a face now. The crest. And some details on the body of the peacock and more details on the feathers. We can show another peacock seated on this side of the branch. And you can use both the styles of peacock that we learned during our practice session. So the neck, the body, and the feathers. Now the details on the body of the peacock and some details on the feathers. We can show the legs and the crest. Now on top of the painting, we can show some wildly Byrd's flight. So for this, let us start with the oval, the neck, the head, the tail, the wings. And color this. Some more details under the wings. And the tail. And our first bar, Leiber bird is ready. I'm going to draw a few more here and fill up the space with more birds. You can either draw the same style of birds or you can also draw birds in the style that I have taught in the practice video. Now, I'm going to add a small squiggle between the branches. For that. I'm going to make an elongated oval. To it. I'm going to draw a longish tail, neck and the head, and a small beak and two big ears. I'm showing some stripes, like the ones, skeletons half. And a nice long bushy tail that goes all the way to the top. And are wildly. Squirrel is ready. Now, let us draw a wildly son at the right top corner of our painting. You can draw a plane sun, or you can make such stripes inside it. And our vandalism is also ready. Last, what I'm going to do is I'm going to add some grass details at the base of the tree. So I'm just making big and small lines and adding some dots on top of them to show some grass and flowers. Similarly, on this side of the painting as well, I'm showing some grass details. By drawing begins small lines all along the ground and adding dots to show some flowers. And that's it. Our bodily tree of life painting is complete. We have included all the motifs that we learned so far in this class in this painting. How do you think it looks? Do join me in the next video to share your comments and thoughts. I'll see you there. Bye-bye. 10. ProjectFinal: Hi there. Congratulations on completing this class today. I hope you enjoyed learning and recreating the little nuances that go into making this beautiful art form.
