Loose and Repetitive Watercolor Patterns - A 10 Day Journey with Art Therapy

1. Hello & Welcome Back: It is no secret that people use art as a means to deal with stress, trauma, unhappiness, anxiety, or just to find greater purpose and meaning to their lives. Hello everyone. Welcome back to another Skillshare class with me. I'm on my sheet the five-year and at this and enact educate piece in India. If you do not In know much about me, you can follow me on Instagram under the handle, creating from the heart and find all my works out there. And clearly my words with watercolor, wash, acrylics, or making off some beautiful vintage frames. I have been practicing God on a daily basis in studios. And believe me, when I see this, it's the best time of my day when I sit with applying people, without anybody about the outcome and just letting the colors do its own magic. Various forms. A five bedroom one can use as an outpatient. That includes olivine, doodling, scribbling, finger painting, or sculpting or clean remotely. This ten-day artery PE class, we are going to be exploring a few of these techniques which include playing along with loose watercolors, forming some color theories, doodling, scribbling, and creating some loose watercolor patterns. Through the ten days, we will be walking on ten different watercolor patterns, walking in very low styles. But believe me, you will be much more at peace and relaxed because this class is not outcome-based. Rather, it is based on letting yourself explore freely on the paper. This class is more focused on relaxation and hence the class projects are very simple and small for anyone to join us after their busy day at work. I hope this class will give you immense happiness everyday for the coming ten B's and help you be relaxed and let them calmness deflect onto you. So without further ado, join me into this class and let's build better versions of ourselves together today and every day. 2. Overview of the Class: Before finalizing all the class projects for this class, I made sure to select the best ones out of all the practice patterns that I have created on my rough sketch book, the class is made in such a way that even if you are an absolute big no, you can easily follow along. Because before each class project, we will be having an overview for that class project wherein we will be discussing all the techniques and methods that will be used for creating that class project. They say for this class project where we will be using in the base colors for the second class project, the pattern that we will be using, how you can keep the grid of color compositions that you can use it and so forth. Same day, moving the head for each of the class project, I will be teaching you the technique before the class project, giving you all the alternative options that you can select on the color selections that you can go ahead with. Even if you are an absolute big node, you can join us freely and enjoy this art therapy session. Because this class is not at all result-based. Rather it is based on being C and letting yourself be three onto the paper and playing along with the loose consistency of watercolors. Let's move ahead to the next lesson and begin painting. 3. Materials Required: Before beginning with the first painting, let me quickly guide you through the material list that I will be using for this class. I will be using in this rough sketch book to teach you all the patterns and color compositions that you can use it. For the final painting I will be using in these E6 size people, these are soft, not much of the textured paper. Hence, best for loose watercolors, you would be needing the jar of clean water, one round brush and one flat brush for a few of the patterns. Apart from that, you would be needing watercolors since we've been replaying along with the loose and the flowing consistency of watercolors, you would need a basic set of watercolors and even obesity 12 sheets set is much more than enough for this class. You will be needing a mixing palette for mixing the paints in the liquidy consistency as we will be playing along with the floating consistency of watercolors. These are the limited supplies that you need for this class and you can grab them quickly and join me in the next lesson. 4. Day 1 - Playing with Primary Colors - Technique: Welcome to day one of this ten d mindful pattern class. Today we are going to paint in simple color patches and then adding simple flower dude linked onto these color patches. Now the uniqueness of these classes we're just going to be using in the three basic primary colors for creating those nine different colors for the patches. So the three colors that we will be working with is going to be a shade of yellow, red, and blue color. Now since we have two mixing the colors, I'm going to pick up all of these three colors freshly from the tube. So since we have going to mixing the colors, I'm going to remove these colors from the tube. So I'm using the shade of lemon yellow, permanent shape, and sitting in blue, you can go ahead with any yellow, red, and blue that is in your palate and pick up all the three colors separately on your palate. Now the reason of picking up the lemon yellow is so as to get a lemon green kind of appellate route you are when mixed in with blue. I want a very good bright green palette. That is the reason I picked up the lemon yellow fallow. Instead of a bright yellow color, I have picked up the bright permanent red color, this element, blue colors. So we will get in all the mixes right? Now next, let's begin to understand how we are going to mix in these colors to get in those nine color composition. So first let's begin swatching in all the three primary colors that we have picked up for this class project. The first one being the lemon yellow color. As I told you, I picked up this lemon yellow to get this bright green color out. Next, let's watch it. This beautiful permanent red color. All these three colors that I'm using for this class project from the brand Magellan mission. You can use any colors. Believe me, even a student good color is perfect for this class because we are just going to play along with the colors in a flowing consistency and creating beautiful patterns. The last color out your is the setting in blue color that I've used in. Now I'm just going to quickly begin mixing in these trees applause and show you how we are going to use it. I wouldn't be mixing the colors out on my palette. Rather, I will be showing you out your how we are going to mix it. In what proportion? You get nine different color values. The three primary colors that we have, that is the yellow, red, and blue are going to be pleased. And diagonally, as you can see, the yellow being at the top space, the red being in the center and the blue being in the last line corner out you're like this diagnosis. Then we will mix the yellow and red to get an orange, yellow and blue to get a green. When we are mixing the colors for the first line, the first line color is going to be more on the second line colors and the third line colors are going to be less. The second line, the red color is going to be more and the other color mixing is going to be less. Let me explain it to your out on paper. First being the base colors, that's the yellow, red, and blue, please, diagonally. Now in the first line, the yellow color is going to be more and red is going to be less out your, again, your yellow is going to be more and blue is going to be less. When we mix in the Palo is the proportion of yellow will be more when mixing the colors for the first-place. Same V out your red is going to be more, yellow is going to be less, and red is going to be more out. Your blue is going to be less. And in the third line, the blue proportions will be more. So again, as I told you, it's very simple as using in the base colors that we are going to paint the first exercise. The reason of preparing the colors on our own is so as to understand walking in with a limited color palette yet able to create such beautiful column mixes by just reading in the proportion of the colors. So that's the entire motive behind this post-class project to learn and play along with limited resources. Then lastly, we will be in simple black pen for doodling in some floral and leaves onto these patterns. I have these three different nip sizes, 0.10.30.5. You can go ahead with a simple black pen available on your desk as well. Let's begin painting in a class project and begin mixing in the colors for painting in the final class project. I will see you guys into the next lesson and begin painting the findings class project for the one. 5. Day 1 - Playing with Primary Colors - Class Project: Let's begin painting in the day one class project, I have this A6 sized paper which I'm just going to tape down on the back of one of my journeys. You can tape it down on a table cardboard or anywhere where you find it comfortable. The reason for taping it down in that low people does not move while painting, or it may create different blobs as well as it will help from paper, from buckling up by painting because we are playing along with the loose consistency of watercolor. So I have all the base layer three colors, That's the three base primary colors out on my palette. Now we are going to begin painting one-by-one, the nine blocks, and mixing the colors as well, one by 1. First I'm beginning with this lemon yellow color directly. And using this color in a good liquid consistency, I'm going to paint the first batch out here. According to my class project, we have followed in yellow at the top, red in the center, and blue at the bottom space. But you are free to change the color line. You can take the red at the top or blue at the top, yellow in the center, or at the bottom, it's completely your choice. Also, if you want, you can mixing the colors and much more different proportion and please these patches quite separately. Apart from this, I would recommend you mixing the colors rather than directly picking up the color if it's available in your palette. Because this can help you understand how using in two or three simple colors you can create so many color possibilities. The same. Just even with limited resources, our means in our daily life, we can still happily live with those limited resources. Now I'm going to mix in the yellow and the red color. I'm picking up more of the yellow color, unless off the red color, I'm going to create an, a bright orange color. Using this bright orange color. I'm going to place this block out too, or just about the red color. Again, you can see I'm playing along with a very liquid consistency of the paint. In-between, you will see somewhere little extra water which went dry. It will give you a very different effect. And what we have with unnormal watercolor consistencies. Now next we are going to mix in the yellow and the blue color. The yellow color is going to be more since I'm on the first night. And I'm just going to add a little danger of the blue color to get a good bright yellowish kind of a green loop. I've got this bright green color, as you can see. Believe me, all of these colors are readily on my palette, but mixing them forming your own colors. And you know, being able to create with limited resources is a different level happiness. Now for the next slide, I'm going to increase the proportion of the red color in my color mixes and create vibrant colors by altering the other two colors. First, I'm going to make sense that my permanent hair color with a little pinch off the yellow color and create a bright orange color. So the top color, if you, It's more on the yellow side, looking like a permanent yellow orange here. And this shape is going to be more on the red side. It's going to be like a 1 million kind of fur color. In the camera. You may feel that the red and this yellow, orange or yellow red mix is almost the same colors. But believe me, Andrea, they are quite different colors than what they are looking in the camera. Now next I'm going to mix in more of red analytics, touch of blue and create a red violet kind of a tone. This exercise will actually even help you. If you are just having into LBC colors, you can mix your own colors. So you can see this red violet color is majorly dead in all the professional pallets or in those 36 sets are 48 colors set. So if you are walking with a twelv colors that you can also create your color by just altering the proportion. And that's the entire thing about watercolors. Now in the last slide, Let's begin mixing in more of blue and less of the two colors. Mixing in this city, in Hindu and the lemon yellow color. You can see the Defense out here by just reading in the proportions. That is the reason I mix them on the same part of the palette. I've got a beautiful emerald green kind of a color. You can see how simply you can even create your emerald green. And when you will be the yellow and the blue colors as Ben say, you're using in the lemon yellow color, but see if you use a different tone of yellow and a different tone of blue, you will further get more different tone variations of the green color. And you can build in ten to 20 of the different shades of green just by these two base colors. Now next I have mixed it more of blue, unless after red color. And I've got a good Violet kind of vocal it out here. And I'm going to swatch this color onto the center space in the bottom line, which is blank. Now, we are ready with an I in swatches coming to the placement of these swatches and the shapes you can see I have created in very rough shapes. The gaps in-between are also not equal. The shapes are also not of the same size or of the same placement. If you'll see the bottom most green shape, it's quite small as compared to the other ones. So that is what I want you to understand, that you just have to let yourself free this paint simple nine blocks onto your paper. Now let's wait for this to dry and begin adding in the doodling part. Now, all of my nine patches are completely dried and I'm going to begin adding in the simple doodling. So I'm going to use a 0.3 pen. You can use a 0.5 normal, regular pen that is available at your desk. Now make sure your colors are completely dried otherwise the black ink will begin to spread it. Now you will see wherever there was extra water in the paint on the red color or the blue color, you have a different drying pattern out there, which adds to the beauty of these loose watercolor patterns that we are painting. Now onto all of these I'm going to add in very random flower and leaf to link. Now on the yellow color, I'm going to add simple sunflower. Again, your flowers can be quite different than mine. You can go ahead with different shapes of flowers if you do not want to add in the same flowers that I'm adding in. Or you can add in all different kind of leaves onto all the nine patches. If you want, you can add nine different flowers as well. Or if you want, you can even create your own name onto these patches instead of adding in these flower dude links. As I told you in the beginning, this class is not an outcome-based plus you do not have to worry about the final result. It can be completely different than what my result looks like or any other results will look like. You can go ahead with your own doodling Patton, or what is running in your mind. Say if you want to add in simple elements from your kitchen onto this, you can add in different fruits, vegetable dude links. If you want, you can add indifferent stage study material, dude links or your art supply dude links. You can even go ahead and add different shapes of clouds or create different trees as well. As I gave you so many options, it's completely onto you. What do you want to go ahead with on these tiny patches? Go ahead with the dueling that relaxes your mind and give you that piece while doodling all of those onto these patches. Now on the green color out here, I'm going to add in simple leaf details. Now to the sunflower, you can see I gave a little detail view by adding in little pen details, giving in those fine lines on the petals and creating the center but space as well. Again, as I repeat, you can go ahead with very different placements. You need not follow the exact same placement as mine. It's all about just giving him these 15 minutes of the DA creating in these simple patterns. And believe me, they look quite pretty on the wall and perfect for your abstract walls that you wish to play it with these lovely watercolor patterns. Now out your, I'm going to create. Is popping from behind of this so as to give this flower a little side view. From behind you can see those small patterns that I'm adding in, which are actually behind of these front petals. You can see how simple doodling with a pen and the flowers look so beautiful with just simple patterns as well. Now on this red one, I'm just going to add in some simple puppy details. So again, you can add in a rose or any other flower that you wish to add it. I would highly recommend you to do this lesson by listening some wall for the soothing music that comes your mind. Because that will help you in further relaxing your mind and building that NOPs, letting yourself completely free, creating in these beautiful patterns where you do not have to worry about the outcome. If you notice my patterns as well to some of the flowers I given a little line details as Ben, some of them, I leave them free completely just with those simple outlines. Again, it depends on do you how do you tell you wish to go ahead with your doodling part? I'm sure many of you may be great artist, but believe me sometimes paintings, such simple things given a different level of joy. The time when I was curating all of these Class Projects and practicing myself, that was the most of these fulltime that I hadn't because it was so much free and relaxing, I didn't have to worry about the outcome. And every outcome seemed more beautiful to me despite being just a small practice session. Again, I would repeat, go in very freely, let your mind free and just create simple patterns using in your basic supplies. And let yourself free through these ten days while creating each of these patterns. Now on this last blue patch out your, I'm going to add in a bunch of smaller flowers out, you're closer together, some of them from behind of this bigger flower. So again, you can just go ahead, change a flower. I didn't a very small, simple flower. That's completely your choice. Believe me, even if you are a big nose, I'm sure you could have painted this along with us very easily. And you didn't even have to body about the outcome because as I told you, your outcome would be very different than what mine is. And your outcome would be way more prettier than what mine outcome looks like. Every outcome is beautiful in its own way and has its own story to tell it. Let's remove the masking tape and see this final painting for day one. It's such a simple, easy pattern, but such a relaxing and calming one. I hope you painted this class reject creating in your own colors using in the tree-based primary colors, instead of using the colors directly from your palette. I hope you do build out your hat onto dispatches and created whatever was running in your mind. I hope you guys enjoyed the day. One of this ten-day mindful, loose watercolor patterns. I will see you guys tomorrow into the day to class project. Thank you so much for joining me into this simple farm, easy class of creating mindful, loose watercolor patterns and letting yourself lose unfree. 6. Day 2 - Colors of Love - Technique: Hello everyone. Welcome back to day two of this ten days of ART therapy with loose watercolor patterns. Today we are going to go ahead with this rather lose deputy this pattern. This time, we are going to be using a flat brush for creating in this pattern. So I have this half inch flat brush. You can go ahead with any medium-size for size six brush. Let's begin understanding the movement and creation of this appetitive pattern to get that, if, you know, different look to the same rectangle that we keep painting is going to be showing you the different color combinations that you can use in Aspen. In the rough sketch that I have tried, you can see I've gone ahead with different shades of pink and a little touch of orange. For this one out, you're going to use the orange and the blue of my palette. So first beginning with the audience. Now for the false true, you have to begin in diagonally. From the top line of this to you. Another rectangle moving downwards. You can see now the next one will go from the bottom area or edge. First, you will add the diagonal stroke again from your, from the bottom edge you can see again from the top it will be from the top edge, then moving diagonally towards the right side, again from the bottom space. So all the bottom ones that is from left to right will be from the bottom of the central rectangle and the top ones will be from the top space of the diagnosis that you are adding in. Now we'll begin adding in the second line. For the second line, I haven't shifted to another color, so I've been shifted to this violet color mix out. You're on my palette now. Audience and violet, as you know, are two complimentary colors out there which do not go well with each other when blended, but when used in patterns like these, they make a good color combination. The final class project, we are going to go ahead with the combination of pink colors you can use in Scarlett, Carmine, windrows of vermilion, or any other family of pink and red. And, you know, given a mix and match of the color combinations. Now I have built in the second line you are as well. So you can see how I built in the second line. To let you lose, what you have to do is just simply keep adding in simple rectangle boxes Chris, close to each other pitting in this pattern. Do not worry if you're unable to understand the logic of this pattern or the movement of these plates. If you practice two to three times, you will easily be able to understand from where you have to begin the second block for the pattern. So now you can see the movement crisscross when it is added from left to right. The next one that is from top to bottom begins from the top of the diagram. When you are adding from left to right, again, for the next block, it will begin from the bottom space of the top-to-bottom diagnosed that you are adding in. This is how you are just going to build in your base Leo crisscross pattern. Now after this you can add in little doodling walk, very simple, basic dueling using in the golden silver a pen. For this class project I'm going to be using in my golden pen. Now, do not worry if you do not have a golden pen in case by any chance, if you have metallic watercolors, you can use that using a fine tip brush and add in the details. Or you can also use a black pen if you do not have all metallic watercolor or a golden pen. In these blocks, we're going to add in very simple dawdling, just some spirals. I'm standing straight line, some different shaped as some different angles. Very simple doodling into this and some rectangles, borders. Very simple as I told you. In these, if you want, you can go ahead with the color combination of the primary colors. You can begin with the yellow strokes at the top, moving downward, shifting to the mix of the yellow, red, then do simple red color, then to red and blue mix and then the blue column mix. So that is again another color combination that you can use it. For my final class project I'm going to be using in the differentiates of red and pink on my palette as I have done in the practice exercise, your, let me show you my palette and all the red and the pinks available. So you can see the second line that is filled in with the different tones of red and the pink colors out here. I'm going to use it. The other two audiences as well. These five to six colors, I'm just going to mix and blend them very loosely with each other and given different color combination, big, timeless, one-by-one. Let me give you one more practice. Look with the colors that I'm going to be using. I'm going to use these shade of orange God mine quin rose when the lag or carmine ruby, vermilion Scarlett, Whichever is available in your palette, it can go by any name in your palette and you can use that. So first you can see I began with the shade almost equal to the red color. Now since this paper is a little draft green paper on which I'm showing you. It becomes a little difficult to spread the colors if it's not perfectly in the liquid state. Now, next out you are in the second line. I shifted to the orange color and just beginning to add the strokes crisscross as we learned. Now, perfect the monotony out your, I'm simply just adding in little Red Touch as Ben along with the orange color. This is how you can add Dr. Finn color combination. Now we are going to be playing along with the very loose consistency of watercolors. So you will have different patches once all of these dry on our actual paper. Plus you will have the darker and the lighter tones visible on one paper itself. Now in-between, if you feel any spaces is extra, you can add some simple ten lines and fill up the spaces as well. Do not worry again, I will repeat. You need not follow the exact same layout for the pattern. You can mess up at places and still go ahead and freely and keep adding in the book squeeze close to each other and form the pattern. You are. If you notice in the chord line I messed up the pattern. Still, I am continuing with the pattern and still it is giving it a decent enough loop. So that is the entire motive of not stopping, not worrying about the outcome, just letting yourself free and flow along with the fellows, just painting along easily. So now you already, you can see the different color combinations that we use to be going to be using in the seminar color combination for our final class project. Let's begin painting in our final class project in the next lesson for D2. I hope you guys will enjoy this class as well. And let you send three and let the fellows flow and create those beautiful patches on their own. 7. Day 2 - Colors of Love - Class Project: Let's begin with our class project for dy dt. So as I told you, I'm going to be using in the shades of orange and the red colors. I will first quickly tape down my paper after them moving in the colors. So I'm removing the colors on my palette so that it's easier for me to dilute them with water a lot and play along with the loose consistency of the colors. So the first color that I've picked up is the orange color and added a lot of photo. The next color I'm picking up the shade of carmine out here. And after that, I will pick up one more color and I will play with these three colors. And if need be, I will pick the other colors as well to the Carmine color as well. You can see are added in a lot of water out here. Now I'm picking up a bright red colors. I'm picking up the ruby color from my palate. You can go ahead with the permanent red color, red color, or whichever bright red is available in your palette. Or again, if you're going ahead with a different color combination, then that's absolutely your choice. I'm picking up the fourth color, That's the windows color and do this as well. You can see I'm adding in a lot of water to play along with the loose consistency of the colors. Now last year I'm picking up a little of this Queenie color, which is A2. And so it's kind of a rose color, a dark pink rose color that is there to this also, I'm going to add in water and keep it in a good liquidy consistency so that you can see I'm ready with all the feeds that I will be using it. And to all of them, you can see I've added a lot of water so as to keep them in the loose, liquidy flowing consistency. Now I will quickly take down my paper at the top and the bottom side so that the paper doesn't move while adding in the patent. Otherwise, if the paper will keep moving, it will be very difficult to control the movement of the brush because it's the paper moving here and there. Now, picking up the flat brush, I'm using the half-inch size flat brush. I'm going to begin with this color combinations. Now when I begin painting, you will see when I add the color, there will be some watery consistency of colors in some of the patches, which will dry very unevenly giving indifferent blobs as well, which will look more beautiful. Even if you see at the top space in the practice exercise paper, there are some different patches because of these blobs of watercolors that is there. And that adds to the beauty of these patterns. That is why it is loose patterns that we are playing along with. I'm beginning with the sheet of carmine now till now, you can go ahead it randomly, any colors, troops, or any color combination that you are following along. So I will not keep repeating the shades of the polos I'm going to be using in these five colors only vary randomly. I will be picking up these colors one-by-one. I'm just playing along very loose leaf. Now. I add places. I'm picking up the darker tones of the color and add the bottom space while it is still wet or at any space in the block, you can add a little darker patches if you wish to give him this color combination. I will be playing along with the DACA consistencies as well like this, giving in some darker tones very randomly. This pattern will help you mindfully keep pleasing these blocks in such a way that at the end you have that zigzag pattern coming into life. So it is again, please playing along loosely placing in these blocks, just creating in our beautiful design out of simple rectangle boxes. Now in-between you can see I've shifted to the orange color, giving the color grade to the pink and the red tones. Now again in-between while the blocks are still wet, I pick up the darker tones and just using the tip I drop little darker tone patches. And believe me, these patches dry very unevenly but give a very beautiful view to your painting. Do not worry if you are on the left side, you'll see that it's still space which I will be filling up with the blocks as well. Now at any point, if these blocks get connected as bare, do not. It's perfectly okay. Let the colors bleed into each other and create that connecting patch look as well in-between it's perfectly okay for the pattern as well. Now coming to this left edge, you're going to begin, begin filling in the spaces and make sure that they go well with this exact pattern. Now chair, now coming to the color combinations of this class project, as I told you in the practice exercise, you can even use the primary colors. Move from red to yellow, yellow to red and then two, blue. Your we're using in the shades of pink and oriented. You can even use the shades of green and orange or green and yellow. You can even add in this pattern using the shades of blue and violet in that you can pick up all the different blues, different violates, play along with the color consensus and create this pattern. Or you can even go ahead or without tool or, you know, conflicting colors like orange and violet as we saw in the practice exercise. Or you can even create this pattern of blue and the red color combination that will give a pretty view again. The color combination again, is completely your choice and you have the entire freedom in choosing the color combination that suits and goals with your mind, state. B3, to choose the color combination that you feel will be the best for this pattern. Now again, you are, you will see I'm adding the darker patches very roughly and randomly. Other reason why I selected the red color more is because, you know, red and gold and make a pretty color combination. And somehow it depicts a lot of love to me. That is the reason iPad of going ahead with the color combination of all, you're not red, pink, and golden for this one. As I told you in the beginning, this class is more about reflecting what is running in your mind onto the paper. Again, you know your color combination may vary depending on the moon or the state that you bought into. If you notice in the second last line, I messed up the pattern and Latin, but still I managed to add the blocks and keep the pattern going and fill the space. So that is the beauty of these loose patterns that you have to let yourself three, let the colors flow, create its own magic and create its own beauty. Believe me, these small pieces of people with these loose patterns are great for framing and putting onto your abstract walls or for using them as God patterns, or even creating prints with these onto clot or, you know, very abstract designs for different surfaces. Now ready roughly, I'm adding in some darker patches. You can even add the darker patches once your first layer is dried completely. So that will again give you another different patchy kind of a loop. So if you notice, I added a few of the patches of the darker color at the top species after the patches were dried it, that gives it another different view to it. So again, it's all about letting yourself three and slow with these strokes comely and loosely. That is it I'm adding in and filling the entire page with these blocks of the love colors out here. Now we'll wait for this to dry completely and then I will be using in the golden pen for adding in some doodling details onto this. Now if you have gone ahead with a different color combination, you can even use a silver pen or a black pen, or an empty color of pen, whichever color you wish to or any other California pain for that matter. Let's wait for this to dry first. Now my pattern is completely dried and I will begin adding in little doodling. Now before beginning, can you see the beauty of the dry patches? How differently every patch has dried and every pad has a different story with different color combination, defend unfinished edges. That's the beauty about the loose watercolor patterns. Now I am using the golden color pen and just very randomly adding very simple doodling. I also realized while painting in these deputy additive patterns, it helps in building the muscle memory and makes your brain walk a little more. Or because it has to, you know, of fixed into that pattern and meet the pattern goal enough if that helps in building and just helping you or given little more focus as well. Now, I tried adding little detail with the silver color pen as well, but they didn't turn out that I preferred going ahead with the golden pen. Only. You can see I'm going ahead with very random dude link somewhere, some spider block, some ways I'm Chris class patterns. Some will just some loose crisscross lines closer together somewhere. If you don't lines towards with each other and somebody just different angles of the L or creating in the blocks. So again, with the dude link path, you have the entire freedom. You can go ahead with whatever dude link you wish to. Also, I would like to mention it's not compulsory to go ahead with doodling onto each of the blocks you can leave off. The blocks are very randomly empty, or you can add the link to each of the blocks. That's again completely your choice. I have left a few of the blocks empty as well. Now I know the golden column may not be visible to you for now, but I will give you a closer view. At the end, you will be able to see all the golden details that we have added onto these beautiful red and pink patches. Now let's remove the masking tape. We are ready with our class project for D2 as well. Another simple loose pattern to just build a muscle memory and to, you know, go in the flow with the pattern. Now, you can see with the closer view, the golden lines that are visible, believe instill the camera doesn't do justice to the golden line that is visible to the naked eye. But I hope you guys enjoyed painting this beautiful simple pattern with me using in the simple rectangle sheep. Have you ever caught that even a small shape and create such a beautiful pattern with the different color combinations that you can use it. I hope you enjoyed this pattern today. I will see you guys into the D3 tomorrow where we will be painting loose watercolor circles and going ahead with some simple doodling again. So see you guys tomorrow. 8. Day 3 - Colors of Nature - Technique: Hello everyone. Welcome back to day three of this ten days of octets. Today we are going to be playing alone with some circular patterns and then adding in simple doodling using in the black pen. Let me die deal with the technique that we are going to be using in today for creating in a similar pattern. This time I'm going to be using in the color combination of yellow and blue, which will automatically be forming in the green colors in between. So I have my rough sketch pad ready out here, and I have the yellow and the green and the blue colors already on my palette. Now I'm going to show you by using in a little bit of green as well. And without using an a green also, you can simply just mixing the blue and the yellow together while adding in the surface, which will automatically formed the green tones in the circus. First, I'll begin with the yellow color. Now in this pattern has barely are going to play along with the liquidy consistency of watercolors. You just have to begin adding new symbol so it goes closer to each other. Wet on wet as well. Some of them you can add in wet on dry. Now this circle is better as you can see. And around this I'm going to begin adding in the another circle using in the blue color, wet on wet as well. So automatically when the blue and the yellow will react together, it will form green color in-between and cause this Persians as built. Now, you will see that I'm adding in another circle, just about the yellow circle. Little of it is crossing the yellow circle and desktop it is below the yellow circle, as you can see. Now, the blue as you see, seeps into the yellow because the yellow is still wet. So that is what we are going to be playing today with. That is letting the colors flow and bleed into each other loose leaf. Now, do this, we can even create little texture using in water droplets. So you can simply use in water or color droplets and drop while these spaces are still wet and create rooms. In the final class project we will be creating in the blooms as well, using in the water droplets as I told you. Now, you are, you can see I've used in a little bit of green to create this third token. In these, if you do not want to use a green, you can simply just keep using indifferent tones of blue as well. So now you can see I've picked up or turquoise blue kind of Ocala. First one was an ultramarine blue kind of a color, the second was a green patch. Accordingly, You can even keep playing with different tones of blue or just using simple one blue color. If you're playing along with one blue and one yellow, most sleep rest. It depends while painting how mood goes in. Now also the other technique that we are going to be using in this year, you can see I've added a few circles separately. Now, while this dries in, after that, we will add some circles on top of this. So that way you will get in little LEO tokens having in some transparent to look as well and can be seen perfectly overlaid onto each other. Now, then let me show you the blooming. So I've just picked up a brush with little bit of water on the tip. And using the tip, I'm just going to drop the water while the circles are still wet and you can see the balloons that these create it. But the only technique and important thing to remember is you need to drop this water droplets while you are so-called or the paint layer is still wet, only then you would get this blooming effect. And automatically you will get a lot of texture onto these circles that we're adding in. Also, you can create some lighter patches at places by lifting up the colors as well. So this is how we are going to be playing along with different sizes of circles closer to each other, onto each other some after drying. Then I didn't very simple doodling onto this. Now when it comes to layering of the circle. So these bottom two circles have died in. I'm going to pick up another color of blue, which is different from the base layer color. And I will add a circle on top of this. So in such case, you will see that the colors do not bleed into each other. Rather, you have transparent circle or the transparent layering method out you're wearing the basis circle is also visible clearly. And even the top layer software becomes visible. And you can add in the circles at different places. Now in this technique, I have used in only one circle with the yellow color. You can definitely add in more circles with a yellow color. So now we are going to use in three techniques. That is one of Wherein be let the colors bleed into each other. One day we will be adding in certain solvents after letting the business circles dry in. And told me we'll be using in the water droplets for creating blooms and textures. After all, that drives in we will be using in these technical pens and adding in very simple doodling. Again, it's going to be very simple doodling. That is it for this class project. I will see you guys in the next lesson where we are in creating in this free circle pattern using in the nature of color palette. That is the sheets of see, the brass and the lovely sunset color. So let's begin painting in today's class project. I will see you guys in the next lesson and paint the class project along together. 9. Day 3 - Colors of Nature - Class Project: Let's begin with our class project for D3. Now, I have my paper taped down at the top and bottom sides so that the paper doesn't move. Now I'm going to be using in the colors out from the palette out here. Now you can use in any shade of yellow and any shade of blue as per your choice. But just make sure to use these colors in a very liquidy fluid consistency. The reason for that beam, it will be in the liquidy fluid consistency. And when you play along with them wet on wet or for creating in the blooms that will give you effect and also help you in creating texture. First one I have added in a circle with the yellow color out here. I've added a good enough big size yellow circle. Now I'm just going to add in few more of the yellow circles while my brush has the yellow color picked up. I've just added one more circle out with the yellow color out here. Now I'm going to shift into the blue color. I'm just using the blue color that's already on my palette and mixing in a little bit of the turquoise blue along with it. You can go ahead with any shade of blue. You are free to use your own color palette, whichever you feel is perfect for this class project. Now again, you can see wherever I seen that there is less of water, I'm dipping my brush in water and just letting the colors flow with water. Now, make sure we're about one more thing into any of these circles. If you wish to add in the blooms, you need to add while the circle is still wet. I haven't added any blooms on the yellow circle as you can see. But if you wish to RD, you are free to add in the blooms in the yellow circles as well. But for that you need to add the blooming effect while the yellow color is still wet. Now ready randomly, you can see I'm feeding in the circus with this color of blue first. Now at the bottom your UC, the yellow color circle has tried in. Hence the colors are not bleeding, March into each other out. You're now into these blue circles. I'm going to begin creating in the bloom. So for that I'm going to use the water now. Just dip my brush in water and using the, if I'm just dropping in some water droplets, you can see how beautifully the blooms get created. By mistake me, I dropped the water bloom on the yellow color and I quickly dab it so that the turquoise blue color does not settle in. Now, can you all see under dispersion happening because of the water droplets drop down these wet paints. This will further creating beautiful textures on your paper. Now next I have picked up the bright blue color, and I'm just going to begin adding in a few circles with this bright blue color. Now, my blue-collar so-called status with the dope boys do are still wet. And I'm going in because I want these circles to bleed into each other. Make sure repeating it again along with the fluid inconsistency of the beans and let the colors flow easily into each other. Now again, you're as value need not follow the same color palette as mine. I am following in the colors of knee-jerk, that's the sunset grass. And see, you can simply go ahead with any other color combination. Say if you wish to go ahead and just with different colors of blue or this imbalance of pink order, if you distribute to go ahead with the orange and yellow color, or if you wish to go ahead with the shades of brown color combination in this pattern looks very beautiful. Another tip that you can create this pattern on a bookmark size paper, indeed done. Or you can use that bookmark as a bookmark if you are a book level. So it looks perfect as an abstract pattern for your bookmarks as well. These patterns can be created on different sizes of people, can be used for different purposes. Now again, I've shifted into the turquoise blue color and I'm beginning to add-in for the transparent so for loop. So all the base neon, yellow and previously autopoiesis blue circles were completely dried. Now you can see these circles are employee or visible and have the perfect sharp edges and not look blended or bleeding into the previous layers. Now if you notice, I can see a lot of blue happening in, so I'm just going to pick up a little more of the yellow and begin adding it. I'm not using the green color directly, but you can see wherever the blue is overlaying the yellow, even if it is dried, it's automatically forming in a green color. That is the reason I'm not using the green color separately. But if you are someone who wants to add enough, use circles with the green color separately. Again, as I told you, you are free to use your own creativity and your own color palette. This class exercise is absolute fun painting and loose circles wherever you want of different sizes using different colors. Plus you do not have to worry about the colors bleeding into each other because that's the beauty of this class project that the bleed streaming into each other. I'm just adding smallest circles with the yellow palette as you can see, but since they are mixing in with the blue, they are forming a beautiful green shade, a lightly in kind of a sheet which is complementing the blue and the yellow both perfectly. Also one thing that you can even add in Bloom's to these also calls that you're adding in now you are completely free again, I repeat whichever. So can you wish to add in mode of the blooms effect? You can just dip your brush in water and drop water using the tip of your brush. Now I'm just going to drop a little model of the blooms effect very randomly onto these vesicles that have added recently on this, this time, I'm going to go ahead with very simple nature kind of doodling. So I'm going to go in with simple spiders, leaves, simple circular patches. Because since the background is all the circular motions and the circular patterns, I'm going to keep little of the doodling part also in the circular aspect as far as possible. Adding a little bit of leaf effect, you're in debt to break the monotony of the pattern. Let's wait for this to dry completely and then begin adding in the doodling part, make sure you are blooms also dry completely otherwise the ink will begin to spread off the pen. Let's wait for it to dry. Is completely dried out here. And now I'm going to begin adding in the dude link. But before doing that for a minute, let's adopt the beauty of these blooms that are created. Alright, so let's begin now. I'm first using in the 0.3 pen, and I'm just going to begin adding in very simple doodling, as I told you, we are going to go ahead with simple doodling this time as well. So first I will just begin with a simple round spiral out. You're in the previous class project, if you remember, we added the spider in the rectangle shape because we were playing with the rectangle pattern. This time since we are playing along with the circle pattern, you will notice might do links also in little circular ships. Some simple lines out here onto the socket. Do not worry. Your pattern can even go on to the white part, that is, you're doodling part and be onto the whitespaces of the paper as well. That will build the pattern more beautifully. Now I'm going to use this thick black brush pen and begin adding in some darker spots, creating in a circle. Using simple lines, suggest using in the tip I'm going to drop simple sidelines our tour and create them into a circular pattern. Now if you do not have such a thick pen, you can simply use in your normal sketch pen or a brush pen, or use your normal pen and gifts such, you know, vault circles out there, giving them the dots. Or you can even use in your round brush and the black color and give this detailing. Now, I've shifted to a 0.1 pen and just going to add in a few of the leaf pattern in-between as I told you to break the monotony of the circular pattern. You can also go ahead but different dawdling that runs in your mind and feel free to add whatever pattern you wish to. These patterns make beautiful covers for your thank-you cards, for your greeting cards, or since it's east. So you can even use these as Easter thoughts and send it to your friends and families along with your Easter gifts. So all of these patterns are pretty beautiful and you can use them for different purposes. Like I told you, kind of cue cards, postcards, bookmarks, or simple cover for gift trappers as well. Now just some random doodling. You can see simple or the brick pattern that I'm adding in now at the top space out your, I'm just going to add a little model using in this 0.3 pen. So you will notice I'm just adding in very random circle crisscross to each other, making them look like a nested circle out there together. That is it. We are ready with our class project for D3 as well. Let's remove the masking tape and CFI in the painting, I will just add a little detail with the golden color before removing the masking tape. If you want to, these darker patches in the center, you can give them little golden lines, giving in the golden effect. Again, this is an optional thing. I hope you guys enjoyed painting this beautiful, easy circular pattern and let yourself three, adding in the DDL is completely your choice and how you wish to add in and make it look more beautiful and let yourself free. These ten days are all about letting yourself free, letting the colors flow into each other freely. You're painting for D3. I'm absolutely in love with how the texture is created using the blues and the unevenness of the texture on different Circus. Thank you so much for joining me into this class. I will see you guys tomorrow into the D4 class project and paint along another beautiful yet easy pattern. See you guys tomorrow into the default class project. Thank you so much once again for joining me. 10. Day 4 - Playing with Greens - Technique: Hello everyone, Welcome back to the fourth. Today we are going to be painting another simple repetitive pattern. This is similar to the D2 strokes that we had added, but on D2L, if you remember, we had added it in a crisscross pattern, creating a pattern along with the repetitive strokes. This time as well, we are going to be using in the repetitive strokes, but creating a very different paradigm looking pattern. Let's begin with the technique and the color sheets that we will be using for this class project. For this class project, I'm going to be showing you two different strokes that you can use. One is going to be the simple rectangles took and the other stroke will be the leaves too. We will be doing the class project for this class when both the patterns and creating two different class project. Let's begin with the basic strokes first. This time for the class project, I'm going to use these shades of green that are on my palette. Now you can go ahead with what they were shades of green out onto your palette. Light green, dark green, medium tone greens. Or you can even add a little yellow to create different tones of green and blue and brands to darken the tones of green if you do not have many greens in your palette. For the first pattern, I'm going to use this 1 fourth inch flat brush. Now if you do not have this 1 fourth and flat brush, you can use any smallest size flat brush. I'm false beginning with this May green color. This is basically a light green color. As you can see. You can pick up the light green color, yellow, green color. They compare different names in different sets with a flat brush. I'm just adding in very simple rectangle strokes crisscross to each other. It basically you just have to create simple parallel strokes and create an entire parity line. Let me show you the strokes that we were using for the second class project was when we started the stroke from a little about the ending point. But for this class project, you can see we are beginning the next stroke that is on the right side, just closer to the left side stroke. That is exactly a replica of the left side stroke. So basically, you can imagine it as a imaginary line in-between and adding leaves on both sides of this branch. That is how this pattern is curated. Now in this pattern, you can either use this stroke using an a flat brush or the second method is using a round brush and adding leaves instead of simple rectangles. Let me add some leaves as well and show you now again, we are going to play along with different tones and values of green in the final class project. For the leaf pattern as well, we're going to go ahead with the same thing. Tick off out of the leaves will be bought coming together in the center point. Or you can add in the thinner parts of the leaf coming in together. In the class project we will be using in both the T naught and the takeoff coming together in one line and then the other lane. This is how the fourth pattern is curated using in the shades of green, using one flat brush and one round brush. Now this size of paper that we're using is A6 sized paper. So in that paper we will try to fit in approximately 2.5 branches. If you are using some bigger size paper, you can fit in approximately TreeSet of the branches that is left and right board. Alright, so that is about how the pattern will be curated. Now going again to the color sheets I'm using in the green color you can use in any different color combinations. Or you can even use the shades off just the yellow reds, or you can use in blue and greens bought. So again, the color combination that color choices is completely your choice as you need not worry at all about how the colors will be mixing with each other or how they will be looking in. That is it about the techniques and the color combinations? Let's begin painting the class project in the next lesson. And we will be painting the class project in both the patterns. 11. Day 4 - Playing with Greens - Class Project: Let's begin with our class project. Finally, I'm first going to begin with the leaf pattern. I have my round brush and my people is steep down already. Along with that, I also have the green color out on my palette. That's the light green color that I'm using enforce. First I'm going to create pattern using in the leaf shape onto this as bent, we're going to be adding in simple doodling effect onto one of the buttons. We will be adding doodling effect with the golden color. And on one path we will be adding it with the black pen. Now you can see adding in the leaves on both the sides with one angle is a little difficult job and you can already see or meet shifting into different tones as well. What I will do is I am going to quickly add in all the right side leaves first because that is easier for me in this angle. And then I will tend to make the butt and add all the left side leaves so that it becomes easier with the pointed tip. Certain, right, nice. You see the pointed tip goes at the top. So I have to tell them my hand, which becomes a little difficult and the strokes do not go properly. As you can see, I'm going to tell the board like this, that is why I always recommend to tape down your paper on moveable surfaces. And then now you see the angle sets in perfect and the strokes going easily, smoothly as well. Alright, so I'm going to add the left side strokes first quickly since I have my paper density. Now you can see I am shifting alternatively between different shades of green color. I'm also mixing in different greens together and adding them in one leaf as well. So again, I would repeat going ahead with the pallet choice of your own wish or depending on your palate, it's completely your choice. You can add leaves with all different colors as well and make it a multi-color pattern along with it. Again, adding in these repetitive patterns with simple leaf effect, you will see a beautiful pattern coming into or life. Now these patterns can again be used for making in cushion covers, bedsheets, coatings. And these patterns make pretty beautiful abstract look into your living spaces as well. These patterns can be used for surface designing if you practice a lot into pattern designing again. Now these are very loose and very basic patterns that we're creating with practice. You can even given more depth. Again, I've tilted my paper and now I'm beginning to add all of the leaves on the right side. Now you can see both the left and the right side needs meet at the center point together, there is a small white gap in between, but they are exactly at the same meeting point. So that is the logic about this pattern that they should be at 1 out together. Now when we begin adding in the second row of these leaves, I will be going ahead with a little different stroke and I will show you the difference now that will again automatically added to a little difference and beauty of a pattern. Now if you notice me, when I am laying my brush on my color palette, I'm shifting in-between all the five to six green pants that are on my palette and not picking up just one single V plus a few. Notice I'm not cleaning my brush after every green. I'm letting the previous lean as Belle-V there. Alright, so we are done with the false, true. Now let's begin with the second row. It will be for the second row, I'm going to keep the pointed side up and take the thicker side of the leaf towards the center point. Same way for the right side as well. I'm going to keep the pointed side up and take the thicker side at the bottom space. Now seen, what I'll do is I'm going to force this time adding all of the left side leaves so that it's easier because the pointed tip isn't that angle and my hands moving perfectly. And then I will tilt my paper and add all the right side leaves. Now if you'll see just by making a small difference, the pattern begins to look more detail and gets a little different variety, then the simple, basic leaf that you could have added in. Now if you are someone who wants to add in the leaves, same as you added in the first row. You can even go ahead with that. There is no rule that you need to go ahead with the same lethally out as mine. You can simply change the leaf payout in Venice, the photo coming days, we're going to have one more class project with the leaf pattern, wherein we will be painting branches of leaf in very loose manner, adding in a different code as well. Do it. Again the order, if you notice I'm shifting an alternating between grids and randomly cleaning my brush wherever I feel that I do not want the previous colors to be dead. Now as I told you, if you want, you can even use a little yellows in your leaves because some of the leaves are even yellowing color. Actually, leaves are not only gain in color, leaves are in almost every color that you can find. In autumn, they are in the shades of yellow, red, orange. During springtime they are in the shades of green. And when they are atoning to be dried completely, they are in shades of brown as well. So that is the reason you are free to use in your own color palette. Now for the third row here, I'm first going to go ahead with the false TO kind of leaves that we added in that is the genocide in so far I didn't mean all the leaves of the left side as tilt my paper again so that again, it's easier for me to add in these leaves quickly. I'm just adding in the leaves quickly as you can see, I'm keeping the thicker side inside and the thinner side out, sorry, the thicker side outside and the inside of the leaf and say, I'm going to quickly add in the leaves now like this, keeping the pinpointed side of the leaf inside. Now again, depending on the pattern that you are following, you can change this. Adding simple ones. It leaves using an a round brush is a different therapy in itself. Believe me, if you have been following me on Instagram, you would know that I love painting leaves with gouache and watercolor and creating very simple patterns just using in the leaf shape, using in the one stoke method that is just using one simple round brush for adding in leaves in different sizes and shifts. It's an absolute fun exercise and also relaxes your mind completely. You just have to loosely and freely keep adding in the leaves and let the petals blue on their own one-by-one. Now you can see I'm using in some darker tones as well in-between, you can even add different color patches in between. That is, once your leaf is wet with a lighter tone, you can just pick up some darker color and drop it in the lighter tones. Just in the last class project as we use the water blooming technique, you can use the color blooming technique. The layout is ready, that is, all the leaves are added now until this dries and I'm going to quickly take down another paper and begin adding in the pattern with the flat brush that we learned in the technique section. And then once both dry completely, we will begin adding in very simple details into these leaves using in the black and the golden pen. This was the pattern one in the leaf style. Now I'm quickly going to tape down another paper on the top and the bottom side of this sketch book out. You are at the backside and even begin adding in the same color pattern using a flat brush creating in the pattern in the flat style with the leaves. You can see we were able to add three complete rules, that is six lines of leaves, but with a rectangle pattern, we will be able to mostly be able to add in only 2.5 of the rows. Let's see if you can fit in three rows. It's perfectly good if you go, if you can only fit in 2.5 rows, that's also fine. You can even add more rows by adjusting the size of the pattern that you are adding in. If began with the light green color first again. And I'm going to seem weird, keeps shifting between different color tones. Now the bottom side line, you can see for both the lines are closer to each other. The difference in this pattern will be that in the center there will be little extra spaces as compared to when we were adding in the leaves style. Now in-between this time I'm using in some yellow colored as bell to give him little dry defects in-between. Again, shifting between the colors is completely your choice and absolutely how you wish to go ahead with. I'm just going to take a pencil and roughly mark of very light lines so that I stay on the line on the right side because I feel I may go lift it out of proportion while adding it on the right side. Now again, doing this is my choice. You need not do this. A compulsorily, even if a few of the patterns out of different sizes, it's perfectly okay. It will only add to the beauty of the pattern. Remember every time for every class project, the reason why we're doing this is to let yourself three and flowing freely. You do not have to worry about the perfect outcome. Rather, you have to enjoy the process. Let yourself three, let the colors flow and let the brushes dance onto the tune that's running into your mind. Now as I've moved towards the bottom side, you can see I'm adding in more of the darker green boxes out your, again, it's your choice you want. You can begin with the darker tones at the top and reach down with the lighter tones or just use one simple color again, completely your choice, but I would still recommend you to play with different color options. Do not stick to one single color palette. Bc, let the colors flow, you know, even that will help you in understanding how and which color compliments each other. So that even further in if you are painting into landscapes or something, these color combinations can help you judge more which color looks good together, alright, now beginning with the second batch out your, again this time there will be no difference like in the leaf we had the pointed tip and the thick end at one side. But in this pattern on both the ends we have the same kind of ending only, so it will not make any difference as it made in the leaf pattern. So I will quickly add in the second row. And I guess for the third row, I will be able to add in only one side of the pattern. That's perfectly okay. Let's be clear eyed in the second side and then shift into the third side. If you see I messed up a little bit. You're in this truck and the proportions have gone out of the line for the second line. That is the reason I had restricted myself for the first line. But again, as I told you, I'm not worried, I still like my outcome. I'm quite happy with it. If I wanted, I could have discarded this paper and re-shoot this entire thing and created the perfect outlook class project. But if you notice in each of the class projects, no matter how the outcome is looking, I'm letting the real outcome be there because I wanted to let you know, it's the process that's important rather than the outcome. It's important to let yourself enjoy while creating, rather than restricting yourself to a specific outcome, to a specific expectation. Let the colors flow, let it be expressive. Let your mind be free while creating, and then see the happiness that it brings to you. We are ready with the base for the second pattern as well. Now, they'll both of these rising. Then we will begin adding in the little doodling effect on both of these patterns. So this pattern arteriole is completely dried on the box pattern I'm going to use in the golden pen and just going to begin giving in little golden doodling. Since again, I'm going ahead with the rectangle shaped boxes. I'm going to add in the doodling in very simple way. Somewhere. I'm just going to give them little wins and somewhere I'm just going to give in our simple lines closer to each other somewhere just the angular shape of the El Gallo. And somewhere just simple spiral into these boxes itself. It's not necessarily to add the pattern to all of the boxes. It's completely your choice. I know the golden column will not be visible to you right now on the screen, but I will give you a closer loop. But this is again helpful when it is not visible. This will help you add in your own doodling that you wish to go ahead with. I have added in simple dueling, such as a simple spiral is simple, crispers lines, simple or curvy lines and simple coves as well. Simple spiral, simple lines, simple hatching, creating increase plus boxes. So I am going ahead by adding in the pattern onto the right side of the pattern for this one, again, it's your choice how you wish to go ahead with. And I would love to see your creativity flowing onto the paper, coming to the doodling part. I'm almost done with adding in the details out. You're on the second row as well. So it takes a little time to think what pattern would I like to add in more? Take your time, add your patterns as best thinking what runs in your mind. Now before giving you the final look, I will move to the last one out here. And to this one I'm going to add in simple we in effect using in the black pen. I'm going to use the 0.3 pen. You can use in any pen that is available. And I'm just going to add simple veins to these yeasts since they are leaves, I'm going over it with simple window link itself and not much to it to some of the weeds. I'm going to add in the smaller veins to the leaves and some of the wins. I'm just going to leave them simple like this. In this second line. Now, I'm adding in the veins from the top side, as you can see. Now if you want in this side also you can add the veins from the center site. Again. If you want, you can go ahead with a very different dueling has when union not follow the same window modeling as mine. You can simply given outlines to each of the leaves very roughly randomly as an oak creating the outline which is not exactly running on the sheet. So creating an outline which is a little outside the shape on one side and little inside the shape on one side. The different suggestions that I can just give you for going ahead with your creativity and letting your pattern of bloom out more beautifully. Now as you've did, do a father fine tip pen and do some of the veins as I told you, I'm just going to add in some smaller veins also picking up. So you can see I'm randomly running on one or two of the leaves, randomly leaving a few in-between us. Bell, It's very random thing that we're adding in your we're almost ready with both our patterns for the form you can see one simple shade of color and how we could create in such beautiful looking patterns into different styles. Both of them have their own appeal and own our relaxation by painting. And your is the final class project for D4 painting. What different styles? You can see, just different shape and so much of difference it makes to the pattern. Again, your resume review for the final class project. Let me give you a closer view of the colon work that I have done. If you can see, I've left the left side empty and I've just added on the alternate dried sites. And for the leaves I've added wins on each of them, and then smaller veins in some of them. This was a day for playing with the green color, letting the color of flow, and just creating a simple pattern, relaxing and adding in some doodling. I hope you guys are enjoying this class and enjoyed painting two patterns today. I will see you guys into the D5 class project tomorrow. Thank you so much once again for each one of you for joining me into this class and painting along with me each day. 12. Day 5 - The Triangle Pattern - Technique: Hello everyone. Welcome back to day five of the 10-day art therapy class. Today we are going to be painting in this triangular pattern, wherein we'll be painting triangles of different sizes and in different angles, just filling in the spaces and leaving simple white lines in-between the triangles to mark the distinction for the triangles. Now this trial project, I did it with the color combination of green and blue. But the finance class reject I will be painting in with the color combination of pink and purple. Also this time I will be playing along with the dispersions using the color drops. So in the third of the class project, if you remember, we used water to create blooms. This time we will be using in the colors to create the blooms. This class project is quite an easy one. I will get the colors ready on my palette first and then show you how we will begin adding in the triangles. So far, adding the triangular you can use in two methods. The first method would be first creating a layer of water using the brush and the water only so fast you can mark out the triangle, adding water onto the entire triangle shape that you added. And then add the colors to this and let the colors disposed on their own. So I've added a little photo. Now I've picked up a little of the red color and I've been just begin dropping in the red color using the tip of my brush. You can see because of the basically or red color, this color automatically spread and gives it a different color tones because of this and even spreading that happens. Now at one side I'm going to add in little orange out here and show you how you can mix into colors as well. If you are using this technique of adding in a layer of water previously and then beginning to add in the colors. This is how we can add the triangle in the first style, you can see the colors blend into each other because it's the water layer. Now the next method is going to be directly adding in the triangle without adding in the layer of photo. That is how I'm going to be adding into the final class project. I won't be adding in a layer of water for each of the triangles because of two reasons. One, it becomes a tedious task. Secondly, since It's a very small space and a very small shift that we have to keep adding in. You don't need the paper to stay wet for a longer time. Plus we have playing along with the loose consistency of watercolors. So it's better to let the colors flow directly rather than having in the role of water out into the pattern. Now you can see you can add in the triangles. Do they cleave without a layer of photo? Now, you have to, if adding triangles in different angles, filling in the whitespaces and of different lens and different thickness. So you can see I'm going ahead and adding in the triangle's very roughly in-between your, I added a smaller triangle to show you how you can adjust the space that becomes available after adding in some smaller ones in-between. So again, from these two smaller ones out here, I'm going to pop out for the smaller one. And then on the right side, I will take $1.1 moving towards the right side. This is how you're going to play along with different triangular sheets of different sizes. Now in this, you can go ahead with different color combinations. Again, I will be going ahead the color combination of pink and violet this time, you can see I added the darker tones while the triangles are still wet, creating some dispersions. Alright, so I'm going to be playing along with the second method and not the first method out you are, as you can see, because the second method will create more loose pattern plus it will help in getting the color dispersions much better rather than adding in a layer of water out here, I will be adding darker colors associated on the pink color. I will give them blooms, but the violet color and on the violet color we can get rooms with the pink color. This is how we are going to be painting in today's class project. Now let me give you a look of the colors that I will be using for the final class project. From my palette, I will be using in all the shades of pink. And the purpose the second drew out to or has the shades of pink and violet. So it's the Carmine color when they lack violet color. This is the ultramarine violet, which is a light violet color which I won't be using in March. And then I can use in the karma in Colorado Windows color on the basic family and basic colors of paint that you can use in and violet tones and mixing all of these together, we will even create different color tones and different color combinations. Let's begin painting the final class project. 13. Day 5 - The Triangle Pattern - Class Project: Now let's begin painting in our class project. I'm going to begin picking up the colors directly from my palette I showed you in the last lesson the colors that I will be using from my palette, I will pick the colors from my palette and transferred it onto these smaller palette out to her on the left side so that I can create a liquidy consistency of the color. Now again, I will not be specifying the exact sheets that I'm using in because I want you guys to go ahead with whichever colors Independent your palette creating in your own color tones. One, I have a light pink tone. Second one, a medium pink or red violet tone that you can use in. And the third prune that I will be picking on my palette will be the violet color. Now in-between, I will just keep mixing these three colors together on and off, creating in for the combinations and different tonal values. I have all the three colors out on my palette to each of the three colors I'm going to add in a lot of a photo. In the second color, I mixed in a little blue to get it into a red violet tone because it was more on the pink side and I wanted a little total variation. Now first I will begin in with the lighter pink tone. Now in this, you can even use in tones of brighter para, Carmine, Scarlett, the Queen Rose, Colorado, Quinlan, black color, the red violet tones differentiates of the violet color. And if you are going ahead with any different combination, then you can choose the color of that palette that you are going ahead with. Now I've just begin adding in the triangles in very random shape. Now again, the layout of your triangles can be completely different than the layout of my triangles. And that will be perfectly okay because it's absolutely not compulsory to follow the same sheep as mine. And plus the paper sizing would be different, that would make a difference. Only on the left side I'm trying to maintain that is on all the four corners that I haven't tried to maintain. That straight line looks so that when you remove the masking tape on all the four edges, you'll have that little street loop. So in case if you're one for this class project, you can even tape down your paper on all the four edges. So after removing the deep, you will get that finished look. Now you can see I'm beginning to add in some droplets of the darker tones of the color on the lighter tones. So you need to add these droplets while the base layer is still wet only then it will dispose and create a blue. And given those rough, uneven patches that we need while playing along with the loose consistency of watercolors. It anywhere if you feel that the colors are not spreading easily, you can just use a damp brush again and try to blend and bleed them into each other. The BCR I added with the light pink you can see and on one of the edges I gave in the darker tone using in the violet color. Now your app began with the red violet color that I formed by mixing in the Windows color with a little bit of the blue and the violet color. Now you can see I'm going ahead with very random triangle angles status. I'm just adding them very randomly in different shapes and different thickness. Plus I'm using in the different color combinations by creating them from the three colors on my palette. You can even add some darker paint on the edges and given some bloom effect. But remember all of that has to be done wet on wet. This repetitive triangular pattern will help you in understanding how you can use the same shape and just alter the angle or the thickness or the height and fill in the gaps with the same sheep at the end. You can see how I'm going to hit with different sizes of the triangle still in-between each of the triangles leaving in that white line for letting in each of the triangles stand out separately. This will help you understand that no matter how huge the Cloud is, even though you may be small or big, you will always stand out differently with your own qualities. So never try to match the crowd. Always try to make your own space in-between the crowd. That is what this pattern has helped me understand. You can notice by the end of the pattern, each triangle will be off, differentiate different lengths, different angle, different placement. A different color combination, but because of those white lines in between, each triangle will be visible separately. That is how you need to distinguish yourself from the crowd, no matter how well the crowd is or how high are the crowd is, then you, you will always stand out separately because of your own unique qualities. On the right side, if you see the white gap is quite thin, so I'm quickly adjusting the white gap on the left most edge as well. Because I want all the four corners of the paper to be almost equally whitespaces left in. My left side was still wet too. I just adjusted it quickly. Now quickly going to begin adding in the patterns again. You can see I'm quickly altering between the three colors that is on my palette. I'm not following any specific color or pattern to go ahead with. I'm just going with my own intuition and letting the colors flow. You can even go ahead creating in the pattern moving from the lighter tone at the top, then moving to a darker tone, then the father darker tool. That's completely your choice, but I wish to keep it a mix and match this time. I'm going to head with a mixture of all colors in-between. I will even keep adding the lighter tones switch to darker. And again, the lighter tones. I'm completely enjoying painting in this pattern. And I'm going ahead very slowly building in one triangle at a time, trying to make different color combinations possible. Because it's quite fun and relaxing to paint these triangles. You can even who ahead with different color combinations of the primary color as we went for the first-class projects are beginning with the yellow, then shifting into a lighter orange tone, then a darker orange then shifting into red are creating in the column mixes using the primary colors. Or you can even go ahead, it differentiates the blue for this one. But in the coming class project we are going to be painting one fact in very loose and the lovely indigo pattern. So I didn't want it to go ahead with the blue color for this one. Somehow this color combination of the pinks and purples attracts me a lot. I just felt like going ahead with this color pattern for this class project. Plus this is one of my most favorite class project because of the, you know, confidence or because of the message that this conveys to me. If you remember in the beginning of the class, I told you this class is not outcome-based. This class is not about perfection. This class is all about setting yourself free and letting the colors flow, creating without any expectations. Do not compare your class project result, even with my class project, how it is turned out with, because your comparison should only be with yourself. What you were yesterday and what you are today. You, yourself is your biggest competition. No one is your competition, except for yourself yesterday and yourself today. Try on walking, making yourself better, rather than making yourself better compared to someone else. If you try to compare yourself with someone and in competition with that, you try to make yourself better. Remember you are restricting yourself because to you, the better is only tell where that person has reached and not beyond that. But if you were in competition with yourself, you are not restricting yourself. You are rather challenging yourself to be better every day with yourself than what you were yesterday, setting your own limits and your own boundaries high. So always compare your progress with yourself and never with anyone is. That's what this triangle pattern again conveys to me. If you see every triangle has a different color combination going ahead and differentiate different movement, different size, different lens. Same way. In this world, we are all different people with different qualities, different appearances, defend all backgrounds. But at the end, again, it's you who has to stand out separately and create that space for yourself. I'm absolutely loving how this pattern is turning out. And you can see with every stroke how beautifully this pattern is developing. I'm very consciously adding in these triangles so that I do not miss onto the white gaps in between. Because I want each of the triangle to have its own identities standout, you can see in-between playing along with the colors by using in the darker tones on the edges to create some highlights spaces. Also at the top, if you notice, I used the colors with a lot of water plating in that lighter effect in the center. If you notice the colors are a little more vibrant, standing out more different than the top space. Now in the same way, I'm going to keep adding in the further triangles at the bottom half of the page as well. Now onto this triangle, I'm going to add in some balloons using in the same violet color. No matter the color is same, but when this triangle will dry, you will see the effect of these blooms standing out separately. You can even create some blooms using ingest water droplets, just as we did in the third class project. So the techniques are unknown to you. It's about how you apply them into your class project and your creativity. As I said, you're free for using in your own color palette. You are even free to go ahead with your creativity for making each of the triangles stand out separately. For instance, you can add in some dawdling after these giant. Or you can even all you know, as I told you, create balloons using in water or different color combinations. You can even make some of the triangles overlapping each other using in the transparent method that we use a little in the third class project. But the reason of not using in that method your risk because In these, in one of the class projects, we are going to be painting a beautiful floral pattern using in the transmitting petal techniques, wherein we will create one petal at a time and then lead with the second petal and create beautiful flower or padding. They have almost reached three fourths of the paper. And I'm going in very slowly as you can see, I'm trying not to rush because I do not want to go out of proportion or lose my white edges this time. This is one of my favorite patterns, as I told you and walking on, this is giving me immense happiness. Hence, I'm taking my own time creating in this pattern slowly. I would recommend us bell. A smaller A6 size paper would hardly take 15 to 20 minutes for creating in this pattern. Going slowly, do not drag. Try adding in different distinctions. Do not go ahead with simple, plain one color. Try to play with colors. The colors of your choice create some difference into the painting. And also let the colors flow freely. Do not worry about the outcome. Again. Just let the colors do its magic and the sheep bring the magic to your painting. In-between, you can notice I'm using quite smaller triangles to fill in the gaps so that I do not have much whitespaces in-between the triangles lift up. Because in-between the triangles I just want very small spaces to be lifting visible. So make sure you also use in some smaller triangle, some triangles in different angles as to fill in the white gaps. If you feel the white dots are going in long. Under these triangles, you can see I've created color dispersions by using the lighter pink at the top and then adding in the violet color at the bottom. The two to three, while it dark triangles that have added almost in the center spaces are standing out so separately and creating a difference to the pattern plus the light patches on the top are creating a different look to this pattern. So again, I will tell you as bell play with different color tones of the same color. You can see I have used an only the three colors, but still almost each of the triangle has a different color tone to it. Five to six different color tones bombed in just using the three colors. Plus playing along with the loose consistency. That is, if you play with the loose watercolor flow, that is adding in more of water, it will further create different looks, different dispersions, different blooms. So please, and let the colors do the magic. I have almost reached the end of the paper and will almost be done with this class project in a minute or two. Now, I absolutely loved painting this, and I hope you guys enjoyed painting this one. Remember again, the competition is only with yourself and no one else around. It's only you and you, and that will help you grow rather than comparing it with anyone else. Just one last two triangles out here, and we will be ready with a patent for d5. As Ben, I'm just adding in some darker tins onto whichever tangles are still red, creating in some darker dispersions and balloons. You can see I'm adding in quite smaller triangles, filling in the spaces that I do not have much white gaps in-between. And I'm so happy with how this pattern has turned out. It's, let me be so free. Plus this was the most relaxing pattern that I have painted so far, and I absolutely loved the outcome. Now you can create thank-you cards with these as well. In-between you can lay down masking tape so that you have whitespaces and you can write in your messages out there. So we will be doing once at similar project in the coming day with the leaf pattern. But for now, this is a pattern for d5. You can see the dispersions of the violet color that I added at the last minute onto those wet triangles. I hope you guys enjoyed painting this d5 class project with me. And I hope you will consider only yourself as the competition from now on. I will see you guys into the D6 class project tomorrow. Thank you so much once again to each one of you for joining me into this class. See you guys tomorrow into the next class project. 14. Day 6 - Be-LEAF in Yourself - Technique: Hello everyone. Welcome back to the ten day our therapy class. We are on day six today. And today we will be painting very simple leaf pattern using in the green colors. Again. Your, if you see I have painted the leaves without leaving any gaps. But for the final class project, we will be leaving a little space in-between. The colors of green that I will be using are all out. You're on my palette. You can go ahead with whichever green sheets are available in your palette, or you can form your own greens by mixing in yellow and blues. I'm going to be using this one round brush itself for adding in all the leaves. This is a size eight round brush with a pointed tip. Let me guide you through the technique of adding the leaves using a round brush. For painting these leaves, we are going to be using the colors in a very liquidy consistency. So I'm going to first pick up this light pink color and pick it up on my palette and mixing a little water to it so that it's in a liquid employee consistency. Then using the round brush we will begin adding in the leaves branches now to these leaves as Ben, when they are where you can add the blooms using in water or the darker green color. Plus you can even create two tone and leaves using in the round brush itself. First, let's understand the simple stroke. I will begin with a very thin branch. Suggest using the tip of the brush. I will first given the branch in whichever angle, shape, and size I want it to go. Then for adding in the leaves, I will begin with a thin stem, press the belly of the brush and lift it up once I'm satisfied with the length of the leaf and give it a pointed tip. This is called as one stroke leaf. Now on the same brush I just picked up a little darker green without cleaning in the lighter green. And you can see the difference in the color in-between the first and the second leaf, the lighter tone defense. Now I will pick up one more tone.com and begin with the same angle leaf. So I begin with a thin stem, press the belly of the brush until I'm satisfied with the length of the leaf. And then pick up the brush. Once I'm satisfied with the length. Same way, I'm just going to add leaves on the other side as well. Now just by adjusting the pressure of the brush, you can add the leaves in different sizes using in one brush size itself. So you can see now with the size eight brush itself, I'm adding in some smaller leaves. Let me give you a closer view. Alright, so this all depends on how much pressure you apply onto the value of the brush and how long you collect. If you want smaller leaves, you add in less pressure and pull it lightly. Now, while these leaves us still wet, you can just pick up some darker green colors given some vein details as well in the center, or given some blooms with the darker color, that's completely until you have you want to video leaves in-between. As I told you in the final class project, we will be adding in court as well for that, we will be using masking tape and keeping the space clean. Now for adding in the photo leaves, I'm picking up the VDD and Jean follow. Now if you do not have the viridian green color, It's absolutely okay. You can go ahead with whichever color is available in your palette on. You can go ahead with emerald green as well, or any other greens or whichever available in your palette, you can set your own color tone. If you do not want to go ahead with greens, you can go ahead with blues or browns as well. It's completely your choice. Now, I'm going to show you how you can do color leaf using in one stroke itself. False lifted the light green color. Then on the tip I lifted the viridian green color. And you can see that when I begin the brushstroke, I have more of viridian green, and then it turns to the lighter green color, which is at the bottom of the brush. Depending on which color you want that to, which space you need to pick up the colors like I needed the lighter green color at the end. First time picking up the lighter green color. And then I picked up the viridian green color to just add it to the tip. Now in other way, you can first add a leaf using in the lighter green color. Then pick up the viridian green color and just started at the bottom as well to create the two tone and leaves. So there are two different ways, how you can add them. It's completely onto your practice and your wish, how you wish to add these leaves? I've just tilted my paper because it becomes easier for me to add the leaves on the other side so as to get the perfect angle. Otherwise the brush doesn't move and freely for me. Say it again onto you. If you are able to add it from one angle itself, you can add all the sides from one angle or simply flip down your paper on a movable surface so that easily you can tilt your paper and get the perfect angle and strokes. So we have a branch of leaf ready. In the same way we are going to be adding in lots of branches on the paper of view of the leaves will be overlapping each other as well. And we will be creating that beautiful leaf pattern, letting ourselves free and let the watercolors flow. Depending on the color that you are planning to go ahead with. You can get all the color shades ready. Now if you are going ahead with the green color and if you do not have the lighter and the darker tones, you can use yellow color to create lighter tones. And you can use blue and rounds to create the darker tones. This is about the technique for this class project. In the next lesson, let's begin painting in a final class project together. 15. Day 6 - Be-LEAF in Yourself - Class Project: Let's begin with a final class project for D6. I have my paper taped down and now we're using in the masking tape, I will create a space in-between for writing in a cold plated on. You can use in any masking tape that suits your paper. Now, almost a little about the center I'm going to be creating in this space. You can create this piece depending on the place that you want to write the code. It can be at the bottom of the paper, at the top of the paper, at the center of the paper, it's absolutely your choice. Now, I am leaving an uneven space, as you can see. The edges, as you can see, are very uneven. Cut them properly because they want the leaves to be there in this uneven shape out there. Now when we will be adding half of the leaves moving onto these masking tape spaces, we will have half of the leaf effect and the bottom layer would stay white itself. And then we will try the good ones are leaves are completely dry. So let's begin adding in the leaves using the round brush. I'm going to quickly begin creating the colors in a good liquidy consistency on my palette so that it's easier to add them in the flowing consistency. First, I'm picking up the light green color. This is the midline color from the white knight set. You can go ahead with the light theme color, yellow, green color by whatever name it is in your color palette. Again, for this class, I'm not specifying any color combinations on any specific color shader color pigment that I'm using it. Because this is a very fun and relaxing class without worrying about the color tones, you are free to go ahead with any color combination if you do not want to go ahead with the green color combination, just beginning to add in. Before that makes sure you get it in the right light consistency. Now I have shifted to a size six brush instead of a size eight brush wheezing being this paper is quite a smaller one and I want to add in more smaller details so as to add more details. Now beginning with the thin stem, I'm just going to begin adding in the leaves one-by-one. So you can see how using the belly of the brush you can add these ones stroke leaf. And then if you feel that the leaf is incompletely thick enough, you can add for the little details at the bottom or the top side depending on the shape of the leaf that you desire. Now I didn't little of the darker green touch just at the bottom. Now for the next leaf, I just picked up a little darker green on my brush itself, mixed it with the light green color. Now I'm going to go ahead with a mixed color combination of the leaves. I'm not going to add them with one single color. Some of them I will be adding with the color combination of two leaves, some just light color tones. Some of the leaves I will even be adding by adding in the darker tones, wet on wet, we're adding in the blues and dissolves the leaves. I may just add in simple windy days at the center with the darker colors. Now I've completely added onto the one side. Now I will quickly begin adding in the leaves on the other side of this branch. If you are not comfortable by adding it to, if you can tilt your paper and feel free to adjust your hand angles with two to the best and makes him comfortably add these leaves freely. If you want, you can first practice these leaves on it, a sheet of paper. That is the one-stop leaf method. It will help you are adding these leaves much more easily in the final class project. Now in this little space out here, I'm just going to add in one or two more leaves out loosely trying to show they're popping out from the edges out here. If you'll notice by now, I have only been using in two colors and with two colors only I have created in so many different shades of leaves by using the different techniques that we discussed. Now I have picked up the next green color and using in this darker green for now, I will begin adding in furthermore leaves. This is how using ingest even two colors of green, you can create so many different tones by altering the proportion of both the greens that you mix and also altering the water content in your color. Now the next branch I'm going to add, you're on the right side, moving downwards towards the right side it says, and begin adding in the leaves in the same way as we added for the first ranch. But just a color combinations are going to be farther different because I've picked up a third color now. And I'm going to keep mixing in these three colors vary randomly and creating in different color patterns for the leaf. Now you can see as we reach near to the center area masking, the color does not get laid down at the bottom right people, those leaves will be visible. In half, and then we will remove that masking paper I begin, the leaves will look very beautiful though have the demeanor beautiful pattern. In this way, you can create a whitespace what any of the previous patterns as well. If you wish to write any quotes or messages in the whitespaces, these meet as beautiful time cue cards as well. Or useful reading God's along with your presence as well. Using the masking tape, you can just create whitespace for writing in your message. And in the rest of the spaces, you can add the packages that we have been learning so far. Now for glyph logo near of leaves, I'm picking a photo, darker green, mixing it with the greens on my palette. I'm going to head with query random mixed. I am repeating this again because I do not want you peptide will get the same color combination. You'll notice that I have been randomly mixing all the pins that's out on my palette without worrying about what color is being formed, I'm just letting the greens do its magic. You can see all the different genes that are coming out it on my paper by vary randomly mixing in the greens on my palette. For this smallest pieces on the paper, you can see I've been adding loose leaves just as I did at the top right and the left side has been now adding in this next tranche of leaf at the bottom space moving downwards. And you can see how beautifully again, near to the masking tape, we have got those half leaf patterns. Now to this branch is leaves while they're still wet, I'm going to add in some darker depth. So I'm going to pick up the darker green color and just using the tip, I'm going to drop in some darker green onto one side of the leaves. You can see just using the tip of the brush and dropping in the darker green onto 1 eighth. And because the leaf is thin bed, you can see the colors flowing in so easily and blending into each other. Creating again, a different kind of leaves in the same class protect itself. Now beginning another branch OTO, moving towards the right side. If you notice, I've added the movement of the leaves also in defended action so as to not make the pattern look more notorious, it's very important to 3D the layout of the branches of the leaves as well. That they make a pretty pattern at the end of it all. If you've NPV adding them in this one direction, you will have in very uneven spaces left in between, which will not give a good look to your pattern. Move freely. Or it's not compulsory to move and add in the same direction as I have added it. But just try to 3D the direction of the branches of the leaves that you are adding in and in-between the smallest In this MOOC, in this died in the filler leaves as I have been adding. Now beginning with another blank, just nice for this branch, you will notice the color will be a little on the darker side. If you'll notice my color patterns also, I started with a very lighter green branch, that is the first topless grant. For the second branch, I shifted to a darker green tone. For the third branch that is at the bottom left side or just near to the masking tape if you see the color tones but a little on the darker side again, compared to the false two strokes. Then again for the fourth one, I should still do the lighter tone. And now again, I've shifted to the darker tone. In this phase, you'll see all the leaves branches look different and standard differently because of the little colored is since that the leaves caddy along with them. Now to fill this space on the next side, I'm going to add a hospital and kind of a loop. So half of the needs out you all will not be visible, and half of the leaves on the right side will be visible clearly. The left side, you can see I'm just adding in half of the leaf, so half of the leaf is out of the site. Now I'm just next to fill in little space at the bottom center space, as you can see there, I'm just going to add in some loose leaves out together from one leaf itself. And this is going to pop up three to four of the leaves trying to show a small branch out you're popping around. Alright, so we are almost done with the layout. We're left to just add in the code. Now the code, again B of your choice, it need not be the same as mine. But I would recommend you to, you know, I'll do this class project by adding in a court so that you get a difference in all of your class projects as well. And plus you will understand how the masking tape can help you in, you know, creating the whitespaces as well as breaking the patterns in between. So the breaking leaf pattern that will come into live as soon as we remove the masking tape. When he carefully I'm going to remove the masking tape as my leaves around the masking tape or completely jiving, going very slowly. Or you can wait for your entire paper to dry first and then remove the masking tape very carefully as you need to go in very slowly with this, but also do not lay your hand onto the bottom leaves which are still wet while removing the masking tape. You can see the whitespace that is created with the help of the masking tape. Now I will pick this removes the top and the bottom masking papers Bell, and wait for all of the leaves to dry completely and then begin adding in the code in the center space. Otherwise, I will lay my hand onto the wet fleece. Now my leaves are completely dried and I will begin adding in a court, I'm going to add the code beliefs in your cells. But for the spelling of beliefs, it is going to be B and the leaf word instead of believe in yourself, I would always recommend you only and only believe in yourself, believe in your instinct, and believe in your heart book. Again, do not compare yourself with anyone else. The only competition is you. You are says today and tomorrow and yesterday. Just compare yourself with your progress from yesterday. And just believe in yourself. Nobody is going to believe in you except for you yourself. Make sure you give yourself the last statute dissolve. And always says now is more important than any form of love. At the end, after I had a little extra space, I wanted votes to go ahead till the end because at the top line I had started it from the left end and at the bottom I wanted it to go to the right end. So I've just added that little connecting to the F or later out there. Alright, so your class project for these six, believe in your cells and everything will be easy and what it, I hope you guys enjoyed painting this beautiful pattern with me today. I will see you guys tomorrow into the D7 class project. Thank you so much once again to each one of you for joining me into this class and painting along with me. I hope you are enjoying these 15 to 20 minutes of your d creating these loose patterns freely without worrying about the outcome and comparing it with anyone else. Thank you once again. 16. Day 7 - Nature Elements - Technique: Hello everyone, Welcome back to D7. Today we are going to be painting another beautiful loose pattern blocks. Onto that. We will be doing simple dude link of nature. Elements such as tweaks, leaves, Bird's Nest, swing for the defendant nature elements. Let's begin understanding how we are going to be painting this beautiful class project for today. If you notice deliberately between the blocks, I have tried to make them mix and blend into each other and let the colors flow. And in some of the blocks I have made sure to leave gaps as well. The beauty of these pattern is to deliberately let the colors flow into each other, creating in those mixed color patches. And also letting the colors flow, bleed into each other and dry in, in a very rough angle. There are again, two ways how you can do that. First one is adding in a layer of water and then adding the colors onto this and let the colors this post on their own. So I've added in a layer of water for now. I'm going to be playing along with the reds and orange this time. I have first picked up the orange color and you can see it onto the water. I'm just letting the orange color bid in different color tones Somewhere. I've added little darker tone somewhere, just let it lighter tones. Now just underneath this, I'm going to add in the second block. Now you can see when I'm adding in the second block on the right side, if you see I have deliberately made the false block meet with the second law and making the colors bleed into each other. So I added a layer of water in such a way that it connected with the first block. Now if it does not happen smoothly, you can even connected with the colors like this. For the second block, I went in for the tone of the red color. Now for this also, you can go ahead with your own color combinations, but I will be going along with the different sheets off a yellow, orange and the pink and the red tones. I will be using more towards the audience and that excite and less towards the yellow and the pink side. All right, Now I'm going to begin adding in the third block in the same way. But for the code block, I will be going ahead with the different techniques. I'll show you the second technique that you can use it. I have created a watercolor in a very liquidy consistency and I'm directly adding in the block with this liquidy watercolor, as you can see. Now onto this block, I'm just adding some darker details again, using the tip of the brush as you can see. Now, I can begin adding in the second row. So for the second lock as well, I'm going to go ahead directly with the color. When I begin adding in the second glove, again, this time I'm connecting it on the right side. And you can see the colors bleeding into each other. Now you can see the block is almost connected to the first law, and that's perfectly okay. It's onto you which blocks you want to give him the connections. And with blocks you want to leave them political separate. It's not compulsory to connect all of the blocks. Not compulsory to leave each of the blocks alone. Now on to the second block, I'm adding a little of the blooming effect using in the water technique that is just using the tip of my brush. You can see I'm dropping some water droplets to create the balloons. These are the two ways how you can create the blocks. One by adding in a layer of water second, directly going ahead with the color in liquidy consistency. Now in both the methods after this, we will be adding in doodling using in the black pen and the metal with the golden pen if needed. If you do not have the golden penny, you can simply in the black pen. As I told you this time, we will be doodling nature elements. You can go ahead and do them. Any other nature elements that comes into your mind giving into the layer I'm going to be meeting in most of the needs two elements as I've done in the sample class project. I'll see you guys into the next lesson where we begin painting the final class project. 17. Day 7 - Nature Elements - Class Project: Let's begin painting a class project for D7. As I told you, I will be going ahead with the shades of orange and I have my color palette. And I will be detected using the colors from my palette and mix them in a liquidy consistency out you're onto my ceramic palette. First, I'm beginning with this shade of audience from my palette. You can go ahead with the shade of blue, vermilion, orange, scarlet, or yellow orange, which usually is available in your palette. And if you are changing the color combination, again, that is absolutely your choice. But I would recommend to go ahead with some light color tones only do not go with darker tones of blue and violet because the pattern will not stand out on those darker colors. So I'm going ahead with the lighter tones. That is the orange and the red color palette, I've added in the false block, you can see very randomly have added in the decoy effects as well onto the edges. Now I'll begin with the second Look. I'm not taking much time for adding in this Vizio for the pattern. We will be adding doodling after everything drives in. Very mindfully just create the pattern and let the colors bleed and flow into each other at very random points. And also if you notice the shapes that I'm adding are not exactly rectangle or clean shape. I'm trying to keep them also it rough and row. That is again, the beauty of this pattern. Now I'm making the dark Academy in color flow into both the orange and the red colored tones. And this last block, I'm going to add it with this darker tone itself and make it also bleed a little into the top block says, now for the next column out here, I'm going ahead with the second technique that we learned that it's adding in a layer of water. Now In C, very randomly, I've connected the first and the second block of the first row. It says, use again just little water. I made that little orange color bleeding. Now I'm using the yellow orange tone out your and that is a little different than the false stone. And add the water, I'm adding in the dark orange tone that's already on my palette. You can also notice that my blocks are all of different sizes, not of the same size itself. So that is again, the loose beauty of this pattern, that every block is different yet so beautiful altogether. Again, by this is still wet. You can see I'm creating in some bloom patterns using in the darker color tones, just dropping it using the tip of the brush. If you want the profit blooms of the colors, it's very important to add the blooms while the pattern is still wet. So that is one thing that you need to keep in mind if you will try adding the blooms once your pattern or the block has dried analytic, it will not give you the effect rather, let me just give you one single color patch instead of creating the balloon and the color bleeding effect. Now in-between you can see I add a little color and then just use water to lighten the tones, create lighter tones, and create that watery effect. And the loose watercolor effect now vary randomly or Madelyn connection in-between the blocks again. Now undo this block. I'm adding a little of the orange effect at the top space. You can see how beautifully the color bleeds and floors. When there is extra water on the rightmost edge in-between the two blocks, you can see the color flowing is looking so beautiful. And when this will dry, it will further create a beautiful effect. We are under the last block out your and at the top I've given in the darker color tone and at the bottom, again, a little of the orange tint. Now I have purposely connected the last two blocks with each other and created that flow of colors between each other. You can see just three to four colors that I've been using. But overall, the pattern looks so colorful, such a different VIII wanted to gather. And believe me, when you see the colors floating into each other on your own paper, it's a different feeling of satisfaction. Plus It's a very satisfying process to see the colors bleed and how they blend into each other, creating these beautiful textures. The color tools, we add id with the base layer. Now we need to wait for it to dry completely and only then we can add in the nucleus. So let's wait for this to dry completely and then begin adding the dueling on this. My BATNA is dried completely and you can see the beautiful textures of the blues. Now let us begin adding in the dueling using in the three different pens. First, I'm going to be using my black brush pen and add some thicker strokes. That is some deep branch at the topmost base. And from then that I'm going to add a little of the smaller branches hanging out and little details of the nature elements. If you do not have this, take brush pen or different sizes of pen, you can simply using one single black pen. Or if you do not even have a black pen, you can simply using your watercolors and create using in the brush. Now I'm just going to add in a little just so cool elements using in the teacup. And now I will shift to the smallest size bend and begin adding in the smaller elements to this. Make sure that your paper is completely dry, otherwise the blank ink will begin to bleed and we'll spray. So it's very important for everything in the background to be dyed completely. Now from the tweak that we have added at the top space, I'm just adding in some random balls hanging out some string again. Now I've added in one branch and from that I'm going to pop out a few of the leaves. You can see me going with very random googling, anything interrelated to lead to that comes to your mind that you wish to add in roughly two added at the bottom I taught again, I'm adding in one big branch from which I will be handing the boats nest as Ben and some other few elements has been. First, I'm adding in a swing out here. Alright, so again, these are very last nature elements that you can think of. Just imagine a small puff, oddest model of gotten in your surrounding. And think of the things that come to your mind that you wish to add it. At the bottom most part out you're just adding a very simple bird feeder. So you can see very simple googling, very rough, very plain. And it without any perfect measurements or anything, just playing along loosely out, you're disputing some random spider B3 to add your own creativity to the elements that you wish to add in. You can even add in some defend or T elements to each of the block. Or you can add in different kinds of leaves, different shapes of these to each of the elements. You can even go ahead and add in a few of the boards as well. You can add in a mixed match up certain flowers again. But since for the first-class project, we already have done an outflow of background in a similar way. I did not want to go ahead with the flag of Athena. Now the difference in the first-class project, in this class project is in the first-class project. We had gone ahead with very simple colors using the primary colors and very simple blocks which were not blending and bleeding into each other. But in this class project we have made the boxes deliberately bleed into each other, flow into each other, let the fellows create its own color or form those different pictures. Very roughly, I'm adding in a few feathers as well. That comes into my mind. Now. I am giving in another born from behind of this big ball that we have added in the basic elements that I've used in, in some balls hanging from the branches, some leaves, feathers, the board miss the spring. Now I will shift to a teacup and, and just begin adding in some thicker outline to these details that I've added in. Make sure that you use a little smooth green paper. Because when you add details using enough pen, it becomes difficult if the paper has a texture, your pen or moves in a crooked manner. And that becomes difficult for adding in the patterns easily. Now I'm just going to add some simple doodling and some simple elements. Urine, there are tiara I'm adding in one mode tweet which is in divine wisdom been branch that we have added in and do this as well. I'm just going to add in little leaf or a branch DPs. In this last block here, I'm going to add in few of the cactus leaf popping up from the bottom space. Very simple details that we're adding in as you can see, and it's fun to play along loosely. And when you paint on these beautiful patterns that are created by just letting the colors to its magic. It's more fun and relaxing. Just ten to 15 minutes. But such beautiful patterns and believe me, they are absolutely frame body and the energy that the pass into the surrounding that you put them will be completely different. Now I'm going to be using in the golden pen and just adding in little details. Now the golden details may not be visible to you on the screen. But believe me, when I'm seeing the class project life incentives me, it's clearly visible to me and it added, and it adds its own blink and magic to the entire pattern. Just eating some crisscross patches. You can take the pattern or the dueling outside of the blocks as well. Elite me OPN completely perfect. You don't have to stick your dawdling just to the blocks. You can even match the dueling in-between the two blocks, as you can see at the top space, I've not restricted my dawdling specifically do just one block. I've tried to mix and match them out. That is, if not, let's remove the masking tape and see our final painting with a little closer view. I hope you enjoyed painting this beautiful loose pattern today and adding in the nature elements and feeling connected with the nature of making your mind run and search for all the nato elements that you can add in. This was again, a pretty fun exercise just to let your mind free and connected with the nature again and letting the colors flow. That is the reason I used in very light colors. I'm just adding little more doodling in the center block because they founded a little empty. So that is it. We are ready with the class project for D7. Three more days away from closing this ten-day art therapy Challenge class. I hope you guys enjoyed painting this with me today. I will see you guys tomorrow into another class project. Thank you so much once again to each one of you for taking out the specialist 15 minutes and joining me into this class every day. 18. Day 8 - Indigo Pattern - Technique: Hello everyone. Welcome back to the ETE. We adjust three days of interim closing this Tandy, our therapy class. Today we are going to be painting this beautiful, easy indigo pattern, just using one color. So I tried to mix in the greens and the blue, but I somehow love just playing along with the indigo color or pattern. Now today, we will be going ahead with one single color for this class project. If you want, you can surely go ahead with different color combinations. That's absolutely your choice. I'll show you how we'll be adding in this design to create this beautiful indigo pattern. As the name goes, the indigo pattern, the Canada we will be using is the indigo color itself. But we are going to be using the indigo color in a very liquidy, watery consistency. So I will just begin picking up a little of the indigo carried out. You are on my palette and add water to it to create it and get it into the liquidy flowing consistency. Now, do not worry if you do not have the indigo color, you can go ahead with any other tone of blue mixing a little bit of Payne's gray to occlusion blue if you want to form an indigo color, or you can even use the pollution load directly, or for that matter, any other color, not specifically blue that you can go ahead with. Now for painting this pattern, we're going to begin in bit of very simple or bigger size. You, this, you will not be it completely or taller. You, it's going to be rather abroad you, as you can see, you can call it an inverted see actually, this is the biggest one in the pattern. Now inside this we will be adding two to three of the smaller inverted sees. Just going to begin adding in more of the seas. But before that I will just add in another bigger you of the same size. Now when we move to the next line, we will begin from the center of the first and move till the center of the second and other similar inverted c out. You're all like to do the center of the next one. This is how you are going to create the pattern. Now, on the left side you can see little space to mean. So there you would just add in the half remaining pattern. Seem beyond the rightmost side, there will be little space to meaning we will add the remaining pattern out there. Now inside we will be adding in the smaller inverted sees, as I told you. For that, you can add in three or two depending on your space that stays there. If I didn't want mix of both, even you can go ahead with a mix of both. Now as I keep going photo, you can see the thickness of the C reduces as well. And at the top, that is the last edge I given a little droplet kind of a shift. Now in this also, I'm randomly going to be dropping in some darker color patches onto the wet or Cs that we are adding in. Alright, so while your background off the light color is still wet, you can just simply add in little darker patches to create bloom and given little textures. Now in this second nine-year-old, you can see how we are adding the smallest sees inside it and the droplet goes exactly in between the two patterns. And the third, that is the second line pattern exactly loops between the first two pattern. This is how you will be adding this pattern on repetitive mode depending on the size of your paper. Now the final class project that we are painting is on the smallest size paper, that's an E6 size paper. I will be going ahead with little smaller sizes of the EU and a little lesson thickness so that I can at least have two to three rows added in easily to make the pattern standard. If you want, you can paint this class exercise on a bigger size paper as better, not go ahead with the smaller one. This is the entire technique that's adding the sea in an inverted manner and creating in the line one after the other, giving him the details. So this is how we will be adding in the final class project. As I told you, I will be adding with the smallest size. So the paper size that we're using for the final class project is this small size is six paper. I will be adding in such a way that I can at least 2.5 of these, if not completely three, because three would be too much to fit in. I will try and fit in 2.5. Later. I will go ahead with smallest sizes. You can go along with the sizes depending on the size of your paper. That is about the technique for this class project, we will begin painting the final class project in the next lesson. 19. Day 8 - Indigo Pattern - Class Project: Let's begin painting our class project for the eighth. Now, I'm quickly going to pick up a little more of the indigo color before we begin and get it into a good liquidy consistency there, make sure to add in a lot of water to play along with the fluid consistency of the paint. It would not get that feel of the loose watercolor techniques out. You're, now if you want to add in more textures and more difference to your painting, you can even add water blooms or to some of those inverted sees that we will be adding. You can even connect one or two C's to each other and let the colors bleed into each other naturally. Now you may think that the same color bleeding into the same color, what difference will it make? But believe me, when the bleeding happens or even through one color into the same color, it creates a very different texture and a very different effect onto your painting. And it adds to the beauty of these Lewis patents. Now ready randomly, I will just begin adding in these inverted sees. And while this is still wet, I will keep adding in some darker textures as well. As you can see I'm for studying in the bigger sees out here so that I know how many seeds can be added in. So as I told you, approximately 2.5 that I will be able to add it. Alright. I'm just adding in the half out here. Now, I will begin adding in the smaller ones, or maybe I will first add in the bigger ones in the second line as well. Then move ahead for the width, the smaller ones needed on. You can notice very randomly to some of them, I'm adding in the darker texture. Now in the second line. This, the first scene looks a little widespread as compared to the other sees that I've added. And that's perfectly okay. It's not a dollar problem. If you want, you can add the seam of fat in, in our different inverted format. Suggest as we are adding these C in a new format, you can add this C completely inverted and into a mountain shape out there and keep adding in the smaller details. Or you can simply paint the entire pattern like this and just turn it upside down. Now in-between, I added two strokes with the cobalt blue color because I wanted to give a little defend blue strokes to it. It's completely onto you again as you wish to add it. Now if you'll notice, because in the second row, my OC had gone a little extra white, blue in the card rule, my OS, the second half of pattern that I added is a little small as compared to the first row. Again, that is perfectly okay. Let your pattern we descend in each of the line. Let it be of different sizes and still it will look very beautiful at the end altogether. I'm gonna adding in the bigger strokes for each of them. Now I'm picking up little more of the cobalt blue as I begin to add in the details at the top space. Now, make sure if you have also added in only the bigger ones first, either wait for all of the bigger ones to dry completely before laying your hand onto the pattern. Because now you can see I'm facing it and finding it a little difficult because I cannot lay my hand on the paper as the bottom strokes are still wet. So I need to if my hand a little bit in the air and keep adding it and using the brush strokes. This makes it a little difficult as you do not have support to your hand. So either you can wait for it to dry completely and then begin adding in further. Now after adding these with cobalt blue, I'm just adding in little darker tones, as you can see. In-between our TR, you can see I've taken the indigo color in a good dark form and with just one indigo color also, if you'll notice, I have so many different sheets because I'm using the color in different consistency, that is by altering the content of water. Now as I told you in some of them, you can just add in one additional stroke inside and then just add the droplet. So you can see in the second row, I have done that, that I added just one stroke and added the droplet directly. And the third picture that I told you, you can meet two of those C's are connected to each other points in the third row, you can see I have, I'm connected in the first 12 of the C's together, creating in a defendant shot altogether again. This is the most easiest of all the pattern, very quick enough to paint, but very beautiful. And believe me, these are if painted in a multi-color or rainbow color TO make good covers for your sketch. If you look below ours on pushing covers for your sofa and your white rooms, these colorful patterns would surely stand out separately and make beautiful abstract coverings for your home furnishings. Now I'm just going to fill in the rest of the spaces out here at the top and the bottom. So at the bottom, at this pace They should be droplets coming in. So I added the droplets and at the top space it should be the half c that should be there in. So I'm just adding those and filling up the spaces quickly. That is it. We are ready with the pattern. Let's remove the masking tape and CFR and then painting with a little closer view, you can see those little dark strokes in-between vary randomly create so much more depth into the painting. This pattern was absolute fun and just an easy one to flow freely and let the colors do its magic though one color, but you can see so many different shades of indigo just with one color itself. Now, I'm just adding in some more darker depth at random places where that is still wet to give them little texture detail. And some where I'm adding where it is giant as well, so as to give you a little more texture and write different effects. I hope you guys enjoyed painting this beautiful indigo pattern with me today. You can see how beautifully the colors are moving steely and loosely. And even when connected to each other, the still creates so much beauty into the painting. I will see you guys into the dynein class project tomorrow. We are just two days away from closing this trendy at class. I hope you guys are enjoying painting these patterns freely without worrying about the results and just letting the colors do its magic. So you guys into the next class project tomorrow. Thank you so much once again to each one of you for joining me into this class. 20. Day 9 - Transparent Flowers - Technique: Hello everyone. Welcome back to day nine off the attendee art therapy class. We are going to be painting this beautiful, transparent petal, loose floral today as our class project. So I will teach you the techniques for creating these beautiful transparent petal flowers one-by-one, step-by-step. So let's begin understanding how we will be creating these beautiful pattern for painting the flower we are going to be using in any shade of pink I am using in the Carmine colored out your, you can go ahead and use any colors college Carmine, wind, rose, rose matter, whichever color you wish to go ahead with, or any shade of orange, blue, whichever shade comes to your mind, and whichever is your favorite, maybe we have to use the color in a very liquidy consistency. You can see I have added in so much water and very less of pigment. Now we will begin creating the petals one-by-one, using this transparent watercolor, we're going to create one petal at a time. You will see in a petal in a very, very rough shape out you're in the same way. I will add one more petal, but leaving a lot of space in-between these two petals. In-between the gap we will be adding in the credit once these petals dry in and so forth, I will be adding in the code petal out. Now, it's until you, if you want to create a sixth petal flower or five petaled flower, I will add one more flower out. I will begin with the first petal. Now in this flower, the second pattern, I will add it closely to the first pattern itself in such kind whenever you want to create just say, a five petaled flower. You can add though. You know, one to two of the flowers closer to each other as bed, sorry, the petals closer to each other. In this I'm creating more than 56 petals, so I've added four petals closer to each other, as you can see. Now, we will wait for the first layer of these petals to dry completely, and then we will begin adding in the second layer off the transparent petals. So let's wait for this to dry completely. You can see I've given each of the petals of very rough and random shape at the top edge as well, and distinguished each petal from each other as well. So let's wait for this to dry completely. And then we will begin adding in the further details into this and learn how to create the transparent pattern look the same baby or even going to be adding in the leaves after all our flowers dry in. My first layer of petals are completely dried. Now, I will be using the exact same color that we use for the false player in adding in the next layer of petals. Now the next layer of petals will be in-between two pages. So I will begin roughly with the center of one petal and move this petal roughly near to the center of the second petal. Now it may not exactly be the center space. It's just immediately onto the edge that you take it. Now in this one, you can add little darker strokes as well, but make sure not to duck, otherwise you will lose the transparent look of the flowers. So I'm just going to dilute this darker tone that I've added because it's too dark for the transparent pedal to be visible to you early. Now in the same way, between the next two adjacent petals, I'm going to begin adding in the second ill so as to create that transparent petal loop. Now the third petal out here you can see I'm not overlapping the other two petals much for this one. So that is again, all radiation that you can use it. Now in this pattern, it's not necessary to add in the petals or in-between all of the petals that you added in the first layer. Like in this flower, I'm going to add in petals very randomly in-between only few of the petals and not all the sheaf of the flower can be, be according to your placement of the petals. It can be a 6-bit, its level of five petal, full petal, seven pectins. As per your wish and ask for your paper that you're using in the size, the size of the flower that you want to add in. This is how we will be creating the entire pattern for this pattern that we will be doing as the final class project. This is the method for creating in the transparent petal look, we will be going ahead with the first player, then moving and weeping credit to die completely. Moving on to the second layer, once the first layer of petals are completely driving farther leaves as well, we're going to do the same thing. But for the leaves, it won't be waiting for the second layer to dry in. We will be beginning to add him directly so that little green naturally flows into the pink. So far adding the leaves, I'm just going to use my round brush, begin with a pointed tip. Press the belly of the brush until the lens that I'm satisfied with and then just lift it up again for the leaves as well. In the center, you can play with the loose consistency of watercolor and adding the darker strokes. And you can even add in overlapping leaves with the darker color while you're false, we elif is still wet. This is on about the techniques that you need to know for painting this class project for D9. Let's begin painting the final class project in the next lesson. 21. Day 9 - Transparent Flowers - Class Project: Let's begin painting a class project for D9. This is the second last project of this Tandy challenge. So I've got the same carmine color mixed with a little darker pink tone as well. And I'm adding in a lot of water to get it into its transparent consistency. You can see very less pigment and much more of water to get those transparent pattern. Now I will first be creating the first layer of patterns for each of the flowers and spread them randomly onto my paper, then wait for it to dry completely and begin creating in the further details. I have the color ready. You can see so much of the water that I've added in. Now, I will begin adding it onto the paper, creating the pattern. Leaving in spaces in-between, it will begin creating in the first layer of the petals. So you can see on the final class project I'm going ahead with a little smallest size flower because the paper is of a smaller size. And I don't want to fill the entire space, but just one to two of the flowers. I want to add around at least four to five of them. That is the reason I'm going ahead with the smallest size pattern. Now I've done adding in the first three petals for the false flowers. Now, very randomly, I'm going to place the flowers are leaving spaces in-between where we will be adding in the leaves later on. One thing I forgot to discuss with you in the technique section is that adding in the center but space, when we add in the second layer of petals, we will be adding in the buds as bed. Now you can see for the second flower that I've added in the three petals are not equidistant from each other. Of them are closer to each other and one of them is far off. Now, I'm just going to add in little darker depth in the first layer as well in the center space majorly. So it's onto you if you want to add in the darker depth or you want to keep it light itself. In this second flower when you see the two petals that are adjacent to each other. So the rest of the petals will majorly be at the top spaces. And these two petals will not have an overlapping of petal and that's completely okay, adding in a different dimension to the flowers that we are adding in. Now I'm adding in the fourth flower out, you're at the bottom space. Now in-between in the center space, I will add in a very small flower to fill in that extra huge gap that is there, because we won't be adding many leaves to fill that entire space. I've been adding the detail of the flower there as Ben, I will just create a small flavored out your first layer of the petals. Now last year I will be adding one more flag route, the bottom space, again, that will be a little smaller one as compared to the other flowers that we added in. So you can see you can even use smallest size flowers to fill in the spaces in-between. It need not be that each of the flower has to be of the same size and the same rate. Alright, so we are ready with the first layer of the petals. Now we need to wait for these to dry completely and then we will add in the second layer of petals and the other details. My false field of petals are completely dried and you can see how beautifully the color has disposed, giving in those dark patterns in the petals it self giving it to the petals as bell. Now in the same way as we discussed in the technique class, I'm going to begin adding in some rough petals in-between these petals that I've added in, in-between at places I will even be adding little darker depth on the edges and using water I will be blending it into the center space. Make sure to not add too much dark of the petal or effect. Otherwise the base near pebbles will not be visible and you will lose the transparent effect of the petals. So it's very important to understand that you only has to add in little darker highlights on the edges or to the petals if you want to distinguish them or adding in little shadow effect to the petals, do not. It is completely in a dark colored. Otherwise the transparency looked at we are trying to play along in this class, predict will be lost and very difficult to then get to the obese neopentyl. Look. The petals to the top two flowers. Now seeing the, I'm going to quickly keep adding into the rest of the flowers. At the top rights level, you can see I added only two petals at the top side. I did not add the petal in-between those two edges in petals of the phospholipid. So that way we created in a five petaled flower. Now again, as in the technique section as we discussed, you can create the flowers with seven petals, eight petals, or paint much more smaller petals and keep adding in more depth to it. It's absolutely your choice and no compulsion to just follow the number of petals that I have added in your. Now you can see in-between the endomysium adding in some darker depths as well. Now before you are patterns dry completely, you have to add in little buddy effect as well. So my petals are still wet hands. I'm going ahead and painting the second layer of petals onto all of the flowers first, and then I will shift to adding in the bank details. This class project is one of my most favorite class project because of the transparency of the petals that we are playing along with. I absolutely loved how the flowers are looking different from each other. So many color variations, even by just using one color enough lava, if you notice there are so many color variations your despite we using in just one color, given it's the magic of the color and the water content that's creating in this beauty into the pattern. I'm done adding in the petals out. Now while this is still wet, I will pick up the green color and begin adding in the leaf effect. I will use the green color from this palette or maybe or Sapien sort of a color. You can use one light, one dark green tone. So I will quickly remove the green color onto another palette out. You're so that it does not mix in with the pink color, the green color also, we will be playing along in the very liquidy and watery consistency. So I will be taking less of pigment and more of water. Now, you can see I'm dropping so much water as compared to the pigment that I picked up. It says we played with the petals in the loose transport inconsistency, same way with the leaves also, we will be going ahead with the transparent blue. Now, I'm going to begin adding the leaves closer to the petals. Do not worry if little of the green color floats into your pink color. That's perfectly okay creating in the blends. That's exactly what we want. That is the reason we're not waiting for the pink layer of the petals to dry completely. And we are adding in these leaves directly. Now in-between on some of the leaves, if you want, you can keep adding in some darker depths while it is still wet, or you can add in some leaves as well later on. The technique to adding these leaves is quite simple. You just have to begin with appointed stroke and then press the belly of your brush and lift it up once you are satisfied with the height, believe me, using one size brush, you can begin adding the leaf in different sizes, like using this brush of size eight, I can add in leaves in n number of video sizes by just altering the pressure on the brush that I apply while pressing the belly of the brush. Now wherever in if necessary, you can see I'm adding the leaves very randomly in a bunch of two or three maybe depending on the size of your paper, you can even keep altering that. I'm done adding in the leaves. You can see I've added the leaves on the edges as well to fill in the white spaces. Now I have picked up a dark green color and I will begin adding in the next layer of the leaves. Now I'm not going to wait for my first nude of leaves to dry in your as-built. I'm just going to pick up the darker color and begin adding in the leaves on top of them in such a way that the leaves will even have a soft edge, still having the darker tones coming in between. You do not have to wait for the leaves as well to dry in the first layer, to add the leaves off the second layer, like the blending of the darker and the lighter tones create its own magic and BOD into the painting. Very randomly. You can see I've added in the darker depth and it's giving in another touch of color to the entire painting. Those darker strokes are creating so much focus creating in that beautiful look into the painting. Now very randomly at certain places I will just died a few of the darker leaves wherever I feel, I need to add a few more of it. Now lastly, let's begin adding in the Bot Details. So I'm going to add the barbs using in the brown color. I'm just going to pick up the brown color or you can pick up the paints gray color or a sepia color, whichever color you wish to. Just using the tip of my pointed brush, I will begin adding in the Bot details in the center space. You can see how beautifully the bud is popping out. If you want. You could have added this while your petals, we're still way. So my bottom layer flowers are still little way. So you can see the paints gray color will spread a little when you add on it. So you can go ahead with the blend of both, but you just need to be careful that if the petal is true, when do you need to stop? Otherwise, the Payne's gray color will spread in such a way and cover onto the entire petals, which is exactly not what we want it. Now lastly, I'm just going to shift to a smallest size brush. If you want, you can just add little details to your paintings. So rather than shifting to a smaller size brush, I'll rather shift to my golden pen, and I will just add little details in the center of the flowers using in the golden color. Now again, the golden column will not be visible to you on the screen completely. But when I'll give you a closer look, you will be able to see the detail. Do not worry if you do not have this golden pen, it's perfectly okay. You can simply add in the details using our smallest size brush, one tone darker pink color, then the base new color that you have used and begin adding the little center detailed closer to the bud of the flower. I'm done adding this detail onto all of those Legos are not added the detail into each bedded of the flower, rather some of them I have left it blank vary randomly. That is, if we are ready with the class project for D9 as well, we adjust one day to close this ten day challenge. Alright, so let's remove the tape and see your final painting with a little closer view. You always a closer look at the painting. I hope you could see the golden touches that we have given. This was the second last class project of this ten day challenge. I hope you guys enjoyed painting this with me today. I will see you guys into the last class project tomorrow. Thank you so much once again for joining me into the class. 22. Day 10 - Planters - Technique: Hello everyone, Welcome back to day ten of the attendees at class. Today we are going to be painting this beautiful, small, cute little planters. I will guide you through the basic technique that we're using to paint these. We will be using it or shade of brown and maybe a little darker shade of brown or Payne's gray or black if you do not have a darker brown color to add in the darker shadows. And then we will be using in green color for painting the leaves. The leaves look so pretty out here, but they're painted using very single, simple technique. You can use in a combination of different greens or a single green depending on your choice. So let me quickly show you the technique that we will be using for today's class project. For the pots. As I told you, I will be using differentiates us brown. I'm not going to specify the shades that you need to use and you can go ahead and use any shade of brown that is available in your palette. It can be burnt sienna, bond bar raw sienna, or it can even be or CPR or Van **** brown, depending whichever palette you are using it. You just need to make a very small part and then add in too little stands at the bottom. Now you can notice my courtship is very rough. I'm not giving it a much detail look or, or giving it a perfectly edge loop. I'm just going to hit with very simple shapes. Now I'm just showing you the other sheets of the planters that you can use. If you do not want to use the simple, basic shape, your, you can use the bowl-shaped as well and then add in too little. Stands at the bottom. That the kind of the plant or shape that you can use is the simple rectangle planters. So add the topics you'll see the planter is a little wider at the top and goes narrow at the bottom. The second one is a bowl shape, and this one is a simple rectangle G, which is of the same of bread throughout. And then at the bottom to this as when you can add into simple stands. You can even add the planters like this in a perfect square shape. Or you can even go ahead with a U-shaped planter. So they are differentiates of planters that you can completely use and change the shape of the planters in your final class project, it's not compulsory to use any of these specific planters that I have shared in your, you can go ahead and have your own shape of planters and form your own plans. You can even use a hexagon like this and then add in the cool little stands at the bottom to show it as a plan TO. These are a few of the shapes that you can use in which I've discussed, there can be still many more shapes, as I told you, a U-shape or you can even go ahead with a complete circle shape. It's completely your choice. Onto this. Now, I will show you how we are going to be adding in the leaves. The leaves I'm going to be using in my smallest sides, round brush. This is my size two round brush. You can see a plan doesn't quite mini. Make sure you go ahead with a very small sized round brush, maybe a size one or size two. I have picked up two green color and I'm just going to begin adding in five to six as the leaves closer to each other out, you're popping out from the planter. You will see the leaves are quite simple. Now since this paper is a little grass green, it becomes a little difficult to add the leaves out here. I've just picked up more color so that it becomes easier. Now while adding the leaves, you need not wait for the planters to dry completely. If a little green color seeps into the plant does as well, It's completely okay. You can see I'm adding the leaves very simply, nothing much in detail or nothing deeper technique to use it. I just begin with a pointed tip and then press the belly of the brush, adding the leaf and lift it up. Also in case if you want you, as I told you, you can use darker brown sheets or the same brown and a little darker consistency and added little darker debts into the vases at places while the wash is still wet. Bindu a bottom planter is still wet. You can just use the tip of your brush and drop in some darker tones to create Docker depths. Same people, the needs as well. You can use in darker tones and add more depth as well into the leaves. So this is the basic technique that we are going to be using for this class. I will be going ahead with the simple planted out your and maybe a few in-between. I may add simple rectangle planters to break the monotony, but that all depends while painting the final pattern. So this is how we will be painting a pattern for the last day of this class. Let's begin a class project in the next lesson. 23. Day 10 - Planters - Class Project & Thank You: Let's begin with our final class project. I have my paper, Dave, done at the top and bottom so that it does not move in-between the planters I will be using in the burnt umber color out. You can go ahead with any shade of brown as I discussed with you, it need not be the exact same shade as mine. You can use whichever color you want. And for DACA, Deb says when you can form your own darker brown to begin giving into Docker depth. Now I will begin painting the planters first, and then I will begin adding in the leaves altogether. Now the placement of the planters can also be very random. It may not be exactly same as mine. You can follow a completely different pattern. What I am going to be doing is I'm going to add the planters in a line in between leaving gaps and in-between those gaps in the second line, just underneath that, I'm going to add in the second row of the planters. Now the shape of the planters, as I told you, will not be the same for every plan TO. Plus I'm going ahead with very rough edged shape. I will not be giving it an exact or finished edge, a sheep, rather giving it a very loose shift. In the second line, as I told you, the planter will be at a lower height. That is how I'm adding it to. The third planted again will be in line with the first plant that's in the first place. You can see how I'm adding the planters one after the other one is in the first nine, the second one is in the second line. Now fourth one plant that you can see, I've added a little bigger planters compared to the first three ones. As I told you, I will be breaking the monotony and not be taking it to adjust in a simple line, as it should be. Just adding the pandas very randomly at the places you can see on the edges I'm adding in some Geico depths as well. And do every plant as I told you, I'm giving it that little stem stand detail at the bottom spaces. Now quickly in the same way, I'm going to keep adding in the planters in the rest of the space. Now the third row planters will be just in line with the foster plant does as you can see right now, elliptical placement difference may occur at it seems like you can see my second plan TO is elliptical imbalance, but that's okay. We didn't manage it. It's about letting the patterns B3 and flowing in freely. So you do not have to worry much about the placements as best as I told you. Plus your placements can be completely different. You can go with a single line plant or detain or add planters in one row altogether. And then leaving the prevalence-based moving to the next slide as well. It's completely your choice how you wish to go ahead with the placement and creating your own pattern using one seem element. That's the plant goes. Since my paper size is an A6 size, I have been able to add around or five lines off the plant does as you can see in the rest of the top and bottom empty spaces as bell Ivan still be adding in a few more planters. Bye for now, just going to add in these many planters and begin adding in the details with the green color first. And then understand the remaining empty spaces and begin adding in further details. Now shifting to my size two round brush, I will begin adding in the leaf details as I told you. For that I'm using in the green color from this Padlet, It's from the brand White Nights. I'm going to use this color in different color consistency so as to get different tones and values to the leaves as well. For the planters as well, you can see I have used in one single brown color, but I have different color consistency is because of the water content that I have tried to read while adding in the plant. Does Plus in certain plant does you can see on the edges I've added some droplets of the color using the tip of the brush, because of which you have the darker brown depths as bell. Now with this odd round brush, you can see I'm just beginning to add in the leaves out your very simply just using the tip of the brush, adding in very simple bunch of five to six leaves on top of the planters. As I told you, you do not have to body if I lift it off the green color seeps into the brown color planters, it will make it look more beautiful. So you do not have to wait for your planters to dry completely. But any which ways I'm sure by the time that you would have reached the last line of your planters, your first kind of the plant does may have been dried completely. Also makes sure about one thing that if you are watering their planters are where you would not rest your hand onto those planters. The y's the colors we begin to lift. And if you lay your hand anywhere else than the colors will get laid down there as well. This is the last class project of this dandy art therapy class with loose and EPA data watercolor patterns. I hope you enjoyed this class. If you'll notice this pattern and try to take a giveaway from this button. It clearly sees that everybody has a different growth journey. Everybody bloom's differently. Yet everybody's journey is beautiful. The growth and the bloom is beautiful. Never see yourself in comparison with anyone else. Rather, always see your own journey, your own growth, and your own blooms. Now if you notice on the left edges and the right edges, there are little extra whitespaces, which I'm going to quickly fill in with some planters on the edge and then add in the green details to them as well. So you can add in small planters as well to fill in these spaces as you can see, I'm going to add in a few bunch of small planters in the center as well, the alignment where it had gone wrong. So I've been just fill this space as well in some small planters. So this is how you can use a mix and match of different sizes of planters to fill in the spaces that are left after adding in the base layer of the planters. Now to this, I'm adding in the green effect as well. You can see these two planters, I have used the same brown color, but they are in such a dark consistency as compared to the other planters. It's because just of the water content in the brown color that makes it different. Now lastly, using in some Payne's gray color, I'm just going to give him little detail to these planters. I'm just going to add in two straight lines at the bottom of the plant is giving him little design to these planters. Alright, so simply you can just add in or any other design that you want to give into the planters to make them look a little decorative and more creative. Now, again, for this as well, if you are brown colors are little wet, it's completely okay when it will flow a little. Because we are playing with the loose consistency of watercolors plus human. Notice my lines are not exactly, uh, from edge to edge. I'm adding it very roughly to make it look like a lose and repetitive pattern. I'm almost done adding in these lines to all of the planters, as you can see, also have added three mini planters at the bottom most paid area of the paper as well because there was a lot of space out there. When I will remove the masking tape, I will give you a closer view of the small plant, those as well. That is it. We are ready with our pattern for date. Then let's remove the masking tape and see our final painting. I hope all of you enjoyed this trendy of loose watercolor patterns. I'm ready, replayed along with the watercolor without worrying about the results and playing in with the watercolors without any intention of getting a perfect outcome, rather enjoying the process. If you enjoyed this class, makes sure to drop a review and also would love to see your class project into the project section of this class. Thank you so much once again to each one of you for joining me into this class and painting along with me for ten days. I will see you guys into my next Skillshare class soon. Thank you so much once again, to each one of you for joining me.
