Transcripts

1. Welcome To The Class: Hi, This is Anita Srivastava from India. I'm a self-taught artist and author. And alone. If you've taken my previous classes, you must know that I love. And Madani is my most favorite for guide farm, which is originated in India and loved all over the world. That's cities invite. I'm very, very excited about this, another class of mine. Because in this class I will teach you all about modality. Modality is NYC. Any other forecasts vary greatly inspired by nature. So most of the motifs and artworks are about birds and trees and sold out for now. And it's very whimsical and magical. So many creatures are actually not very realistic. They are very, very imaginably and magical. That's the beauty of this folk art form and maneuver. Nice characteristic feature is the linework and the borders, the beak in this art form, no matter how difficult or complex it seems, it's very simple and easy. Trust. With my step-by-step guidance, you will definitely find it. In this class. I will tell you about the brief history of his art form. Then I'll take you to other materials which are needed for this lab and just read the materials are very simple. You can even choose your own mediums and you can change the mediums and there is no fuss about it. Also, I will take you through the process of the linework. The borders are bad. Jones and I will into how do we make different animals and boards and plants and flowers in this form? It's going to be really, really interesting. It's going to be really exciting and not just this. I will also take you through the process of making three gorgeous artwork, which are going to be your class projects. So if all this sounds interesting to you, meet me in the next lesson, where we will start the beautiful journey of ads. 2. Madhubani Materials: Before we discuss the materials we are going to use in this class, let me tell you originally what all people used to make my Duany art. For the surface, it was mainly done on the walls, especially the mud coated walls of the village of Motwani and be heard in India. So vaults and fabric were the main surfaces for this ad. And they used to give the background a code of a study made from cow dung, mud, and water. For the colors they use, to use all organic colors made from the sorbed flower petals or the powdered rock stone like limestone or red stone. And many other things like goal and Talmudic. And for the tools they use to make brushes and depends using the feather quill or bamboo sticks. But here we are not going to do all of that. We're going to simplify it. And for the surface, we are going to use people. So 200 GSM or more than that will be good enough for drawing. Leaving need pencil, fine liners, sketch pens, and for coloring. You can use anything from brush pens, acrylic, gouache, or watercolor. And according to the medium you choose, you will need water. Brushes, rough cloth. And to help us make things easier for us, we will use rulers skill, compass, and for the warm-up practice, we will be using ordinary stretch book. Grab all your supplies, and meet me in the next lesson. 3. Practice Line Forms: Welcome back guys. Let's begin with some practice. And it will also help your hand to become three with the work we're going to do later in this class. For the practice, I am taking this ordinary sketchbook. Either be using my microns, the fine liners, you can use pencil. So I've got different colors of my songs and I've got black. You can obviously use fences if you're not so confident about it. And I will also be using these brush pens or coloring. Let's begin. First or fourth. For the practice. I suggest to you do practice some lines. As you notice. He enrolls a lot of line work. Fine line will entropies and very elaborate. Before that you need your wrist and you need this movement. This practice is going to help you warm up. First of all, you have to practice drawing straight lines. Straight lines, straight lines, straight lines. Without using the escape. You can obviously use the scale, all the tiny, but it's better if you practice drawing the line without using a scale. Alright, so here's horizontal straight line. Then I like you to practice drawing vertical lines. If you notice what I'm seeing, I'm not moving my wrist to draw a line or a horizontal or vertical. I am I am moving my shoulder and my elbow. Right. I'm willing my handbag that I'm pushing stack to the right or to the left. You see which direction is comfortable to you. You want to draw a line like this. For me, I'm more comfortable like that. Let's do right. So whichever direction you are, comfortability sectors and for vertical lines, see if you are comfortable. Dr. Bottom audio reconstitute with water drops. Did you ever read your account? It just practice hundreds and hundreds of horizontal and vertical lines to make your hand. Once you've done this. This is exercise number one, and this is exercise number two. Once you've done this exercise, we'll be drawing draw the curved lines. And again here also, I'm not moving just my wrist. I am taking my hand there Pseudo. The movement from the elbow is taking place here like that. If you notice, my wrist is not moving. My hand is moving from the elbow and from the shoulder. Whatever happens, keep your shoulders relaxed. If you build tension in your shoulders, you will get tired very quickly. This is the coding because I didn't have to do exercise. I want you to set this zigzag lines. Try to keep the peaks at the same height and try to give the values also deep squats like the same height. It's going in a straight line and more or less similar to each other. Not exactly the same, but they are, there is no much difference. Practice making this exactly like this. Small, right? This is the full data save. Now, make sure you here on this page so you can be there for you at one-page. Fifth one is ready to be semi circles connected Samy of goods. In this, my wrist is moving like that. These you have to practice. Now. It's here. It's one-page exercise 12345. You can take a screenshot for your reference. And let's practice the semi circles here. What do we have to do it? This is very important. All these line forms are very important when you do one-to-many. In fact, these forms are important in any doodle art. If you do, then downward you do Mandela or any line. Line forms are really good and important to practice. This exercise is not only help you in Macedonia, It's really help you in any kind of do. The fact is these, and I'll see you in the next lesson. 4. Practice Double Lines: Welcome back. Now since we have factors, these lines, let us move on to the next lesson. That is w. All right, so this is the unique feature of modal eniac, as I do with you before in the previous videos. Street line battle align during. Keep the distance as minimum as possible. Distance between the two lines and keep them, you need a stem to keep them as badly as possible, alright? And you have to do it freehand. I encourage you to practice doing this free hand. Of course, if you have so much trouble, you can use a skill. But my suggestion, try doing it for. So this is the first lesson for today. Try drawing lines, double lines. Students are doing these lines. On the right. You see the distance between these two is very less. Number two, lines, w, w, w, w vertical. Mix more lines. You don't have to cover the entire page for doctors do this, but venue practice this you can easily draw. Another, can also see this, this and this. It's an online. I drew it in three parts, but that's okay. Practice. Vertical double lines. Lines what the governor, then again, you get the tray. You're going to have to practice. This is a little tricky. You need to go slow with this one because you have the first Gov I drew. But for the second girl, I am managing the distance between the two at every point. And that's why I went slow. And it's okay to take your time and Google slope. So this is the thing you have to practice. Then. Fourth one is the zigzag line, the triangles. And now this is also a bit tricky. Here. We won't go bad in the lines. We will just do this. This, this one model that you can also practice, the upside down zigzag lines. This is the fourth one. Now let's move on to the fifth. Practice. Now. The semicircle lines endergonic. Dave, semi soccer's here also. You need to go slow. Let's do upside down. This is the common mistake that takes place. Then be working on this kind of see that this semicircle became small and from here everything went wrong. Let's do it correctly one more time. If you notice, when I'm doing the inner, the beaks, deeper or higher, peaks at higher. This one, when I'm doing the inner depths, deeper, you see this, it's going down, down, down. This is the fifth one. And for the sixth one, I am taking this one step further. For this, what do you have to practice is draw a horizontal line. Another what is underlying these two lines? Vertical lines, right? Try to keep the distance between the two lines as equal as possible. This factors these vertical lines, so many of them close to each other and then practice slanting lines, lines close to each other. This I and I do draw down two up. You can draw it up to down through practice this way. Opposite tree. Right? Practice this. These three V's of lanes, so many lanes close to each other. Practice this. Next it, That's it for this lesson. Practice these six exercises I have suggested, and when you are done and comfortable. But these next lesson. 5. Border Patterns 1: Now, moving on to the broader patterns, borders are very, very important. I will be sharing some basic broader patterns. I've already divided my paper in the box. It was an columns. Here, as you see, I have made double line and I've left some space and made another double line to this one is going to be one border. And this one is moving under border. And on the other side also in trying different borders on right? So if you want, you can already watch the video and divide your page like this. What if you wanted to just go on along with me? You can just draw one border, the space for one border at the same day and do the filling. B2b suits you. Let's move on. The very first, Bordeaux is going to be factors. I told you. This one. This one, this is one goiter itself, Right? The bud song. Birds today are pretty Sharpie. Just to draw some vertical lines to each other. Angle on filling this entire window. This is the most basic border off my Danny. It's used in different paintings and they got buildings and smaller buildings anywhere you can use this. You can decrease the thickness. You can make it half, right? That's totally up to you. This is one border stinking, be slanting lines that as you keep doing it, tried to keep the distance between the lines. Seem try to give them as closer to each other as possible. There you fill this up and it becomes unmoored water. I am leaving this space for you because I'm going to upload this cheap or in the resource and you can fill it up on your own and that will become your practice sheet. Alright, so I'm not filling the entire border, I'm just showing the process and leaving this space for you to fill in. Now the next Bordeaux is the opposite slanting lines. I find these lines difficult to control. Mode comfortable in these happens on the day. This is another border. Now. There's one more Bordeaux. Alright. Let's do the line. You have to take it further in. This sheet is going to be in the resource like that. Then you meet smallest one leaves, that leaves the other side. This can go on. Now that and in a final, this is also a very pretty and beautiful border. When it's used the buildings. This is fine. Bordeaux. Let's move on to the other one. That zigzag lines this in the practice. Then you give it. The upper lid. You can leave it like that. What you can do. You can. For this, I'm using the brush pens. You can also use sketch pen or marker. What do you can even use watercolors. You can give seen color to all three, all the triangles. Or you can get a combination of two or three colors once it's ready, really accepted in many paintings type or they're very vibrant and colorful. So don't hesitate using the colors. This is another one. Now, what we can do is there can be an oil in a divorce. This everybody, I'm telling you, you can alternate it in your own style because it's not possibility to each and every border in one class or in any glasses because, because it's your hot, the art comes from the heart. Every person will have a different approach when it comes to listen to your heart. Experiment with the style and create your own raspberries, all the templates I'm giving. If you're here in our next change, your burner. You can even Gallo this alphabet and fitting lines. And this is also a very nice body issue and a very nice, very widely used. I have left some space for you to practice. Now, there's one more very interesting thing with this Rydberg. Me, the zigzag line like that. And we give it. Instead of filling it with colors. What we can do is we can fill this spot color of the lines. For this step, you can use a sketch failures. Right? Now. Let's do you can fill this spot. Different colors. This also become a very pretty broader. Now you, instead of the vertical lines you can do is on onto lines in the lower one and slanting lines on the upper part. You can do as many variations as you like. Try, experiment, and create your own version of these waters. Now let's move on to the next one and let's do the same. Isa can treat lines like this. Now, the option is, you can fill this with color. Gullah. There is an option you can just do. Whichever way you like, you can go about it. Me, Dr. underlines here. Whatever way you like, you can do that. Now. Another design for them. Semi-solid. This time I'm doing the double line. Black. Fill this. You can do it other colors. I like this design with black. You can use red, green, blue. Haven't used blue yet. You had only using. Next we will use blue. This is neither design you can do, leave the upper part empty like that, or you can do this in the depths. This is another Verdi, pretty broad and very widely used. This one is mostly used for the smallest pieces. For the smallest pieces, even this order is used very widely, its variation of this one of leap. And show you again here we will do the double line on top. You see, I'm trying to keep it as close to one as possible and I'm trying to keep it similar cases and again, it just became this fill this up, sit together. These borders, these two mainly used in who denounced the data element of any that they use. Black. The black color. Again, you can leave it like that. Here also you can choose to me. Now, let's move onto the next lesson. 6. Border Patterns 2: Let's do yet another simply border. So I'm making up a leaf shape and I'm keeping distance between the two leaves. Now, this one has become a little closer so you can measure the distance and meet equidistant dots and then make this black disc upside down. Leaves. Wouldn't begin to it divided divided on the leaves that do the ribs on one side and the one side empty. This also becomes a very nice border. You want, you can color the leaves or you can just leave it up to you. Now, next me, the semicircle gov hostilely, the border, and then do the upside down. Once. Then what you have to do is join the ends like that. With the gauze. You have these lavas, know, you can choose to color them in the middle. You can do this one. Now, if you wanted to keep it very, very simple, you can just choose to give, let me show that pencil. Just choose to give dots. Here. You can do this with black. What you can do is use this with horizontal lines. This pod with vertical lines. You can do this. I really sure you're dumb example of this on, so there are two ways you can follow this way or you can call it that. For this one. What I'm going to do is I'm going to me slanting curve. Then I moved to join it like that. Now, make marks at a greater distance back this, I'm not doing that, but meet them equi distinct for that and measure it with this heel and MEEP doors. Denied it. And what you can do is you can color the background light on what you can do is give this double negatives piece of beautiful Florida. And after this, you can also make dots to fill the space. Now let's move on to this. Let's go slightly different. So practice this. Sleeping. Sleeping. Sleeping is try to make them equally and tried to meet them. Because the next quarter is going to be like that. Let's meet the sleeping in the same order. Then. Remains bottom of the body. The lines med Skylar that WE DO. This is one-off, my favorite. This is another one. Lets me upside down, U double line. Here. Again. Let's fill this with vertical lines. This is also a very widely used border. You can also give goods. Here. Lets me see me. Next. Give them double lane. Meet another thing he said. Let's go over the inner one. You can use to be three fellows in combination. For every water. I'm not using it. Just using single, but you can use what? You fill in this spot with. Nine studies I made you practice these vertical lines. Lines because these lines are the sole of my dwelling. No matter what your painting, what you are drawing, these lines have to be there. So this, if you want to encounter the backdrop, what if we wanted to just leave it? Now for the next one? This semicircle, the same domain leaf on a Friday and they'd be having this meek equidistant and scaring them. I know all of it. That's another one. Now. Let's move on to the other one. For that. Give them the email. Let's make another global war. He'll give died or whatever. Then on that knee, these buttons inside here, you can choose to just scanner or you can choose to keep it loose. This clade with low degree lines give double-declining. Do these pages. Let's fill this out that for this one here. Let's meet small curve. Let's meet next week of vigorous. Make more veterans. This a bit. Giving a double line to this one. Then one bit better. You can fill the DI water, but these flavors futures you can give Ds also gardner them outside. You can fill the border. Many of these flowers. You can fill the board. These flowers up to you to where you issue. The same problem. Finally, let's me very different. Let's meet these curves. What we're going to do is get it back. And do you have a fish? This fish. To weaken this. We will be learning to draw fish separately. You can color them inside. You can either just draw, you can fill it out. You can do mesh. You can do this. So up to you on this, or do you want this, or do you want this week in New York? Bordeaux? I definitely haven't. Friendly borders for your practice. Practice these and try to meet your own valuations of these waters. I will meet you in the next lesson. 7. Practicing Flowers: Welcome back. Now let's move on to learn how he made different types of flowers and metal venue. Rather than a full God. There are so many imaginary and whimsical flowers and forms of animals that we draw and paint. There can be endless number of flowers that we can make in modern style here I'm going to show you a few of them. First of all, let's start with the simplest one. And for that, we make a circle like this. Gave it a double line. That we do small, small petals like this. Now if you want, you can crosshatch the center part. Double-declining. Do the badges. This kind of Florida is widely used when we make trees. On the branches of trees, we make these flowers. This is one. Secondly, meek, tiny circle. Hot. We go on making the heart sheep. Again. We give it a double outline. Like so. We filled up outline. So many lines. You fill it with the linework. Alright, so this is another type of Flavel. Very simple level is also meet like that. This is the twig. Suppose these are the leaves and we just make us a good inside it. We make another circle. We fill this spot with small, small lines. This is also another way of depicting flowers in my style. Now, let's see another style. Here. This is like that. Then you decorate it. Whatever way you like to decorate it. It depends on you how you want to decorate it. This is the basic shape of the flower. And after that, you can decorate it in whatever way you like to. Here's another Flavel. Know me. Leave via damage more. Beta's. This is a leaf sheep complete leadership. And then we add a dancing few petals. So it's simplistic. Lotus give it a double outline. Like so. This is another one. It's kind of a lotus, but I will show you better and very pretty Lotus later on. Now. Another one. Now you can leave this as a problem. This itself is a flower, you give it a double outline, and this becomes a flower. Now what I am going to do is a different thing. Join these, fill this spot with small like that. I dab the outline. You have. Another flower. If you want, you can give stem-like structure on top. This is another very, very folk style. Now let's move on to another one. Here. Another extension of this level. This is a very pretty flower. This is also very widely used in different Madu bunny illustrations. This, and now what I will do is I've in this same TO, I will make up longer petal. On both the sides. I will attach these pointy petals that this spot also a double outline. He'll, since it's a big lava, Let's do one more thing. Alternatively, lines. Then you decorate it. Whatever we would like to decorate it. Depends on you, how you want to decorate it. This is the basic shape of the flower. And after that, you can decorate it in whatever way you like to fill this Bartlett small dots and we can fill this bug but the lines there, another global. We can also fill this alternatively bit, small dots. Now, let's try and make a marigold. For that. I'm making this semicircle, semi oval. On top. I'm giving a semicircle. Crosshatching. I'm feeling it. These elongated rehab. Maddie Good. Comes to double outline and they've eagle. Now. Let's see how we can make the lotus. The lotus make a dot over here and straight below that make another dog. This teardrop shape. Then make three pointy. On the, on one side. Three more pointy petals on the other side. Now have to give double outline. These. I'm using sign up in here because this piece is very small. If I use a bigger ballpoint, it will. Space won't be there. Okay? Now from here, make another teardrop. This would be a little smaller. I make another teardrop on one side and make another one on the other side. If you want, you can make one mode shape petal over here and over here. What I would like to do is I will guard like that and I will attach it. Again. I've got a blank that I would like to watch it back. We have lotus. So these are nine types of flowers be widely find in Bodoni style paintings. Whereas there can be many other styles of Madaba, any flowers. You can explore that and as you drag this further. Now let's move on to the next lesson. 8. Practicing Leaves: Now let's move on to the next. Believes. The mean. Simple leaves. Like that. Sometimes the leaves or even left blank only and we fill color inside it. Another video of drawing leaf is the largest. Divide the center. But we also give ribs on one side and keep the other side empty. Another way of drawing leaves is there we completely fill it realistically like that. The Jews, the style depending on how interrogate and how detailed our work is. So these are the smaller leaves. Then we have some grass blades. Depict grass blades like this. These are sometimes used as longer leaves also where we attach flowers like these levels or these flowers to the tip of the blade only. Sometimes they are leaves of the plants, sometimes they are depicted as grass. Now, another variation of this kind of grass is we don't divide it from the same, do we just make these lines? Another way of depicting grass is like this. This is generally done. Show the ground when we make some animals or when we make human figure and we have to show the ground below them, then we make grass like this. But sometimes even voter is made like this. This is also grass. Sometimes even this is grass that you fill the entire ground on which the human or animal characters are stood. Such button. And this is also considered as grass. Again, like flowers, they can be endless number of ways we can depict the leaves also. But these are the few basic ones. And you can practice these and master these. You can depict these in any art form. So now let's quickly paint the flowers also. Again, this sheet is also going to be there in the resource, so you can have it, you can practice. This is a very basic way by which we can plow. Was that this, the moment I added the color, it all became difficult. Isn't it? That and let's have a combination of orange and yellow over here. Let's do think I am painting very fast. That's why it's gray out. The boundaries. Do that. These Take your time. Don't let it go out of the box. I'm just trying to do it really fast. That the video doesn't become very lonely and boring. Guy like this. Here we have these beautiful flowers for the leaves. I'm going to use just one color quickly. All of them that light green. Here we can paint like this. Also, paint one part and leave the other part empty. All the weekend. Paint. One more variation of the grass can be like this. He failed one part with the lines and we leave a lot of Part D and fill it with color. So we can do that. Or as I told you, this formation is also used as Bordeaux when we make, when we make fish. There, we color it red, blue, and North width. And when we color it green, then it's all right. There. We have our beautiful sheet. Practice these, and see me in the next lesson. 9. Practicing Trees & Plants: So till now we have practiced the line forms. We have got this double lining, we have practiced border patterns. Then we have practiced flowers and leaves are right. Now, let's move on to join some trees and plants. So the first one in this, there'll be a simpler one. As we know, as I have already told you that Madani revolves around the knee joint and the Tree of Life concept. So there are a lot of trees depicted in Madu, any BDS. So let's start with a simpler one. We just make a trunk like that. Or you can give it initiate, decode branches, single lane balance sheets. The fill them. We can fill it with flavors or weekend, use a mixture of flowers and leaves. Me up to, here I go again, my swiftly bomb. I didn't have to use the flush like that. Another big drawing trees is, go for it. I take those stem majors to move forward. Single line branches like that. And again, we fill this up with leaves, whichever the empty leaves, leaves divided in just two halves leaves. So many ribs. Ribs on the one side. Maybe habit. Another one is Nika street double. This definite branches. Once he had this structure, we fill it up with leaves and lovers like that. You can make the flowers and bees on either side. And this is how he decreed the stem of the tree, gave it a name. That you can fill it up with flowers and leaves. And there you have another real meetings are. Now in this style. We can go forward, taken branches night that we can have a very whimsical BSP tree got, Thank you again, Villanova, but leaves and flowers. And then God dealt with flowers. As I do live, flowers can be different, different ways. So this is another tree. Sometimes be used, lead to fill in the background. And this is also considered as a blonde or a team. Then fill them up with flowers. We can also just have these long needs and choose not to have any others smaller leaves and just make flowers, may know smaller leaves, just the pharmas. That this is also another view of the tree. And there are many other bees on, right? It all depends on how you dig it forward. Here. This is what we have to learn in this lesson. So dark this way, the trees in my style. And I will see you in next lesson. 10. Practicing Fish: Welcome back. Let's learn how to make a beautiful mother when he is considered to be issues. So symbol or animals that have been widely used in business and ladies and even in borders. So let's see how many different guides, how we can see a couple of them. This one goes like that. That's the basic staples. We add. I'm going to go back. So basically this shape, your way. That's one type of fish. One. Jellyfish. For this one as decoration. Yeah. Basically this is the shape. You can decorate it, your waist. Now, let's move on to another very cute density fish. Ready some glutamate. Sometimes even decorate the page. Size. Flowers or left side. Now, let's move on to another. Make mistakes like this. Just on the door and do a bad job. Just because of one mistake. It is a blend. There's another one. All these fish. You can keep the outline. Do you think do this? All the fishes, all the styles everywhere. So this is how we make beautiful faces in my 20s death. Now let me show you different types of fish paintings with examples. So it's a very good example of different types of fish made in Modigliani sides. I will show you more examples. Here. As you see, the fish is used and you see the longer same dire body. That's kind of the waters to see me, or a complete painting of fish in the morning. You see different gestures, office. Here. This is another way of using fish meal. This is my surface pattern or a background or a border, which is going to be the second project. 11. Practicing Birds: Welcome back. Now it's time to learn about the buds in mud bunny style, how we draw them. As forgot. Mother bunny is very much inspired by nature. And along with flowers and trees and animals, birds are also very important part of my job in painting. So let's see how we make some easy birds in by the bunny style. Here we start with a small circle for the head, and we make a pointy curved bean shaped for the body. A small leaf-like beak. And a D. That's the basic structure, basic body structure of a bird in my learning style or in any style. And after this, we just decorate it. It's similar to what we practiced in model bony fishes. So we start with a double-blind border and then we decorate. But fit line work. Now let's make one of the wings, since the bird is sideways, so only one wing will be neat. And finally, the decorative patterns, the line work. There's no right way or wrong way of decorating a motif and Bodoni style. Modigliani paintings can be as difficult as you make them, or as easy and simple as you keep them. So it's totally up to you what you want to do with your mother. Many paintings. Now you can leave the double outline hazardous or you can fill it with Catch Nice work. Now let's move on to the second bird. And this one is my favorite. We start with two small circles. And these are not the heads. These are going to be the big eyes of this. But I think you understood what I'm making. Just keep watching and follow along. Here comes a small pointy beak below the goggle like big eyes. The head and pointy ear like structure like so or hold like structure. And it always shaped body. I got two small W shaped feet. At the bottom of the body. And now we make the wings. Like so. I want to make partly closed eyes for my sleepy. I really love it. And I'm filling the eyelids with the catch any lines. And there are the eyeballs. Now, let's decorate Mr. Ali. And again, it's up to you whether you want to keep it very, very intricate and detailed, or you want to keep it simple and that it's ready. You have to just fail the other wing also in the same way you failed the first string. And here's a tweak on ****** sitting. I am not giving double outline. So if you want, you can give it, but it's fine. Now, let's move on to the other board. It's fun is going to be dreamy and more whimsical. So we start with a spiral like this. Make a triangle shaped beak. And he'll be me, a beautiful human-like I like. So now this board is captured in the middle of movement. So here's the vein. One of them. I believe this board is either going to fly away or just coming down and sitting. And the other wing like that. And here's the go VDD, body, like so. And there comes up and beautiful. The basic body shape is ready. Now we have to fill in the design and patterns to decorate it. It is also gives some headgear to this bird. And now the Declaration, which is entirely up to you how you want to do it. I'm only giving you an idea of simply decorating these creatures. Here I have divided the body of the bird in different parts, horizontal part, and I'm going to fill crisscross lines and a row of dots in these parts. Alternatively, like guns, dead. Now, I'm pretty much happy with this, so let's stop here. And of course you can do the double outline. That's completely up to you. Let's move on to the next board and see how we can make it. Showed I'm making another boat who's flying. I'm not decorating this one. I'm leaving that part for you and your imagination. Let's move on to another one. And this one is going to be very exotic bird like that. We create the wings of this board. And that's going to be the body. It's flying and it's going to put you on something. The legs. And finally the head. It's like you can make any bird or any animal in a folk style by just capturing the overall shape of that animal or bird in a flow whimsical way. And it becomes a folk style or whimsical style bird or animal. Here, Let's see how we can make peacock in by the bunny style. Though there are so many styles, we can make a peacock or an hour. Depending on their posture, how they are facing the audience, how they are sitting or standing. So they can be sideways or Fran, frontal, or even facing us via keeping the back towards us, like this one here, peacock there. These are the basic ways we can paint the birds and not many side. And as you see after decorating and coloring them, they look so beautiful and gorgeous. All the fauna and flora we have practiced in this course can be used in your future projects. Here's an example of the peacock. It's a very famous by the bunny peacock motif, world-famous motif. So use these motifs in your future projects also and keep practicing. And I'll see you in the next lesson where we will move on to the final projects. 12. Styles Of Madhubani: Welcome back. Before we move forward, let's discuss the different styles of Madani paintings. And for that, I will take example of the speech which I have illustrated in three different styles. So I have illustrated the same motif of a fish in three different styles of painting. First one is that cartoony style. It's characterized by the extensive use of fine lines. The fine line work is there in the background as well as on the subject. We don't really leave any space blank in catch the side. Whereas the Bernie style is characterized by the use of vibrant colors, solid color backgrounds, and we use colors in the subject also be used the line work in Bernie style as well because mother bunny is all about It's linework, but not as much as we do in the cartoony style. So we limit the line work to the borders and some patterns and the double outlines. Right? So this is bernie style. And the third one is the Golden. Our style. Go dinner. In Hindi means tattoo. This artwork is originated from a data form, but it's not limited to only tattoos. It's very widely used in different merchandisers, walmart, etc. It's characterized by the bold and take out lines. Instead of the double outline, we mainly use bold black outlines for this. And it's also characterized by the use of five primary colors. Three primary colors. The concentric circles and rows of fauna and flora. The animals and flowers are used in rows and concentric circles. These are the three main styles of Modigliani painting, which we are going to focus on in this class. Apart from these, there are other styles also. We will talk about them in this video, but we won't be practicing them in this course. So the first one is Coburn style, which is mainly used to decorate the walls of the rooms of newlyweds. So it's full of the symbols of love and union and togetherness. The deities who are blessing the new couple does last one is tantric style, and it's very, very religious and spiritual at work. So it's full of the folklore, mythical stories that they tease, the spiritual symbols, etc. All these styles are very worst, especially the koba style and tantric style are very vast that they require whole class dedicated to each word of them. Here, we will only be focusing on catching a bunny and go denial styles. I will see you in the next lesson where we will start practicing. 13. Katchni Project Sketch: Welcome back guys. This is the time for our very first class project. We have practiced making all the flowers and plants, and fishes and birds. And finally, we have arrived the first-class project, which is going to be a cartoony styles floral motif. So first of all, we will make the basic pencil sketch. And for that, we need an A4 size paper. Watercolor paper will be good. That a compass, a pensive, rulers, eraser, fine liner markers, and some sketch pins. Black, red, and green will be perfect. So grab your supplies and let's start making it. For the paper. I will suggest you go for a smooth finish paper. So whether it's a card stock or a watercolor paper, paper should be thick but smooth because we are going to be using fine liner markers and sketch pens and it's easier to use them on a smooth finish paper. So first, I will start with the border. This, we have to first decide how much space we want to leave, a rounded or motif. It gives a nice framing to the painting. So with the help of a ruler skills, you just decide that distance from the edge of the paper and go for a pencil and draw a straight line. Like so. Repeat this step on all four sides. And at any point, if you find the video too fast, was it and finish your steps and then unpause it and move forward. Now, after drawing the empty space around the motif, it's time to draw the inner product. So for that, again, the thickness of the border. And there you see Bordeaux. And there's a glue on my window. Now I'm outlining this border with fine liner marker. Recording a video in the daytime in India is very, very difficult with a lot of people come, a lot of vehicles and they keep moving about roads the whole day and sometimes there's even some construction work going on. So it's never ever silent in the daytime. It's only the nighttime when I can find some peace and quiet to record the videos. And I right now, I'm recording in the day. So a lot of retakes. Where do you live? I would love to know more about you. You've taken my class and I'm really thankful to that. And I'd really love to connect with all the artists in the world. It's great to connect with people around the world. And with online sessions, this has become very easy nowadays to connect with other adults around the world. So do let me know in the discussion, where are you from? I would love to know that for here we have made the border. And now at this point, I am taking my center for that. I am measuring the body of the border and I did good center. And from here I'm just making a circle with the help of my compass like that. And add the center of the circle, I will draw a cross like that. Small cross. The lines all the way to the circumference. Just keep them small. And now we've got these 490 degree angles. We'll have to intersect them to get smaller angles. Night that shell have to place this hanky because my hands are sweating and now I zoomed in so you can see it properly from here. I am going to set this up like that, but with a curvy line, not intersect the circle, sorry, intersect. Angles, right angles are 90 degree angles like that with curvy lines, so no skill is required. And with another curvy line, I will just attach both the tips of these curvy lines, slanting curvy lines like that. That I'll do that on the other side also. Like so. Basically these two ginkgo leaves, shaved structures are going to be our two flowers. The main center of attraction of this motif. So here I start decorating them. I request you to follow along. Let's now make the long central petal like that. And following the curvature of the outer circle, We'll move on making the other petals. But as we move towards the corners, the petals will be becoming smaller. And the final battle, there'll be a little pointy like that. So five petals on the one side of the central. Same day if he will make five more petals on the other side of the central bank. Now, let's repeat the same process on the other level. Also. We have both our flowers. Now, let's make some whimsical and you connect them with the leaves and make a painting more magical. Like that. I think this one looks a little out of proportion. Let's fix it. Again. That, yes, this is good to go. Now, I am making secondary stems, which will cover the rest of the parts of the paper. Like that. There is no set principle for doing this. I'm only following my instinct. If you want to change the layout of the stems or secondary stamps, you can surely do that. If you're having problems following alone. The final sketch will be uploaded in the resource. You can get it from there and copy it or transfer it to your canvas or a paper, whatever you're using. They making stems cross one. Right on top. I'm trying to make this figure of eight. Just to give the painting a little more interests. Like so. You can obviously make the curves as per your liking and different from what I am doing here. Now it's time to make another set of flowers, just like the ones we made earlier. But this time I am not taking any measurements. I am not using the compass. I'm just going instinctively and making similar flowers. The reason behind this is that the center of attraction, the focal point of the painting is previously made flowers are, and rest of the flowers, even if they are Jews similar to look the same to the viewer. You have to just give an impression of the same flowers and you don't have to be better themselves, making them. And the viewer will perceive that these are the same flowers only. Be completely different or completely off. Well, but little bit of imperfection not make any difference. And here I am making two more stems because I found this area to be empty. And moreover, right now we're just making pencil sketch. So we can draw the flowers roughly, just to know the place where we have to finally draw them with a fine liner markers. That is another reason why we can just meet these numbers. Anyhow. Just following the instinct. There, let me nuts travel. We are almost done. And this is the last flower off the painting. It's almost like the previous ones. It's fix it a little bit. As I said, you don't have to worry too much about these numbers. They have to just be similar to the ones here in the center. If you look at the total, overall composition, you know that all the other elements are directing the eyes of the viewer to this point. So that's the focal point of the painting. And this is the basic outline. I will see you in the next lesson. 14. Katchni Project Detailing: Welcome back. I hope you've got your pencil sketch ready. Now it's time to outline the entire thing with the help of a fine liner marker. So let's do that. The marker I'm using here is number five. You can even use number eight. But since I will be using black sketch pen also, so I don't want to keep these lines a bit too thick. So five is just fine for me. Using different tip sizes always create interest in a painting or an artwork. That's exactly what I'm aiming for. Right now. I'm only outlining the joint we have made together. There's no much of technique in this, so that's why I'm taking time lapses. If you want, you can pause the video and complete this step. After I'm done outlining with the fine liner market, I am removing all the pencil marks. And now I am starting with the double outline for the stems. And it's an easy step. The only point you have to take care of while doing this is which stem is overlapping, which one? Don't go crisscrossing all the lines. Just make sure one stem is on top of each other and you don't have to follow the same steps. Stem being up and the same stem being download. Any stem can be any stains. Stem can be down. That's okay. But at the point where they meet or intersect there, you have to take care that you are not crisscrossing the lines or four lines. Just take care of that and you will be done. And here I am double outlining the flowers now. Have practiced this before. So it's going to be very easy and simple. I am repeating this step and all the flowers night that Dan did this step. Now let us move on to making leaves on both sides of this stems all the way from down to the tip of the this whimsical gland. And my friendly little crew is back again saying hello to you. There's a saying in Hindi, has taken a joke come, which I will attach. It means whatever you do with a cheerful mood and light mood and happily. It's good. Always keep your mood cheerful and don't be stressed about the results. Just trust the process and follow along, go with the flow. And something good only will come out of it. And in case you think that it's not what you expected or you're not happy with the result. So relaxed. That's not the end of the life my friend. You can always just leave this one. The thing you're working on and start a fresh. Take it as you're learning and move ahead with a better plan. And there's no point in stressing over something which is not in your control. What we can control is the process. We can't control the results because result is controlled by many other factors, apart from you and me. So it's not worth to take all the stress about something which is not in our control. Anded with all the chitchatting, We are now done with the outlining and making the leaves. And here, at this point, I feel this area looks a bit too empty. So I'm just adding some fillers to this part. You can skip this step if you want. And now let's fill in some finer details for that, you can take a fine tip, like a final tip mock-up there. Now let's fill in those catchy me, linework all along the stems, like so. This line work can also hide the imperfections. If you've accidentally made the stems crisscross, this line work can even hide that. So you can choose to do that or you can choose to keep your stems just double outline. But I would suggest because this is a Cassini project, so I suggest you do that. And here we are decorating the flowers. Now it's time to add some colors, so I will start with red. You can choose to use colorful markers, fine liner markers only. But I'm using this catchment, which read, I will be filling in the flowers with the line work. And I'll be using green for the leaves. Isn't that? So why am I saying that? Now the first power is finished and see how beautiful it looks already. In the same vein, we are going to finish on the flowers like that. Here's another one, moving on to the next. Dead. Now, the next one. You might feel your wrist or hand tired by now because a lot of line work has happened. So keep moving your wrist, rotating it like that to relieve the stress and tension. Also, try not to smudge the color because these color pens are regular then only true for smudge proof. So let them dry and be careful you don't smudge it with your hand. And then we move on to the next flower. You can also slow the video down if you want. That option is there. And if you feel really tired, you can just leave the video here. I stop it and come back after some time and finished the project. There's no hurry. So they're all the flowers are done. Now, it's time for the leaves fall. I'm outlining the leaves with black sketchpad. Give them more definition. And there it's all done and I don't be like adding any other color to it. It's beautiful as it is. So let's move on to the border and decorate it. I'm keeping the border very simple. You can choose any border from the ones we practiced. We've got the template. But I personally like the simpler ones. Or you can come up with your own idea for the border better. I would love to see that. And if you are going ahead with the one I am making, follow along. The outline is ready. It's time to fill in the fine line work. Now for these triangles, I'm going to alternate the red and black colors. Repeat this step on the entire bottom. Like so. And now the very final step, it's done, but I think some lines over here need definition. That's what I'm doing now. Sketchpad. I'll do the same with the border lines like that. And there we are done with our very first class project. Now DKA break, relax, and come back in the next lesson where we will make another class project. 15. Bharni Project Sketching: Welcome back. It's time for our second class project, which is this gorgeous painting. And this one is my most favorite of all three paintings. So here are the supplies. The usual ones, paper, rulers gains, fine liner, markers, pencil, eraser, and what's added here. So instead of the sketch pens, I am now going to use watercolors. So you can use the sketch pins or brush markers, watercolor, brush pens, anything you would like. But I will be using this basic watercolor palette, bison alias. And if you're using watercolor, you can use any brand. We're just going to be needing some primary colors, and of course, a jar of water, clean water. Now let's begin with a border. So I'm mocking the outside area. And now the inner border step is just like the previous project. Now I'm going to copy this motif on my paper. And for that, I'm going to divide my people in three equal parts. And once that's done, I will draw three fishes in each part. And I'm going to speed up the drying process because we have already practiced drawing a lot of fishes in by the bunny style. If you've missed that video, I request you to go back and watch that video. It will be easier for you to draw the fish then. And in case you want to slow down this video, you can do that. That's the option available. So here I'm drawing my very first fish, the basic fish three. You can choose any other fish from the templates we practiced. That's up to you. But I'm going to keep it really simple. By now. You must have understood that I really like simple motifs and simple borders. That's my personal choice. But you're free to choose any other fish from all those we have practiced as per your choice. The first one is done, and similarly I'm going to draw the two other fishes. Now, let's decorate them. Let's do the detailing. It's now time to outline them with fine liner marker. Here's the double outline. This project is very simple and very easy because we've practiced all these steps in the practice lesson. And the fun part is that despite being super easy, this one is the most beautiful. It's my absolute favorite. If you're following along or planning to draw it afterwards. This is surely going to be flammable at work for your home or for your loved ones. So then we are done with the outline. Now it's time to decorate the border pattern. For that, I divided the border area in equal parts. And with pencil, I am now drawing the border pattern like so. We have practiced a lot of border patterns as well in the practice lesson. If just in case you miss that lesson, please check that out and you can choose any other border pattern of your choice from that template also. For your class project, you are most welcome to change the border patterns, to change the number of fishes, to change the style of fishes. You can do anything you want in this Madou bunny style painting. And I would love to see your version of class projects. The border pattern is ready. Now I am doing the details. Here. I'm outlining the required area with thicker marker. Sometimes I just look for the words, the appropriate word in my head and I just forget. And it happens usually when I'm drawing and talking at the same time. So this is done. The border pattern is ready on one part. Similarly, we'll make it on all four sides there. And now it's time to decorate the fishes. So I'm keeping the design very simple and basic because we are going to be using vibrant colors and I don't want to fill the visuals with very busy and complicated design. I want the colors to stand out. And that's why I'm keeping it really simple. Good. And the sketches ready? I'll see you in the next lesson where we will start coloring it. 16. Bharni Project Painting: Welcome back. So we are ready with the outline of this beautiful painting. And now it's time to color it. For that. As discussed earlier, I'm using my watercolors. You can use whatever medium you choose to use. And here I start with the background first. So it's very simple. Technique, just like filling the color in a coloring book. My brush here is neither too wet nor too dry. Just write Kansas and z. And with that, I'm just filling out the background. So I'm painting around the fish motifs. And since it's a watercolor paper, to ignore drying very quickly. So as you see here, I'm choosing small, small parts of the painting to color. And I'm finishing that particular part before moving on to the other. But that way I am avoiding anytime soon T background. But just in case there are patches in the background that will also be taken as fixture. So I'm not worried about the badges if they format, but addressee and I'm trying to avoid them. I hope you got my point. And then the background is ready and I let it be for a couple of moments to dry. And then I started coloring the fishes. So here I took one color at a time approach. I started with yellow and decided to finish on the parts where we, where I wanted yellow in all the faces. Here. I tried to kind of create a pattern. And for that, I colored all the teal fend off all the fishes in yellow. Once the deals were colored, I decided to paint the fence also yellow. I really like this bright yellow. It's one of my favorite colors. Do I have many favorite color? But this bright yellow is definitely one of them. So Debbie go on the mean fins of the fishes are colored in yellow now. Okay, Now it's time to change the color. So I'm taking red and with a smaller brush, I'm going inside the fish. I'm painting the Feast of the first fish with red. Like so. And since the top and bottom fishes are similar, I'm painting the bottom page piece in red as well, but that choice is completely yours. If you want to change the color, you can totally do that. Now, I'm adding the same red stripes all over the fence. These two fishes. I also feel that the face of this fish is very thin. So I'm going in with another code of red, this bright red. And that's nice. Now I'm in green, in my clean brush and going in to paint all the skills like that. And follow the same pattern on the other fish. Also. As you see, I have used green for alternate rules of skills. Now I'm going in with ultramarine blue on the remaining rules of scapes. And I'll be following the same steps on the other facial muscles. Now, I will use this sap green, which is kind of an olive green in this scenario, color effect. And I'll color this the other half of the page, all these colors I'm using directly from the SEC. And I'm not mixing the colors my way to the edges directly from the palette. Now same goes to the other fish over here. I liked the intensity of the color in this one. So I'll go with another quote on the first fish. Like that. Nice and vibrant. Now adding some ultramarine blue here and there. And finally, it's time to paint the fish in the center. And for her, I am mixing the bright green. So I'm just adding a little bit of yellow in the Green Knight that to vary the color a little bit from the rest of the pages because I've used cleaning them all. So now let's use French ultramarine. And now some cilia read. It's kind of vermilion color. If you're not using familiar. Of course, you must not be using fluid, meaning color. And our same old green. Now, let's give some red lips to this one. And so we're done with the painting. Join me in the next lesson where we will do the final detailing, right? So I'll see you in the next lesson. 17. Bharni Project Detailing: Welcome back. Now, this is the final step to our second class project. Here, I'm going to detail these fishes with fine liner marker. And as you see, I'm mostly filling the double outline with fine line work like that. So it's super easy and simple. Nothing complicated. I'm going all over it and filling the entire novel outlined with the fine line work. Similarly, I'll decorate the other fishes also. But for this one, I will be filling in some slanting lines like that. Just to create some variation. I will fill some slanting lines in the films, also. Some fluid Coby lines on the teal. I decided to make them feel good on the body of this page. But as you see, the black fine liner marker is not standing out enough. So I will use white. Rule is when you may get sand out. That we're done with the fishes. Now it's time to fill in the backdrop because it feels a bit too flat to me. I'm just going with some wavy lines. It's my number eight fine liner. Like that. I filled in the end diabetic jaw. And that's the final step of this painting. Now, I'm just outlining the border with my black sketch pen. Just to reclaim the outline right back. They're nice and bold. And that's the final look of this gorgeous painting. Isn't it beautiful. So that's the end of the second class project. Now join me in the next lesson where we will move on to the third class projects. 18. Project Godna Sketching: So let's begin the project by sketching the motif on the papers. So first of all, as usually we will start with the border secure. I'm drawing the border. By now. You know the, the pattern I follow for making all my paintings in my dominant style. So I hope it's easier for you, for you now to follow along. I have marked the bottoms. Now in the center, I want to make a circle. So first of all, I have to mark the center of this page, which is very easy. Like I have to take the point where the two central line intersect each other. And that's our center of this rectangular page. And from there I will draw one circle and then some concentric circles, as we discussed, GoldenEye style is all about concentric circles and rows. So here, make sure you don't move the center of the circle. Keep the center. Same for all the circles. And if you are not able to follow along, I will link the final drawing, the sketch in the resources. So you can find this from there. Here as you see, I'm making the double line in, outlining the inner rose, but it's not going to be the double lines. I'm going to fill in with black color. So it looks like a thick and bold outline instead of a double line. So that's why I made it. And this is pretty much the outline of the design. Now, I'm going to divide these rows in three parts. So roughly not exactly the equal three parts, but roughly three parts. Because all the folk art forms are very organic and natural. So they are full of flowers. They're not very perfect, as you know, the, the digital illustration or something, they are handmade, so the feeling of handmade is always there. Now. I will start filling in the motifs. So I sat with the animal. Can you guess what animal is this? I'm going to to make an elephant in my bunny style. And which is made very simply. So you can follow along like that. And that's it, That's the elephant. So I'm going to draw, do elephants in each row. And so for elephants total for two rows like that. There. Now in the mid part of this row, I will be making the tree of life. So the Tree of Life I'm making here is full of fishes instead of leaves or branches. Hello fishes. That's a symbolic model, bunny motif. Symbolic representation of the tree of life. It's a tree of life which is full of fishes. So nature wisely is the tree of life in form of fauna as well as Florida. It's nature wisely and the oneness of everything, animals and the trees. Oneness of them in nature. That's what it represents. They're very easily and simply. We've made this tree of life. Once we're done with the entire sketching, we will just outline it with the fine liner mockup. You know that step. Now one of the rows is ready and we need the exact same illustration in the other row. Also. We will copy that in the time-lapse for now, let's make the border. And here I'm making a very simple border of leaves or petals arranged forming. These are A's, you can say like that. And I thought it was being a little too wonky. So I just thought of making the marks for the placeholder of each petal or leaf. And now I will do the same design for the border that I did before. So at any point, if you think it's not. Coming out as you want it, you can just use, like you can take use of the ruler and compass and everything and try to make it as perfect as you want it. But never let the process too overwhelming and tiring. Just keep it simple and fun so you can enjoy it. On right here. You see me struggling with the the border. And you can follow along that. It became very easy now to make all the leafy patterns. Once we've drawn the lines for the placeholder. Like this only I will make the borders on the rest of the three sites that I will of course take a time-lapse for that. You can pause the video and finish making the borders on all four sides. Let's start working on the central motif. And for the central motif, I have decided to make a bird. The chairs are inspired by the peacock. So it's not a realistic peacock, but it looks partly like a peacock and partly like a duck or a swan. So it's a whimsical and fictional, but which is supposed to look pretty. I really love this part of any folk art form, be it might've money or gold or any other Russian folk art or Mexican folk art. The creatures and even the flowers are very whimsical and magical. It's almost like illustrating a kid's book. And I really liked that part of the full guides. So here we are done making the bird. Now, I have moved on to the outer border of the concentric circles. There I am making this simple three petal flower. The trick here is to divide the circle in four parts and make one flower each at 1, and then you fill in the quarters. I hope that made sense. So with that, you avoid the chances of some flowers being squash or some flowers being oversized. It's mostly the same size. All the flowers mostly are the same size if you practice like that. And then we have completed the main elements. Now, it's time for a magic. There. I have completed the entire artwork. Now it's time to ink it. So I'll see you in the next lesson. Meet me with your inked artwork. 19. Project Godna Coloring: Welcome back. In the previous lesson, we sketch this motif and as you see, I have outlined it with quinine, a marker. And now I'm removing the graphite marks. And for this one, I'm going to use the brush markers, watercolor. Brush markers. You can use watercolor. Also. You can use a critical source of whatever medium you like, you can use that. But watercolor brush pens are very easy to use and I just wanted to use them for this project. So here I start one color at a time and I go on filling in the colors. It's a very simple and very easy process. So I don't have to tell anything about the technique. I have to just go on filling the colors and you can do the same. So here we go. You don't have to use same color palette as mine. You can use your own colors, but I just thought this will look really nice. So I choose this color palette. Then I'm now going to use some yellow. Red, and yellow look really good together. Now, let me tell you something more about the history of this style. This particular style of modal bunny was started by the great artist channel dv. And she did it fit the help of bamboo pens and lamp black. That's why the thick bold black outlines. You can look for her work online and if you do so, you'll find how organic and simple the artworks are and how much ease she has used in her work. And that's the beauty of this style. You will also find some very intricate and busy and, and very full goodness style paintings full of good work. But mostly it's very organic and easy and simple. That's the beauty of any forgot, isn't it? There's the center part of the motif is done. I am leaving the background of the bird blank. I will color it in the end and you'll know why. Moving ahead with other parts of the motif. While filling in colors, you need to understand that you don't have to go on coloring each and everything right away. Go slow. Keep most of the areas uncolored and blank and see how it looks and gradually fill in the color. If you color each and everything, it might not look that great. Because leaving some white is what makes the picture beautiful. Always leave some whites, at least in the beginning. Because later if you want, you can still color it up. But if you've already colored it in the beginning, then you can't remove the colors from the parts you don't like. So that's how simple this process is. Just fill in the colors as if you're coloring coloring book, and that's it. There's no much expertise required. Let's just be with the music and enjoy the meditative process of coloring this motif. Now I will color the three of the life on the other side in the same V. And here comes the star attraction of this motif, this blue color. And I'm coloring the border with this dead. Now, I'm taking the time-lapse and finishing it, but you're free to pause the video and finish your motif with the same color. I am coloring outer backdrop of the central motif. There. We are done with this. And now it's time for the real game changer color and that is black. You will see when I add black to the painting, how dramatically and magically it changes everything. I will start with the tiny parts and then move on to the bigger areas. Make sure the background has dried completely though this dries very quickly, but still just make sure that it has dried before painting so close to the previous area. So you avoid mixing the colors and making it ugly. And here, I colored the main background off the boat. Black. If you're not comfortable going in these tiny areas with a brush pen, you can do it with the fine liner markers also, all you have to do is just color that area black, no matter how you do it. So whatever you're comfortable with, you can use that to me. And that's how the drama begins. Let's finish up the borders with black. You see how the design is standing out like that. And there in the end, I will paint the eyes of the animals. Now you can leave it like this. But I went ahead and colored backdrop of the rows of motif on both sides because I was not liking it. The white background was not good to me. So I went ahead and painted it later. I'll show you how tiny dots for eyes of the fishes in the tree of life. Again, you can do this with the fine tip marker. And we're done. But as you see, it doesn't look that great. So I went ahead and painted the backdrop of the tree and the elephants with yellow and red. And I also made some patterns on the fishes and added a tree branch on top of the elephant. And this is the final look of the painting. Hope you enjoyed this video. I'll see you in the next one. 20.
