Meet Your Teacher

Hello! I am Utpreksha.

I am a Fine art graduate in drawing and painting. I like to handle different mediums and experiment with them to find various techniques that create interesting visuals. I love to use watercolors the most as it is lovely to work with their flow. I believe art should be created with a free mind which is why I work with spontaneity. I would love to teach various techniques of using colors to students and help them create their unique artworks!

I believe that artwork always turns out to be satisfying when we enjoy the process of creating. :)

1. Welcome!: Hi everyone, Welcome to this mini class. I'm a big shop and well-being between these three is Malte radians in this class. That's super easy and quick to paint and at the same time, look so attractive. Your favorite color scheme. Unit, basic drawing and painting materials, and small sizes of paper to paint on. That does it. So without wasting an event, that does start with the class. 2. Painting terrariums: These are tiny, paperless. I have kept ready with me. You're going to also gather all the required materials like brushes, color palette, container with water or pencil, wash or watercolors and such smaller, big pupils ready to paint on. You can paint along with me on wars, the whole class, and then enjoy your own painting session. Have a video Lake. To draw some cubes. Idioms, choose any basic or complex shapes for it. I first selected a simplest oval shape. And the shape of the radium looks at directive, so we'll feel free to use any shape of your choice. Then give a base to it. I like to draw a simple horizontal oval base with some thickness. Then in this structure, add some leaves in plants. You can add only a single type of plant, or like me, add Ubuntu types to show, but I didn't it. Bend them in one side to address them. And you can even add brand just drew it. Like them the drawing so that it won't leave any viewed. Warner, when's the painting is done? Lay in this ADI, which shapes and sizes do some sketching before drawing on defined that way. But if you want, I drew directly on the paper. You can experiment with different sizes and shapes of dedendum glass structures with the insight nice. Mix and match them and see which ones you like and then draw them on the final paper or praise them there. You've got a lanyard process like this beforehand. I've wanted to lead myself lose to explore and see what I come up with. So I did the drawing directly there. We will keep the drawings ready on all three papers so that you can start painting them simultaneously. Then when layer on when she does drying, we can paint on another sheet. We're going to have to wait for the paint to dry. For this second dedendum, I chose a round shape with a base. This will look like a snowball with plants. I will add the plants later. Missouri will give a default wash. This Dr. Adam shape is a bit different. It is a square root sheath, but I've kept small opening on one side so that we can draw some lines coming out from there. It will bring a really nice visual interests. Draw small and big plants inside it. Bring them out from the small opening like independence in monks. And the drawing pack of r cubed irradiance is complete. Now let us give an overall base wash of color to each of them. I hope you are enjoying the process so far. You can pause at anytime and take your time to paint your own piece. To give a wash. I like to mix two or three colors on paper. I'm using Bosch gorillas and I will use them as water colors by adding water to give the wash. Your technique can be different. I like to paint like this as I get to keep the freshness of colors as well as enjoy both transparency and opacity using wash. So by using plaid brush, I'm mixed ultramarine blue and crimson red in this post generality. Let us keep it to dry and paint the next one. I use lemon yellow and crimson red to give abortion this I like the idea of printing these idioms do really colorful with different color schemes. Yet they look similar in style because of the way just paint it. To bend this third and final day radium, I use lemon yellow and Prussian blue. In the time just being did this, a false painting must have dried. So let us start with the final step of painting the plants. I've been those dark and light to a big gun deaths than the first wash to make them visible on it. Dried to be in the same color range or drastic into the color scheme you have selected for it to look cohesive. Overlapping the plants with big or small leaves will make it look busy, just like the radium side. And as these are, they good at if we endings and not realistic ones become NADH the tailings to it however we want. After the leaves, I darken the base a little bit. Then we can add the tailings over the plans with lighter or darker colors are driven by the way I'm using these model always. We can even use lines. Dots are veins like it is on leaves. I'm also giving some definition to the dome shape. With thin lines around it. Lines will walk to give the effect of transparent glass throughout the regimes. Then finally, I added some thin vertical lines on the base. By doing that, it got some weight and begin heavy on the bottom. I also added white color on one side to give the effect as if the glass is shining do relate. And with that, our first painting is done. The fourth layer of this dirt item is light. Do the yellow-colored used. So I gave second layer of red on the bottom. I've enjoyed up plans and bring them visceral W opaque filler. The processes seem like the first one. Give the dance on these plans the way you would like. I had read the lines around it for definition and somewhat thicker lines on the base. But it was still looking empty. So I added when modal arrow wash over everything. And also added small yellow leaves in it. Bid back. This one became my favorite out of all three. Then now you must have guard the process. I will give a wash by mixing colors, block in the colors of fleas and being good datas or visit using thin lens. Now does not bleed this finding we ending in the same B. You'll give me the links and to paint thin, steady lines, I use this brush with long dresses. It discard Rodrigo brush. It gives nice consistent lines. You're doing X long belly. I gave what if the lines on the base like other two paintings, you keep on three of them similar in style. And men last painting is complete. This is how they look side by side. I really hope you enjoyed this fun process of paintings such cubed aliens. They can be framed and Hank side-by-side. Such small paintings and a gardener visually look attractive. If you liked this class, you can also try other such being done long classes of mine. You can go on my profile and find such money.
