2. Still Life Painting: Vase Painting Part - 1: Come back to a new
video. Today, I'll be demonstrating how to
paint a still life vase. So to do that, I'll
take in some white and just a touch of Prussian
blue on the rigger brush. Look at that, I've just
applied some reflection, so we'll start from there and
I've just added some water. So we'll start off
from the bottom. Maybe you'll have
a flower there. Pushing the brush against the surface and getting that
add in some more water. We have to be real careful
and make them look symmetric. W grab in some white. And I just painted this just
a couple of minutes ago. Just refining the
shape and the edges. Fair enough? No taking some thick
paint of blue and white. Just two colors as of now. Let's drop that color
right over there. Okay, something like that. Still using the rigor brush. Not a much of water
because I don't want the back drop to be
seen to pop out. And now we'll take
in some white, drop it right over there. And as we go back, we'll
add in some more blue. Just add in some more
blue and blend that. And without cleaning the brush, we'll take in some
cam mill and reflect that over here when the paint is wet I want it to be
reflected at the very edge. Just blending it with
a blender brush. And now let's go ahead and drop in some designs over here. Just going to drop it in
randomly just like that. As of now, I'm using the scrip
lain brush to paint this. And now let's come over here and just place in
some more of that. Maybe we should
add in some white, darken that color a bit. Let's place it over there. And now, let's do a flat. So to do that, we need
a circle in the center. And we need to make
them look a bit curved. With that just like that and just a few strokes
around the circle. Not added water as of now. And let's drop in the
details over here. And we can continue with that
all the way up till there. With that just two
strokes, right? Another stroke. And
something over here, too. And now with some white
mixed with that blue, let's paint some designs
around that flower. Taking in some cobalt
blue, vibrant blue. And let's drop it on
the shadowy side. And now we'll add in some water. And let's drop in the
interior part of this flower. In the form of design, I'm still using the Scriplan brush. And as we come to
the lighter side, it'll get slightly brighter. Taking in more of white. Look at that. That helps it
make look three dimensional. It's a bit of blue
from there and place it out there. That's
gonna be a mid tone. And we need it to
be very gradual. So it'll apply more
blue over there. And I'll grab in some more blue, and let's drop in the boundary. And now let's continue
with the designs. Maybe we'll have a
variety of that. Maybe these are
alternatively designed. And now let's drop in
some more of that over here with a lighter shade of blue and adjust bit of white. Now, let's go ahead
and talk some of these designs and something
a bit over here too. Just add in some variation and make it look
three dimensional. Something over here, too. And we get mainly on
the shadowy side. Look at that. Just sort of darkening. The flour, petals of the flour. Just a bit. And to make it
look even more realistic, let's drop in some more
of that over here. Just a bit. Not much. You may add even some white. That's
3. Still Life Painting: Vase Painting Part - 2: Just kind of playing with
the tugs and the lights. With that, just like that. We have to remember that this is not flat and it's curved. Something is gonna come
off right over here, too. Refining the strokes. Then
just a bit over here, too. And now I've taken the
detailed round brush, and let's place in some
white right over there. And let's go ahead and place
in some darts inside these. I just went ahead and
painted a bowl over here. Et's come over here.
Let's drop on. So leaves and stuff like that. Gonna grab in some white? Let's drop in the flour.
Right over there. Gonna grab some yellow
cadmimelo with that same color. The color which you don't
want over here as of now is pure white
and pure black. And now I'm making use of
the modified flat brush. Add more of cadmium meow
to get that brightness. Let's drop in some
more of that over there. We're at the top. And now with some cadmium mio and just a touch of
prussian blue in it, let's drop in the
leaves over here. And maybe just continues
all the way up till there. And we'll have another one
over here. Look at that. I like that blue
showing through. Maybe another one. Look at that. I left the gap for that
and just a bit over here and there. Look at that. It's that easy. And I'm gonna add more blue to that
very same color. And let's drop in. So
that shadow leaves. Adding more of Prussian blue because you want it to be
very, very dense over there. Look at that, just like that. Go back to that
color, this color, start cleaning the
brush, and get admit tone color and just
place it right over there. Fair enough. So white, orange and black. Let's come over
here and drop in. Another flower right over here. Maybe it's a bit
curve over there. Don't want it to be pure white. Just added a bit of orange
and plaque to get that color. Some slide blue is
coming there, and that's okay. We'll make
full use of that. Maybe something comes
off there, too. And just a bit over
here, another leaf. Another petal, in fact. Go back to that
modified flat brush. And let's drop in. Another leaf. Go on some
black, orange, green, blue, yellow, cadmium
mellow, and let's drop in the dark or shadowy
leaves over there. Okay, something like that.
And just another leaf to make it look realistic. And in the meanwhile, when
that flour is drying, we'll go ahead and
paint in this flour. So we're just gonna
take in some white, just some white, and maybe the lights filtering over there and to make it
look interesting. Let's drop in just a bit over there. Less
is more over here. Okay, something like that. And then just a
bit of highlight, just a tip of that, an interior part of that. Look at that makes it
look interesting, huh? And the top of it is gonna get brighter just playing with the lights and the darks, mid tones, less of
mid tones over here. And I'm using the
rigor brush over here. And now let's switch
gears to this flower. And let's sort of
give the shape to the petals and just
drop in the flower. Just a bit over there. I'm just gonna mix in some
more cadmmelow and some white. You should add in
some more white. Let's drop in. Look at that. We can overlap that with the leaves over there to
make it look realistic. And just a bit of
highlight on this one. We'll go maybe we'll
go ahead and add in the shadows and just sort
of give the soft blend. And now let's come over
here and just drop in some more highlights
and refine the strokes. Take in some white,
cadmium mellow, touch of blue, Prussian blue. That making it look
more greenish. There's a bit of the tip. Maybe the tip is gonna
catch more flight. L grabbing some of
that darker color. Let's place that
right over there. There's a bed over here, too. Load in some thick paint. Let's go to place a red
over there. Look at that.
4. Still Life Painting: Vase Painting Part - 3: And we'll go ahead and
highlight this because watercolors try a bit tall
because they're water based. So let's go ahead
and drop in that. And let's go ahead and place in another leaf or two over there to bring in some separation between the vase and the flower. Now, I've drinsed my brush in water and take in some black. Take off the Es paint
and the excess water, and let's drop in the shadows. We just like that. Let's drop in some
morrow here, too. Just the base of
that. For the shapes. And let's drop in the shadow
of this leaf on this one. Gonna wipe off the brush. Well, let's blended. Look at that just like that. Now, I take in some white
and some cadmi mellow. Let's drop in. Just
some textures. Just some amount of textures. Over here, follow the angles, follow the shapes, follow
the reference picture. Those minute details make a huge difference
to the painting. And something over here, too, just a bit and just just, like, tap a bit over here, too on the opposite side, making them look very
soft but texturized. And now it's some white. Just some white.
Let's come over here. Let's plast in the lighting. Flatten the brush. And let's drop it there as
thin as possible. And just over here,
too at the bottom. This splendid, very likely. And we'll wipe off the brush, and let's sort of place
the tart over there, making it look transparent. Keep on doing the same
place, and it'll work. Okay, something like
that. Look right. Now we'll take in again
some that white paint. Let's drop in some more of that. Just a bit over here, too. With this, I come to the
end of this painting. I hope you've enjoyed it,
and thanks for watching.
5. Still Life Painting: Glass Flower Vase Part - 1: Start off with some white and black and drop in
some of the color. Make sure it's a brush, make it gradual, make
it like a curve. Now, it's some pure white.
Let's go like that. Let's go like that and
then something like that. Now, with a soft pink color, let's drop in some basic
shape of some roses. So I've added some water
that come over that. And as we come over here,
it's going to get lighter. And I'm just doing
some rough shape. Very rough. I just went ahead and placed the
shadow part of those roses. So now let's take in some green. Let's take in some green and some yellow ochre and
drop in some leaves. Some small, some
big, some mediocre. Don't follow a pattern. Something like that. And then another one goes
like that, a very big leaf. It's going over here. Just glop it in like that, maybe more of blue this time. Like that, and then that goes
off all the way like that. And maybe I find
some over here, too. And you can shape your
still life just like that. No, I went back to
my green colour. And maybe, you know, let's drop in some leaves again. Maybe like that. I need some
water. Rub it off like that. I don't want it to
be in that shape, and I'll come back and
I'll do the desired shape. Maybe adding some black to it. Okay, let's see, oh, yeah, that makes a
huge difference. Let's drop in some another
one comes like that. At the bottom, it's
going to get thicker. Let's drop in another
one like that. Maybe at the bottom, it's
going to get very thick. Okay, maybe take in some green, add in some shadow color.
6. Still Life Painting: Glass Flower Vase Part - 2: Very warm peach color. Let's come over here and
drop in some highlights. It's gonna come like that,
and then be like that. Add in more of white. Don't use pure white. Maybe, you know, let's
come over here and shape in a pet at too. Yeah, let that fade off. You can add in some water if you want. I've not added yet. Okay, something like that. We add in more of red. And this is now the
final highlight, so you need not worry about it. I've taken some white colour. Let me put it here. That makes all sorts
of shapes like that. Give it some pure white. I'll come over here again
and drop in some petals. Some shadow color. I'll
come over here and drop in some beautiful nice
little shadow areas. Maybe we need some more white. Okay and then. Basically, you want your
painting to be very beautiful. And everybody wants their
painting to be beautiful. And then plant that
with this side, I'll go with a purplish tone. Some very warm green. I'll pull out
something like that, and with some highlight
color and some of the color which is
left out in the brush. Okay, so let's
paint in like that. To just pull it and a flick. With a very soft purple color. Let's drop in some flowers. Make sure that
each petal touches another. That's the trick. Maybe I'll glop on some
paint over here like that, some are thicker,
some are thinner. As you go back,
I'll paint in with some other color there because I feel they're in the shadow. Maybe it's some more
of that purple. Now, with some soft peach color. I'll drop in some
of the background. Go very gently there. And I'm going to paint this
background very rough. So I'll take in some
more yellow ochre, some lemon yellow, mix it up, see what we get. Okay. You can even shape
your jar with this. I add in a touch of black to
just make the bottom dark. With some charcoal gray color. I'll come over here
and drop in the jar. And I want this to be having some shadow take in
some more of that. Water and blend it. Oops, I forgot to blend
this shadow, that's okay.
7. Still Life Painting: Glass Flower Vase Part - 3: Beautiful highlight color. I'll come over here and drop in some highlight
very carefully. Don't get too carried away
with those highlights. Okay, like that.
Wipe off your brush, just give it a soft blend. With some soft pink color, I'll drop in some highlights. For this, I'll take in
some yellow for that. It makes a nice
little peach color. And not everywhere. Add in some water. Okay, like that. With some green colour
and with some water. Let's drop in some
leaves just like that. Very sharp. Maybe all these leaves
are of different species. Three quarter inch brush. We'll just pull this
down like that. Okay. Just to have some fun with some light colour of green. Let's drop in some highlight
to these leaves over there. Don't go overboard. And these are watercolors. You can come back
anytime and change them. Now I just thought of
darkening these as I darken those just for the sake
of being consistent. That may be in more yellow
and white this time. Yeah, let me leave
it just like that. Then maybe Okay. I have an idea. Let's make in some
leaves over here, too. Just one or two. That's it.
And this is the third one. Maybe some tar colour. Let's drop here. Now, with some pure white. Let's drop in some
highlights to these flowers. Take in a lot of white. At there, there, and then maybe a couple
of highlights there. Then over there. Now with some yellow ochre. Then drop in some middle
part of these flowers. Like that and maybe over here
or two, a couple of them. Don't go overboard. Hmm. And maybe let's drop in
some over here, too. I'll take in some of the tark and that'll help to
show up the lights. I was just looking
at my painting, and I felt these two
are symmetrical. So I'll just drop in
a leaf like that. That there and another
one when he has a friend. They're splendid like that. Now with some lighter colour, I'll just reflect the water. Make sure they're straight. You can go across like that. With some black, I'll drop
in some shadow to this jar. Thanks for watching.
