1. Introduction to dog in watercolors: Hi friends. I welcome you on another
skill share class. In today's class, I invite
you to Joe and faint dog. For those of you who are for
the first time here my name is alignment Sketch Illustrator
and water colorist. And from 2020 I'm
an art teacher. And if by chance you are for the first time here
on my channel, please just take
a look because I have a lot of art
tutorials where I share my patient
of painting with watercolors and to join
with colored pencil. So you will find out
for sure something else and new for you
about this class. This class is a very easy class, even if it looks as
if pretty difficult. Make it easy for you. And they will have a
beautiful project, yoke painted in watercolors. We will start with
showing the dog. I will explain you
how to draw from the bigger objects are smaller and how to create
the composition. Later one wants the drawing is done when all the
details will be drawn. We will proceed with
painting with watercolors, get the first layers will
be in wet on wet technique. This is one of the
techniques that are used a lot and you will find out
another tutorials as well. In this technique, I
will share with you how to mix up the colors correctly, how to create the
fluffiness on the dog, and how to create these
transitions from highlights, midtones, and shadows in
a very interesting way. And that you don't
have these edges. That's usually we
have in watercolors. And we will finish this class. So with adding
details with wet on dry technique that it is mostly used about
within the artists. And with this, we will represent the details on the dog and all the touches that are needed after painted the painting with
wet-on-wet technique. So what are we waiting for? Let's get started.
2. Supplies on painting the dog: Supplies that we
need for this class. Obviously, we need to draw the first drawing of
the dog, of the pet. And we will need
watercolor paper. I have 200 GSM
weight of the paper. If you have a higher
density does even better. Because the dope we will work
with wet on wet technique. And for this reason we
need a proper paper. Printed paper is not to put
enough because it isn't only 19 years and it won't work well for
wet on wet technique. We need that pencil. I'm using Faber Castile be. But if you want to
can use even HB. Because, why I use
bees because I wanted to be seen in the video. And for this reason,
I'd take a boulder PennSim within it and it's about arteries are used as well. Faber Castile, kneadable eraser. It, what it is good
for this kind of eraser is that it is not removing the lines
but removing Cathy. Boldness of the lines, the hue of the lines. And when we start to
paint with watercolors, the drawing is not popping up. If you don't have need to
believe eraser and erase, that is good enough. The only thing that
I will ask you throughout the work
is that you are not erasing totally the lines only a little bit to
remove these kinds of lines can pop up lately after applying
the watercolors. Then I have a 36 bands of
watercolors, White Nights. I advice you to buy
as welding pipelines, just a good high-quality
watercolors. It, it will last too
literally long time. Me, if you don't want
to have all 36 bands, you can take one with
24 or even 12 pens. And then to make the
combination that you need for this specific work, we will need only brown colors. And I will use or pile
must tell my pallete of all brown colors and,
or croup firstly, as well as some of the blues
we can because we will have light air and cold shadows and for this we will
need some blues. But if you have any
other bullied that have different colors of brown, it will be perfect. Being brushes I have here for, but I think that I will
use only two of those. I will use a synthetic one
because this paint brush I use for wetting the paper
and it is a good enough. But if you have any
other bigger paintbrush, then you can use any paint
brush that you have. It doesn't really matter
which type of just take any big what they
mean. Background. And the main work I will
do with these paintbrush. And mainly at the
end of the work, I will use some
smaller paintbrushes for adjusting the details. For your paintbrush is good enough that you can
use it for details, then use it the
same thing, brush, you don't need to have a
verity of paint brushes. That's it. Let's start.
3. How to draw a dog: At this table will
start the drawing of the dog that we have. If you want to, you can see I put
it in the video. The dog that we are joined by, took it on Pinterest. I'm measuring its proportions. That we have
proportions of attack. When we are creating
the composition. The first thing that we're
going to do is to draw from the bigger parts of the
object to the smaller ones. We're not true in each details. In the same time,
at the same time. Always went through week. We are going from a bigger
object to a smaller one. So one-fourth over here will
be the hands of the dog. Will have it over here. Then we have it's bad
in that is coming up. There. Have puppies. She needed. The mouth is Copan. But the reason we have and
bigger mouth over here. Now when we scrub
almost adjusted, every part of the joke, either remove the
unnecessary lines. And these lines is that guiding
dummies for all the work. Moving but not complete. They say loved mutable eraser
because as you can see, we still have very
thin lines over here. But Pitt estimate, making our work. Now to missing, over-share with Joe quality the puppies and hit the little bell it
till we adjust the year. And the mouth is open. And good to link. Is health of the work done. For this reason,
we're spending lot of time on the June
called the dark. The mouth is a little bit
tomorrow, open, wide, open and heal the seed bank perspective
around a little bit. Now, we will move to draw. Here we have the share. Here, little TRO, the body. Beautiful body. Drawing, these beautiful body. We are positioning the dogs. So we represent the sheet. We have here. Some share and
it is not so clearly seen. Here. We have a soil with
lots of year end here. We have relaxed fit. And it looks longer, but none because
it has longer or partially because it
is closer to our arms. Here we have a soil. We'll talk here for fiercely here of a ship. Very important thing
about composition and drawing our puppy. As you have seen, we went
from a bigger subject, a bigger proportions,
two smaller ones, and we went little by little
to drawing the details. Now what I will do, I will remove the lines
that those month-end combustion bit and that slaves
are not popping up lately. And for this, I'm
using my eraser, my mutable eraser,
and remove it. I advice you to go the same the same vent we can start
to present with painting. You say it like this. We need to Betty and to get to these kinds
of foods rolling.
4. How to create the hair of a dog in watercolors: Now it's time to start our
painting with watercolors. And what I do, I take plain water and my
synthetic paintbrush. And I'm going to
wet my beautiful, beautiful and took
turn to worry. If you are going with the water outside of
the drawing itself, we need to create this
effect that we have here on the payment on the dog. And for this reason, we
can apply model what? I'm taking my fan brush. And we'll start with
acrylic colors. And I'm looking for beautiful
spaces of mine talk. I have our shear. I have bullet there. And I don't want to have straight edges because
we need to create the feeling of
fluffiness on the dog. And for this reason, I will go with my wet on wet clinic and they will adjust the details
in the background. I'm working with my
synthetic paintbrush to go on with images as
well and taking rotation. That these edges are
not going too far away. But the idea is that these
edges are not too strong. We need to create a
really pleasant color. Now. I'm starting to take more darker colors
and man brown colors. I'd say raw sienna. And some burnt sienna. Burnt in, work better for me. And I'm starting to, hopefully, I create
this fluffiness. Scaling bullish here. I'm thinking my smaller
paintbrush take Scipio, making it darker color, and then starting to paint with darker colors till
when while it is wet. Because I don't
want to green it. Very dark edges. I will take some
Payne's gray color and I'm adjusting
my darker parts. I will make some more
scholar because Morton see you won't see you there and
ship it to make it warmer. And I'll start to
create Vicki here. If I see that my color
is taking cold air. I bruise, they have to cast it, but we're chewing when
we drew the event. It has more or less
the same structure of the head that
we have as humans. They have IN burrows to that is, it can see some of my card because the
paper was too wet, went too far when I'm
taking the paper to dry. Very key is nothing complicated. I'm taking grow Sienna. And then it just
overhear some color. Making a ton more
intense and interesting. Here the year. I'm taking more
boldness and I'm taking more sepia colored
and green tint. Darker touches over here. I'm ticking ocher color and
shear where it is still wet. You see, our dog is not
clearly seen. This one. The idea that we're not
printing it, clear, either. A white color of the shirt. I will maintain this car. And this four fifths. We'll have it over here too. I'm taking raw sienna. And I'm going to draw this. Here is will, I will
width once again. And we'll add some Mars color. It is darker little
bit I will mix up. I hit Save Mars, but it is buoyancy
and now withdraw seeking to create this effect. Here, it is not too with a
third and I'm wetting it. And today's burnt sienna, I will add some umber color. And to recreate some colors. My colored Zola shear and some sepia said bear
wherever we have. Some shadows. Don't worry if the paper
is getting too wet and it is okay because we are working on
a wet on wet technique. And confused so that we have these effects
are for wave effect. We can take tissue if we have too much
trouble there, e.g. over here, I feel like
I have to mature. And bathymetry morphing. It adds some Maurice brown
and sepia color over here. So created some
details and shadows. We'll take some burnt on where you sit all the time. I'm just looking for
these combinations of Brown's color to create
more interesting effects. And I tried to shove
my work over at all the time because
I don't want to have this kinds both
edges on my paper. Wherever I went too much, I remove with a tissue. You have to imagine that we
are taking care of this dog. We are adjusting the hair
from the top to below. We're not going there and forth. The very important
thing to notice, I work a lot with Burnt Sienna. I didn't allow things
color and mix. Some Marissa Brown on it. I tried to work fast because my paper is
really important. And I want to create
these fluffy effect of the shear and digest and different colors,
different shadows, K and to fund and taking more CAPM. And once again,
going with the ears, I'm taking more boldness in color and already
working on details. I'm ticking more
Payne's gray color and mix it up with sepia. To agree these darker
tones over here. You fulfill that to your work is really wet and you can
add to work with it then. And just some use some
hair dryer to try it. This step I will
use a hairdryer. We will try every sink and then we will work with details.
5. Last details in watercolors: I tried my work but I didn't try it ever think it
is still a little bit wet because I don't want to have visually that
really light on. I want to have those softer by using Payne's gray and sepia, look for something
darker that you have. And now I live or
work with the eyes of the dark to create these beautiful I is that
we have and I am brew. And we have an I. Then one day I will adjust the white part
because in this way, we will highlight the dog's face and the nose. So we have a highlighter tool
that we didn't preserve. But I will add some white color. If I haven't mentioned
the term, the supply. If you want, I can add it. If not, then don't worry. See how I'm taking my
paintbrush because I want to create these kind of
affects the hair. But I don't want
to get it to work. Or CPM or Mars brown color. Rare chance to you see how now after
applying the details, we see more Walden this
on follow-up work. I'm taking more burnt sienna. And the same that I did
with these kinds of colors. I'm taking the
paintbrush in this way. I remove a little bit, there were more Toba shear
and making these effects. Let's work on the
shadows gone. I'll fit. I took brain of water
and now I usually move these kinds of edges and the strong edges that we have. Take some tissue to remove and make a lighter color. Here we have more light. I adjusted with plain water
and drink it with a tissue. I'm taking ultramarine
color and add two sepia. And to familiarize
with the shadows. I'm taking now Cho
black color to adjust. Again my ions like
iron on the one and shared and chest
and make it bolder. We will take some bedroom
the color for creating them. And to get more of what covers
it can see the picture. It is not really different. I will add some yellow
color for the shadow. Let's take a little bit of this combination and may know how to tell a little
bit to make the shen I feel has to look
now at the old work. And to see what her
chest water-filled top, I wrote wet fur around my pet, my dog to create the shadows. And for the shadow, I will use some blue
colors like Ultramarine. Yeah. And now I'm taking my white card. I have on the tube bit. It is temporary up our gouache. Take him grill is few feet. And trying my paintbrush
and taking only color. And I will make really
small highlights over here. On the notes. I have these kind of
highlight tone and my teeth. Well, my teeth. Dogs tea. The work is done. I hope you enjoyed it. I would like to share
your work with me.
