No need to worry at all. I'll be teaching you everything in detail. We'll be starting by applying the background and creating an amazing gradient effect.

There'll be adding some amazing beautiful details to the Black Hills. At last, that is going to be an amazing, elegant moon that we are going to paint. I'll be also teaching you how you can remove your cited carefully so that you do not end up during your watercolor paper. This class is absolutely beginner friendly and you're going to learn a lot from this. We are going to use pasta colors to complete the entire painting. So without any delay, grab your art supplies and join me to create this beautiful, amazing minimal painting. 2. Art Supplies: Hey everybody. So before we start, it is very important to know the correct art supplies that you will need for this particular class. Let me give you all the details about the art supplies that we are going to use. So as usual, that is going to be a simple pencil that I know everybody must be having. Then we have a simple still Edge and which we have dimensions in centimeters and inches, which we are going to use to cut an A5 size sheet into a perfect square. Now, let us talk about all the brushes that we're going to use for this particular class that are only going to be three brushes that we're going to use. So the first one is a simple flat brush of size 1 ". Then we are having two detailing brush basically, which are also round brushes. The first one is of size one, and we're going to use this to add some minute details. The second one is another round brush outside style. So these are the three brushes that you will need for this particular class. No need to worry at all. You can go for any other alternative as well. Then we have a simple ceramic palette, which have three sections. Basically, it's not compulsory to have a same palette. You can use any other good alternative as well. Sorry, the pilot is dirty. Isn't it? Amazing we only need three colors for this particular painting. The two colors are going to be black and white, which are bootstrap allows. The center one is golden acrylic color. No need to worry at all. In case you do not have a golden acrylic color, you can go for an ocher yellow or a lighter shade of yellow, which is absolutely fine. Only three colors you will need for this particular painting. In case you are a beginner, I would suggest you can definitely get smaller bottles as well. Then next up we have a simple glass which I use to hold some water to clean up the brushes. Then you will need a tissue paper to dab your brush to remove excess amount of water from the brush. Next up, we have a simple masking tape. This masking tape is of size 1 ". And we are going to use this masking tape to tape the watercolor paper so that we get an amazing clean edge. Some basic stationary is like sharpener and eraser that everybody must be having. Now comes the most important part, which is the watercolor paper that we're going to use, which is 300 GSM. And these are A5 size sheets. These watercolor papers or from Canson, you can go for any other good alternative as well. So these are all the art supplies that you will need for this particular class. Now without any delay, Let's move towards the next part. 3. Lets Practice the Elements: Hey everybody. So before starting the entire painting, it is very important to practice all the elements that we have in this particular painting. I'll be taking you through every detail, how you have to start. We have an amazing background, the moon, the front black holes, and the way towards the snow hail. So here I have a simple A5 size watercolor paper. And let us start with the background. I have my one-inch plaid brush and are going to apply a thin coat of water on the watercolor paper. As you can see, the water is a little bit dirty, but it's absolutely fine because we are going to apply black and it is going to have a darker shade. Just simply dab your brush on the tissue paper, take some solid black color and apply it on the top layer. The reason behind applying a thin coat of water initially was that your color can spread easily. And this is also known as a wet on wet technique. Now absorb the color palette. I'm just trying to make a shade of gray in it. So add some white to the black color. Now, just below the black color, I have applied a nice cool dark gray, as you can see. Once we have applied gray and just simply clean your brush in the water and dab it on the tissue paper so that you remove access among the proton making dry and try to blend it with black color. The brushes absolutely dry and we have to blend it with black so that there is an amazing ingredient effect between gray and black. Now will be taking solid white color and we'll be applying it in just below the grey color. Tried to blend it with the gray shade that we have applied below black. So now you can already see we have a nice amazing gradient effect from black to white. No need to worry a dog, you have to practice this and as TO and steady manner. Let us paint these snowy hill, which is my favorite part of the painting. I'll be taking my round brush of size five and we'll be taking some solid white color. And the final painting, we only have one snowy hill. But here, I'm just trying to explain you by painting tools. I've simply taken some solid white color in my round brush and you just have to make these little strokes. As you all know, that mountains generally have natural shapes, so no need to worry at all. You can create your own shapes as well. I have taken a simple triangular shape, which is a general form of a mountain. You can create and have certain variations. You can see I have created this rough texture. That is because we do not have access amount of water in the brush. You have to make sure that you are detailing brush, all your round brush is dry so that you can get this amazing texture that we're having with the background. So this will eventually happen when you will start painting it with the background. There will be this rough texture that you will create. Once you apply one coat of y, you can also, again use the tip of your round brush, which is very pointed, and add this vibrant white on it to show some texture and depth on the mountain. So I hope that you've got an idea how you have to paint the snowy hill. No need to worry at all. This is not at all difficult. You have to just practice it before you move towards the final painting. Now, let us paint the moon, which is not at all difficult as well. I'm taking my detailing brush of size one, which is basically a round brush. I have taken some solid white and you just have to make a simple V-shape. Just observe the movement of my detailing brush. I have just made a C-shape on the background. And you have to make it a little bit thicker on the middle portion and pointed on the edges. So you can see this is how you can paint the moon. Let me paint it a little bit more so that you can get an exact idea. Also, it does not talk compulsory to paint a quarter moon only you can go for a full moon or a half-moon as well if you wanted to. You can experiment with the painting. Basically, it's not at all compulsory to paint it the similar way I have been doing. We can also create the moon in this particular angle that I'm painting right now. I have made it in an angle so that it looks a little bit more aesthetic and simple. You can use your detailing brush to paint this beautiful aesthetic moon. Now let us move towards the front Hills, which are solid black in color. You can use a simple pencil to practice and draw them. Again, let me repeat that. Mountains have natural shapes, so no need to worry at all in case you are not able to paint the similar way I have painted. You can draw your own natural shapes and experiment. I haven't given a nice outline to the mountains. Now I'll be taking my round brush size and I'll be taking solid black color in it. Use the tip of your round brush to get this pointy edges as you can see. Now once you add the outline, then you can fill in with a solid color. You can see how beautifully you can use the brush. You can observe the movement of the brush. You can also see how beautifully you can give details by using the tip of your round brush. And you can create these amazing pointy edges while the mountains. I would suggest that you can also create your own natural shapes on the mountains and you can experiment with the painting. Now let us paint it. One more time. I have a nice layer of mountains below. Again, I'm using the tip of my detail brush. You can see how beautiful the pointy edges. And then you have to fill it with solid black color. Between the snowy hill and the solid black color, we have created a nice contrast for the painting to make it look a little bit more elegant and vibrant. Now let us add some beautiful details and depth, which is also going to be a unique element for the painting. I'll be using my detailing brush of size one. I have taken some golden color. In case you are not having a golden color, you can go for a vibrant yellow, ocher, yellow. Taken some golden color in my detailing brush, dab it on the tissue paper so that the brushes absolutely dry. And we'll be creating this beautiful texture on the mountain. You can see the solid black color and golden as having a beautiful contrast. You just have to create this texture on one particular side only so that you can create a 3D effect for the mountain. So you can see I'm just creating the effect on the left side of the mountain. You can create it on any last night, but I have created it on the left side. Let me repeat it on the mountains as well. This is not at all difficult. You just have to tap your brush on the mountains this way and are very random and natural way. Just make sure that you do not completely covered it. You just have to apply it on any either of the sides tied to give this amazing 3D effect. In this way. This is how the mountains get enhanced and get more details. Let me label it. I just loved to label my practice sheets. Also, this creates a nice sense of satisfaction when we tried to create any painting. And it will be also very helpful for your art journaling as well. I've just given some basic labelings for all what we have painted right now. Now, let us move towards the last element, which is the pathway. And this is not difficult. You have to use the same detailing brush of size one, clean it because we have used golden in it. I'll be taking some solid white color. Now can you Andy dealing rush, we have some nice solid white color. You just have to apply it in between the two mountains that we are going to have in black. And you just have to make these little horizontal strokes. No need to create a perfect path. It has to be a little bit blurry and a little bit rough. I have just created some simple horizontal strokes. You can apply solid white color so that it can get a little bit more vibrant. Here, I have painted it on aggression, but in the final painting we are going to have it on the blockchain. So no need to worry about that. Let me also show you this and Black Hill as well. You can see you just have to make these little horizontal strokes and an angle so that it looks like a pathway in a perspective. We are done. That'll be now just giving you an example of how you can use the tip of your round brush to create these pointy strokes. Just take some black color and practice this beautiful strokes so that you can get an idea how you can use the tip of your detailing brush. So by creating these little strokes, you'll find it very helpful while painting the mountain area. This is the entire practice session and we have painted all the elements that you will need in the final painting. Before starting the final painting, it would be really great if you practice all the elements and then come towards the final painting. 4. Lets Cut the Paper: Hey everybody. Now let us cut the paper. Before coming towards the final painting we are going to cut. And if I size watercolor paper sheet into a perfect square, here I have my steel edge, which is having dimensions in centimeters and inches. So we're just going to use the vertical dimension, which is basically 15 cm, as you can see. On the horizontal side, we are also going to make 15 centimeter mark. So just simply place your steel edge and this horizontal direction. Try to match it with your watercolor paper. Try to have it in a bad way so that there isn't any mistake. Just simply take the reading 0-15 cm, make a mark. Now let us make one more mark so that we can get a parallel line. Again, I'll be placing my steel edge parallel to the paper edge and I'll be marking 0-15 cm. No need to worry at all. This is very easy and simple. I have just taken two points at 15 cm from the paper edge. Now I'll be drawing a simple vertical line. So I have got two points. Just place your steel edge in this vertical manner. Draw a simple vertical line. We'll be cutting the remaining part so that we get a perfect square. For the final painting. I'll be using a simple scissors to cut the remaining part. Just follow the line and be very much careful while cutting the watercolor paper so that you do not spoil the paper. Tried to cut on the line exactly so that you can get a perfect square. And we're done. You can see we have got the final paper and above x squared. Now, let us move towards the next part. 5. Lets Tape the Paper: Hey everybody. Now let us take the watercolor paper for the final painting. As you can see, we have our exact square watercolor paper ready, and here is my 1 " masking tape will be placing the masking tape on the edges of the watercolor paper. So that once we are done with the final painting, and when we remove this item, you get an amazing white border for the entire painting. You just have to take the masking tape and you have to place it in a perfect way. Try to match it with the paper edge. Tried to keep the masking tape parallel to the paper edge, keeps some part of the masking tape on the people and some on the dial according to your requirement. I just want a thin white line as Varda. So I have kept least some part of the masking tape on the watercolor paper. Just make sure that your masking tape is parallel with the paper edge so that there isn't any irregular line. Tap your finger or your thumb on the masking tape carefully so that it gets completely stuck with the watercolor paper. It will be placing one more day on the right side. And you can see I'm just placing my thumb and finger so that it gets completely stuck with the watercolor paper and the background surface that you are using. Now we have the last edge which is on the left side. That'll be placing my masking tape. And you can see we are done with the tape. So this is how you have to tape your watercolor paper. And then we are good to go and we can start with the painting. I hope that you've got an exact idea how we have to place your masking tape. Be very much careful, no need to hurry a doll. And let's move towards the next part. 6. Lets Paint the Background: Hey everybody. So we are going to paint the background and we're finally starting with the final painting. So as you can see, my watercolor paper is ready with the slight tip. I have a simple glass with clean water, my color palette, and we're going to use black and white. We only need these two colors to create. The background will be starting with solid black color. But initially we have to apply a nice thin coat of water in the background. I'll be using my flat brush of one age. Now before coming towards the final painting, let me show you the shade on this remaining part of the paper that we have cotton. So just apply a thin coat of water initially, this is basically known as a wet on wet technique so that your color can spread easily. Now we'll be applying solid black color on it so you can see how beautifully it spreads. And it will also be moist. Before we apply another layer of the color, we are going to start with solid black color. Now simply take your flat brush and clean it and water. We are going to apply a thin coat of water initially, that's why I have just removed the axis amount of black color in it. No need to worry at all in case you all water, There's a little bit dirty also, it's absolutely fine because the background is in a darker tone. So stand up lying these horizontal strokes from above to bottom portion or any of the ways you'll find it convenient. We just have to apply a PIN code of water and then even tone. Also make sure that there are no water pools and between the code should be evenly spreaded and then die watercolor paper. So as you can see, I have given a nice thin coat of water in the entire watercolor paper. And this is basically known as a wet on wet technique so that your collagen spread in even tone and perfect manner. Now, in my flat brush, I'm going to take solid black color as I have shown you on the scrape off paper. And we're going to apply it on the top layer. Since we are going to create the gradient effect from top to bottom. That is going to come from black to white shade. As you can see, I have applied a nice horizontal stroke. You can observe the movement of my flat brush. Similarly, you have to move your flat brush. So it is a solid black color and you can already see a nice spread on the bottom part. No need to hurry a dog. Take your time and paint it carefully, make sure that there is no space left between the masking tape and the watercolor paper. Now we'll be creating a nice shade of gray. I'll be adding some white to the black color. You can observe the color palette. No need to worry at all in case you're not able to make the exact shade. It is absolutely fine. This is a painting, so no need to take it that seriously. You can see we have created a nice gray tone. Always check it on JavaScript pulp paper if you're not that much confident enough to apply it on the final painting. I do that always. I have applied a nice gray tone just below the black shade. You can see the movement of my flat brush. I'm applying these beautiful horizontal strokes. So we have almost covered the paper and we have kept some space for the white shade. I'll be dabbing my brush to remove access amount of mortar and make it dry. And you can just blend the two shades, the solid black color on the top part and degrees hit on the bottom part. You can just observe how I'm moving my flat brush. Now I'll be taking some solid white color. As you can see, I have added it in the gray shade. Only. Just simply take some nice solid white color and we're going to apply it on the bottom part, which is remaining. So let us create that shade also ended up scrap of paper. Let's check it. A little bit gray in shale, which is absolutely fine. And you can apply it on the bottom part. As you can see, I'm just making these beautiful horizontal strokes, blending it with the gray shade above. And make sure that there is no space left between the masking tape and the watercolor paper so that you can get a perfect edge value. Remove the site team. So you just have to simply have some patients and make a nice gradient effect will be blending the gray shade above and the British shade that we have applied in below. Just clean up your brush and water, dab it on the tissue paper to remove access amount of water. Now will be making it completely dry so that we can blend it together. I have cleaned my flat brush, as you can see that with carefully on the tissue paper, make sure that there is no water in between. I will be making, again be horizontal strokes to blend it. As you can see, the dry brush will basically help you to blend the colors together. No need to hurry at all. Keep some patients and do it in case you're non-black much confident enough to come towards the final painting. You can practice it on a rough scrape off people first and then come towards the final painting. Now you can observe that we have created a nice gradient background from black to white chain. Now let's move towards the next part. 7. Painting the Snow Hill: Hey everybody. So now let us paint does no Hill, which is going to be absolutely fun. So we're going to use white poster color to paint the entire snow. And I hope that you are ready with your gradient background. I'll be using my round brush of size five. And as you can see, we're just starting it. We just have to use the tip of your round brush, which is also basically a detailing brush. Don't need to worry at all and no need to hurry. Just simply tried to create this triangular shape. As you all know, that mountains are generally having a natural shape, which you can create by yourself as well. So it's not necessary to create a single triangular shape. You can also create multiple hills using this. So I have given a basic outline and now we'll be filling it with complete white color. So you can see already there are patches which is forming a nice texture and then tire snowy hill. Now one thing that I want all of you to take care of is that we haven't taken any water in the brush. So you can see it has only color and it is creating a nice natural texture on the paper. So it also gives that nice snowy look to the mountain. And it gives you a nice rough texture value. Move your brush. It can come eventually. So no need to worry in case you are not that much confident enough to paint on the final painting, you can definitely practice it on adapt scrap of paper first and then you can come towards your final painting. I'm just trying to enhance by giving some solid white color on the left area. As you can see, you just have to create these natural patches. And only to worry, this is going to be absolutely in a random way. No need to worry that you're not able to paint it in the same way I have painted. You can create your own natural shapes and natural textures as well. Let's try to make it look a little bit more natural. And in case you make any mistake, that is also absolutely fine. You can cover it up by adding some more white color on it. So you can see how beautiful the **** is looking. So I'll be adding some more vibrant, bright color to make it a little bit more attractive. On the tip, we are adding a little bit of solid white color. And I'll be using my brush tip, which is pointing to can see how beautiful the texture is looking. And also one more thing that you can observe is that we have wind complete the entire snowy hill. We are going to have black holes in the front, so you just have to paint it in this form. Also between the gradient background and the snowy hill, that is an amazing contrast. And the snow is getting really nice enhancement. You can see, I'm just trying to extend that a little bit towards the bottom area. And we are almost done painting does no ****, I'm just adding a little bit of white. As you can see, this is absolutely natural form of painting. And now let us move towards the next part. 8. Painting the Front Hill: Hey everybody. So now we are going to paint the front ****, which is absolutely black and color. And we're also going to add some amazing details to it. So here I have my round brush again of size five, and we'll be taking some solid black color, as you can observe in my color palette. To try to add some water to your solid black color so that you can move your detailing brush carefully and in a smooth manner. We will be starting from the left area. And you can see I'll be using the tip of my round brush so that I can give a nice pointy edges to my mountains. In the front. Again, I'll be telling you, we are going to create these natural shapes. Only. No need to worry at all in case you are not able to paint it in the same way I have painted. It is absolutely fine Since mountains will be having definitely unnatural shape. Let me add some more water so that my brush can move a little bit more smoother. I'll be finishing the remaining part of the mountain on the right area as well. We are almost done giving the outline for the Black Mountain. Now we'll be filling it with solid black color. Slowly take your round brush and add some solid black color in it. And added towards the bottom area. You just have to fill it with solid black color. No need to worry at all. Do it very slowly. Make sure that there isn't any space left between the masking tape and the watercolor paper that will not look nice while we remove this item will be also giving solid black color and the middle area. So as you can see and observe the movement of my round brush, I'm moving it in a similar direction so that it will give you a nice matte texture when it dries up and water accordingly. But make sure that you do not add excess amount of water. That will make your dark black tone a little bit lighter in shade. We very much careful while painting towards the bottom area. And as you can see, I'm not leaving any space between the masking tape and my watercolor paper. And you can observe the movement of my brush. And we are almost done painting the entire black color. This is how we have painted the front hill. So the difference between the snow hail and the front heel is at the front here, is going to be darker in shade, which is solid black. And there's no **** we have painted absolutely right to enhance it. And you can see the contrast between them. It looks beautiful. Now I'll be taking the tip of my round brush which is very pointed to, can add this particular point at the **** texture. Or we can say pointed shape to the frontal carefully by losing your detailing brush. In case you're not that much confident enough to the final painting, you can practice it on a rough scrap of paper first. Then you can come towards the final painting. And we're done painting the frontiers. Now let us move towards the next part. 9. Painting the Path: Hey everybody. So now we'll be painting the path, which is basically the way to this little hill, which is going to be absolutely easy and fun. And you'll be also observing a very nice technique using the detailing brush. I have my dating rush of size one and then my color palette. I have taken some solid white color, dab it on the tissue paper. Make sure that there isn't access amount of colonial brash and there isn't any water in the brush. Using the detailing runs, you just have to mean these little horizontal strokes. Those strokes are moving towards the left area for us. And as we move towards the left, atria will be just increasing the size of the horizontal strokes. No need to worry at all. Do it very slowly and in a very calm way. Now from the left area will be moving towards a little bit on the right side so that it looks like a bat and a ball effective way. So we just have to create this blurry texture initially. So for that we are just taking color only. There shouldn't be any water. Now, I'll be moving a little bit towards the right area. You can see we have created a nice angle which shows a nice path towards the small hill. Now while moving towards the right area, you can also increase the size of your horizontal strokes. No need to worry at all. You have to do it in a very natural and random way and just try to make your horizontal strokes a little bit more perfect. We're almost done painting the entire path. Let's enhance it by adding a little bit of solid white. Now, as I move towards the outer area, I wouldn't be making the path a little bit more. The horizontal strokes are looking really beautiful and the part is getting enhanced. So this is how you have to play with the white color. And you can see the bot is getting a nice contrast with the black background. No need to worry at all in case you are not that much confident enough to paint it on the final painting. You can practice it on a rough scrap of paper first and then you can come towards the final painting. We are almost done painting the way to the snowy hill. You can add as much as details as you want to. You can enhance the path by adding some more solid white color as well. So we are almost done painting the path. Now, let us move towards the next part. 10. Adding Details: Hey everybody. So now let us add some beautiful details to the front mountain that we have painted in black. So here I have my golden color. And in case you do not have a golden color, you can use an ocher. Yellow are as simple, vibrant yellow as well. So we'll be taking some golden color and the gap on the tube basically. And I'll be taking it in my color palette. So as you can see, we have taken a little bit of golden color in the color palette, and I'll be dabbing it in tissue paper as well, because we do not want it to be that much vibrant and we just have to enhance the Black Hills. I'll be using my detailing brush of size one to paint the details and the Black Mountains. We'll be starting by adding the beautiful color to the point. What we have to do is just simply start to enhance the hose by adding this rough strokes. On the left side, you can choose any either side of the mountains, but only one side has to be enhanced so that it looks a little bit more 3D and have a nice 3D texture. So whenever I'm finding pointy hoods, I'll be just adding the golden effect towards it. And this is not at all difficult. I'll be using the point of my detailing brush, which is very pointed so that I can add some more details using it. You just have to match it. As you can see, we have enhanced the left portion of the hills and the right portion is completely black. Now using the same techniques, what we are going to do is we are going to enhance the hills on the right portion as well. You just have to simply add this golden texture on the left of the point D hills. And you can also move your detailing brush and random direction and the lower parts so that you can enhance the black a little bit more. So again, I'll be repeating the same thing. Mountains will be having natural texture. So no need to worry, you can create your own natural shapes as well. We are almost done adding the details and you can see how beautiful the detail looks on the Black Mountain. Now let us move towards the final and the last part. 11. Painting the Moon: Hey everybody, We are almost done with the painting now, let us paint the moon, which is the final and the last element for the entire painting.

I've taken some solid white color and my detail brush and we'll be painting the moon. Be very much careful while doing this because we have a gradient background, which is the darker tone. The moon is going to be absolutely right. So simply use the tip of your detailing brush to make a C-shape initially. Now once you are done with the C-shaped want you are going to do is just try to make this issue a little bit thicker. In the middle area. Has to be pointed towards the tips.

What you can do it, you can practice it on and off, scrape off PayPal fast. And then you can come towards the final painting. Or else you can use your pencil, draw the moon, and then fill in love white color. We are done with the entire painting, and I'm very satisfied with the entire painting.
