HELLO Steemians!
Here's my second water colour painting. It's not very detailed becaise I still am learning on how to use this medium perfectly. It's not my original plan but since I wasn't able to get the bokeh style, I simply, changed my plans and just paint a random girl's portrait from my imagination.
It's quite amusing that I spent my whole night til dawn working on my first water colour painting which was my entry for contest. I slept at 4:15 then I woke up at 9:30 a.m. The moment I woke up, I took my pencil and sketchpad then started to sketch someting then paint. I think I'm addicted to do something and share it to all of you. So, this is the painting which I spent my whole day trying to finish to be able to let you all see it and I hope you can share you thoughts about it.
To all Filipinos out there, I think you can somehow guess my portrait's look a like celebrity. If you guess it right then good but I didn't intend it to look like her(if you guess who celebrity that is) 😂😂.
THE MATERIALS:
• 2B pencil(any pencil you're preferred to us)
•sketch pad or any kind of thick paper or water color paper
•Brush (I used berkeley 4 777R which is a round brush and Berkeley 1/8 333s which is a flat brush)
•water colour palette ( I used DONG-A 12 colour palette)
I bought the brush, the sketchpad and the water colour palette in National Bookstore.
THE PROCESS
1st
2nd I started painting the hair with chocolate brown as its base then I used the colors yellow, black, brown, orange and white for its strands and hair's details.
(This is the supposed to be bokeh that I was telling you about earlier. I didn't figure out how it would look nice so, I changed to portrait.)
3rd
I did the background of the portrait to cover my messed up plan 😥. I used the combination of black and blue. The corners awere painted tdarker and became lighter when closer to the woman.
4th
I tarted to paint the face using the combination of yellow, white and orange. Then for the lips, i used the colors white and red and a mixture of both with black.
5th
For the eyes, i used the mixture of white and blue and a add a little bit of green.
5th
(I used another brush to blend the colors thoroughly)
AND DONE!
Please share your thoughts about my work, upvote and resteem.
HAPPY STEEMING!
