(excuse the errors)
(1) I sketch the quote first, it depends on how you like to write it!
cuz if you go straight into writing... it& #39;ll be a srious mess i& #39;m telling you
(2) now transfer it to the paper that you& #39;ll use, as a calligrapher like me who uses watercolor, I use watercolor paper! don& #39;t use normal bondpaper, it& #39;ll just bleed. what& #39;s good when transfering it is you can change some parts!
(3) after that I& #39;ll use my Tombow dual brush pen N89 (warm grey) to fully cover the sketch, so you have a guide where to paint.
(5) clean you workspace and prepare the other materials you& #39;ll need in the next step, here I prepared my watercolors, my mixing pallete, water, and a size 3 brush from tokyo finds. it& #39;s better to use a small brush if your gonna mix colors or you& #39;ll paint small areas
(6)now I& #39;m preparing the colors that I& #39;ll use, since this is a quote from one of TayTay& #39;s songs in her album lover, I& #39;ll be using Purple, Pink, and Blue, I added white to them since I like pastel color, and added some shimmer using my pearlized watercolor from tokyo finds(
(7) now u paint, since I love mixing colors, this is hard, you really have to focus that is why there& #39;s a guide. you have to out the first colorand make sure it& #39;s still wet so that the two colors mix when u put the other one.
(8) y& #39;all it& #39;s hatd to fil with ur other hand, and this will make it a lot harder if ur hands are shaking, cuz one wrong move can sometimes ruin the whole piece.
(10) now we& #39;re done! just let it dry and ur done! but for me, it& #39;s still not done, since I& #39;ll still be putting details, and I& #39;m just letting it dry
(11) with my warm gray tombow that I used earlier, I& #39;ll use it again to make shadows this time, and with my white gelly roll I added more details with the letters
(12) and then you& #39;re done!
that is why this artworks that seem so easy should never be taken advantage by others, cuz some people don& #39;t know how hard it is to make them and the effort that we put in ithttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="πŸ₯Ί" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="πŸ’–" title="Sparkling heart" aria-label="Emoji: Sparkling heart">
someone asked for recommendation of materials, so I actually don& #39;t have any recommendations all are good! but I& #39;ll still share the mats I often use.
from the paper, I often use Tokyo Finds watercolor which has 300gsm , I also tried Berckley, Canson, and Fabriano and they are all good! If you use watercolor, I recommend papers starting from 200 gsm and above!
from the pearlized watercolors which is a watercolor that shimmers, for now I only used these from Tokyo Finds which costs P795 they are my favorite!
for detailing I recommend gelly roll pen for white thingy and micron pen!
and for the shadows and covering the pencil sketches! I recommend any brush pen that has a warm gray color like this one! it is Tombow Dual Brush Pen N89 (warm gray)t
and for watercolor! I only use Poster paint from dong-a and just mix is with water since it& #39;s very pigmented! https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="πŸ₯Ί" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="πŸ’–" title="Sparkling heart" aria-label="Emoji: Sparkling heart">
