1 00:00:00,950 --> 00:00:02,469 - Now that my painting is dry, 2 00:00:02,469 --> 00:00:04,309 we're going to move onto my favorite part 3 00:00:04,309 --> 00:00:05,939 which is ball point pen. 4 00:00:05,939 --> 00:00:07,450 Any ball point pen will do. 5 00:00:07,450 --> 00:00:10,449 We're going to take it and this is a great jumpstart 6 00:00:10,449 --> 00:00:11,619 into abstracting. 7 00:00:11,619 --> 00:00:14,519 We've got the rough painted outlines here 8 00:00:14,519 --> 00:00:17,260 and now we're gonna fill them in, but not traditionally, 9 00:00:17,260 --> 00:00:18,160 we're gonna fill them in more 10 00:00:18,160 --> 00:00:20,519 as a doodle style, a freestyle. 11 00:00:20,519 --> 00:00:22,129 I think of this as an outlining 12 00:00:22,129 --> 00:00:23,949 as well as filling in. 13 00:00:23,949 --> 00:00:26,559 So, this flower here, you can see, 14 00:00:26,559 --> 00:00:28,519 it could be all these petals. 15 00:00:28,519 --> 00:00:30,550 If I were drawing realistically, 16 00:00:30,550 --> 00:00:31,940 that is what I would do. 17 00:00:31,940 --> 00:00:35,890 But I'm going to, instead, interpret this loosely. 18 00:00:35,890 --> 00:00:38,539 So I'm gonna take this and show you how here, 19 00:00:38,539 --> 00:00:39,460 which is that shape. 20 00:00:39,460 --> 00:00:41,229 I'll do the center as a circle 21 00:00:41,229 --> 00:00:43,320 and I'm doing it off center intentionally. 22 00:00:43,320 --> 00:00:44,829 And then probably just scribbling here 23 00:00:44,829 --> 00:00:47,380 because there's a whole bunch of information there. 24 00:00:49,039 --> 00:00:52,390 And then we could just do some, 25 00:00:52,390 --> 00:00:57,340 you can see they're like squares, squared off petals, 26 00:00:57,340 --> 00:00:59,979 maybe some bigger ones. 27 00:00:59,979 --> 00:01:01,509 Zigzag. 28 00:01:01,509 --> 00:01:05,200 And then here I see all these petals lying on each other 29 00:01:05,200 --> 00:01:07,442 so I'm gonna do some loops. 30 00:01:09,750 --> 00:01:12,670 Obviously not a realistic flower, 31 00:01:12,670 --> 00:01:16,049 but so much fun, more playful. 32 00:01:16,049 --> 00:01:17,903 Now I do see some lines here. 33 00:01:18,980 --> 00:01:21,129 And that's what I'm gonna do is just keep going 34 00:01:21,129 --> 00:01:22,653 through this piece. 35 00:01:24,790 --> 00:01:29,569 Adding more information to those paint strokes we made. 36 00:01:29,569 --> 00:01:30,939 Maybe breaking it up. 37 00:01:30,939 --> 00:01:32,700 You can see a color separation here, 38 00:01:32,700 --> 00:01:35,510 so I'm gonna use that to give myself some sections. 39 00:01:35,510 --> 00:01:36,950 Think of them as painting sections. 40 00:01:36,950 --> 00:01:39,510 So, I've already slightly done that. 41 00:01:39,510 --> 00:01:40,780 I'll do some more. 42 00:01:40,780 --> 00:01:42,129 And I'll do that with these here. 43 00:01:42,129 --> 00:01:44,829 See how these are different colors? 44 00:01:44,829 --> 00:01:46,763 So maybe I'll use that. 45 00:01:51,879 --> 00:01:53,219 And then, you know, you get an idea, 46 00:01:53,219 --> 00:01:54,620 you just keep going with it. 47 00:01:56,439 --> 00:01:59,063 We're kinda breaking them up into sections as we go. 48 00:02:00,069 --> 00:02:01,750 And think of them as sections, 49 00:02:01,750 --> 00:02:05,629 maybe as you would doodling, where you can color in. 50 00:02:05,629 --> 00:02:06,983 We'll just be painting in. 51 00:02:14,189 --> 00:02:16,590 Leaves, it's fun to give them their segments 52 00:02:16,590 --> 00:02:20,169 but not make it make sense, like change it up. 53 00:02:20,169 --> 00:02:23,552 So you see, I've got horizontal, some angled. 54 00:02:26,050 --> 00:02:30,569 You can go over the space, off the space. 55 00:02:30,569 --> 00:02:32,490 We can even add some that I didn't catch, 56 00:02:32,490 --> 00:02:35,302 maybe like this as a oval here. 57 00:02:44,319 --> 00:02:47,069 Breaking this into sections, this petal. 58 00:02:47,069 --> 00:02:48,819 Now I'm gonna go over where these looked 59 00:02:48,819 --> 00:02:52,229 very kind of traditional or on their way to be. 60 00:02:52,229 --> 00:02:54,620 I'm gonna add some of the filigree, 61 00:02:54,620 --> 00:02:59,620 or the little leaf part, and make it more scribbled. 62 00:03:01,009 --> 00:03:03,650 Loose, free, playful. 63 00:03:03,650 --> 00:03:07,210 Challenge yourself to see differently, see shapes. 64 00:03:07,210 --> 00:03:09,240 The outline in that. 65 00:03:09,240 --> 00:03:13,022 Let go of what you think of as the traditional floral. 66 00:03:15,000 --> 00:03:16,439 And I'm just moving around the piece 67 00:03:16,439 --> 00:03:17,379 and covering all of them. 68 00:03:17,379 --> 00:03:21,449 I wanna do this guy here because I'm loving 69 00:03:21,449 --> 00:03:23,233 these little squigglies. 70 00:03:30,169 --> 00:03:32,699 This is where your creativity comes into play. 71 00:03:32,699 --> 00:03:35,812 Allow yourself to play, freedom. 72 00:03:39,979 --> 00:03:42,919 Makes abstract not sound intimidating 73 00:03:42,919 --> 00:03:44,379 'cause you're just doodling on top 74 00:03:44,379 --> 00:03:46,323 of some shapes that you saw. 75 00:03:48,060 --> 00:03:50,389 This flower's a fun challenge. 76 00:03:50,389 --> 00:03:52,919 I think I'll do a bunch of zigzags so that I'm 77 00:03:57,229 --> 00:03:59,293 not doing individual petals. 78 00:04:00,580 --> 00:04:02,889 And then the center, again, maybe I'll do 79 00:04:05,479 --> 00:04:07,263 just a bunch of dots. 80 00:04:12,400 --> 00:04:14,539 So you can see that is not a great representation 81 00:04:14,539 --> 00:04:17,600 of that, yet it's still recognizable as a flower. 82 00:04:17,600 --> 00:04:21,550 You got a lot of playful and abstract design to it. 83 00:04:21,550 --> 00:04:24,319 I'm gonna go onto some of these little dainty leaves 84 00:04:24,319 --> 00:04:26,980 but I'm going to interpret them just as 85 00:04:26,980 --> 00:04:31,980 a bunch of loose squiggly circles. 86 00:04:35,699 --> 00:04:40,050 And now going to this piece, addressing it. 87 00:04:40,050 --> 00:04:42,798 We could do almost like a box in the center. 88 00:04:42,798 --> 00:04:45,548 (pen scratching) 89 00:04:48,389 --> 00:04:51,980 You don't have to finish a flower the way you started it, 90 00:04:51,980 --> 00:04:54,389 this was big, rectangle, squares, 91 00:04:54,389 --> 00:04:58,600 now I did some triangles and then some loops. 92 00:04:58,600 --> 00:05:00,009 You know, U-shaped. 93 00:05:00,009 --> 00:05:04,762 That helps make it more abstracted if you change it up. 94 00:05:06,910 --> 00:05:11,050 I see that petal here looks like a bunch of U shapes 95 00:05:11,050 --> 00:05:13,300 so I'm gonna go ahead and use that. 96 00:05:13,300 --> 00:05:14,730 Not trying to make it look like a petal, 97 00:05:14,730 --> 00:05:17,579 but that as the idea that it gives me 98 00:05:17,579 --> 00:05:22,579 to abstract this flower using a different type of pattern. 99 00:05:24,920 --> 00:05:27,870 Here on these leaves you can see that 100 00:05:27,870 --> 00:05:30,269 the paint itself left some ridges 101 00:05:30,269 --> 00:05:32,560 so I just used that as my design element 102 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:36,060 and broke it up because of the ridges that already existed 103 00:05:36,899 --> 00:05:37,949 because of the paint. 104 00:05:40,230 --> 00:05:41,550 Could do that the same here. 105 00:05:41,550 --> 00:05:43,360 I had a little lighter painted area 106 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,632 so I kinda highlighted that. 107 00:05:48,269 --> 00:05:52,029 And you can see, I've even stopped referencing 108 00:05:52,029 --> 00:05:55,449 the flowers and I'm just kind of breaking up 109 00:05:55,449 --> 00:05:57,600 these sections any way. 110 00:05:57,600 --> 00:06:00,459 No big deal, my pen just went off further than I wanted. 111 00:06:00,459 --> 00:06:02,800 Fine, I'm gonna go ahead and just widen 112 00:06:02,800 --> 00:06:04,752 my leaf to incorporate it. 113 00:06:11,120 --> 00:06:13,339 If you break the leaf up going horizontally one way 114 00:06:13,339 --> 00:06:15,040 you could go vertically the other. 115 00:06:16,019 --> 00:06:18,733 Make a triangle here and then. 116 00:06:27,230 --> 00:06:29,800 Then, looking at the piece, I pretty much outlined 117 00:06:29,800 --> 00:06:33,350 all the flowers or filled in all the floral petal 118 00:06:33,350 --> 00:06:35,000 and information areas. 119 00:06:35,000 --> 00:06:39,110 What I am going to do now is just with my pen 120 00:06:39,110 --> 00:06:42,110 make some more leaves just to tie it all together. 121 00:06:42,110 --> 00:06:43,470 I've got some open spaces. 122 00:06:43,470 --> 00:06:48,470 And I'm just gonna do some straight rectangles or triangles. 123 00:06:48,639 --> 00:06:51,189 I don't know any leaves that grow like that 124 00:06:51,189 --> 00:06:56,189 but they will read as leaves in our abstracted floral. 125 00:06:56,610 --> 00:06:58,160 It's really cool. 126 00:06:58,160 --> 00:06:59,930 This is a great way you could balance it out. 127 00:06:59,930 --> 00:07:02,879 We could also decide, oh I wanna get another flower now 128 00:07:02,879 --> 00:07:04,319 and put it here. 129 00:07:04,319 --> 00:07:06,529 You know, change up your composition, 130 00:07:06,529 --> 00:07:09,000 but you can also just use your imagination 131 00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:10,389 and fill in spaces. 132 00:07:10,389 --> 00:07:11,583 Circles work great. 133 00:07:15,959 --> 00:07:18,589 Could be anything, petals or the, you know, 134 00:07:18,589 --> 00:07:20,512 represent whatever we want them to. 135 00:07:21,980 --> 00:07:23,949 And we'll define that by the colors we choose 136 00:07:23,949 --> 00:07:25,329 to paint them in. 137 00:07:25,329 --> 00:07:28,449 Just gonna add another couple of these weird triangle, 138 00:07:28,449 --> 00:07:33,420 long triangle leaves for balance. 139 00:07:33,420 --> 00:07:37,139 So I'm looking around the piece and it feels 140 00:07:37,139 --> 00:07:39,819 like I've gotten everything kind of penned in 141 00:07:39,819 --> 00:07:42,189 and enough interest. 142 00:07:42,189 --> 00:07:45,480 Maybe just something right here, another leaf. 143 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:46,769 I'm happy with the pen work 144 00:07:46,769 --> 00:07:49,259 that's all over the painted areas now. 145 00:07:49,259 --> 00:07:51,430 I'm going to switch to pick up some paint. 146 00:07:51,430 --> 00:07:53,459 I'm going to pick some new colors 147 00:07:53,459 --> 00:07:56,649 similar to the ones that we started with in the same family, 148 00:07:56,649 --> 00:07:59,529 but just different enough. 149 00:07:59,529 --> 00:08:02,329 Put them in my pallette so I've got them to choose from. 150 00:08:05,720 --> 00:08:09,550 Maybe I'll give myself a nice contrast color here 151 00:08:09,550 --> 00:08:11,072 than anything we've got. 152 00:08:13,180 --> 00:08:15,023 Hot pink is always fun. 153 00:08:19,339 --> 00:08:23,180 And then some of these subtle oranges would be nice 154 00:08:24,060 --> 00:08:26,930 with the neutrals that we had. 155 00:08:26,930 --> 00:08:27,822 Peach. 156 00:08:31,939 --> 00:08:33,373 Brighter orange. 157 00:08:39,379 --> 00:08:43,840 Then a creamier peach and even some white. 158 00:08:45,970 --> 00:08:47,799 I love the addition of white 159 00:08:47,799 --> 00:08:50,500 and it's really great for mixing these other colors. 160 00:08:50,500 --> 00:08:55,049 So we'll get just a slightly different tone or shade. 161 00:08:55,049 --> 00:09:00,049 And now I'm gonna start with a round brush. 162 00:09:00,929 --> 00:09:03,230 This is a number five. 163 00:09:03,230 --> 00:09:06,462 I like this nice soft bristle here. 164 00:09:08,820 --> 00:09:10,399 It will give me some flexibility. 165 00:09:10,399 --> 00:09:12,543 I'm gonna mix a couple colors. 166 00:09:15,250 --> 00:09:18,692 And go ahead and fill in areas. 167 00:09:28,490 --> 00:09:32,899 We can come back if it's sheer and you're seeing through. 168 00:09:32,899 --> 00:09:37,003 I'll let that dry and come back with other coats. 169 00:09:38,980 --> 00:09:42,470 I'm going kinda all over this flower intentionally 170 00:09:42,470 --> 00:09:47,470 because generally when I paint a flower more realistically 171 00:09:47,509 --> 00:09:51,220 you'd have a shadow on one side and that would impact, 172 00:09:51,220 --> 00:09:52,580 you know, and it'd be more 173 00:09:52,580 --> 00:09:56,580 general variations or gradiations. 174 00:09:56,580 --> 00:10:01,580 I'm going for abstract, I'm going for unexpected. 175 00:10:01,720 --> 00:10:06,039 Not worrying about staying in the lines perfectly. 176 00:10:06,039 --> 00:10:09,590 We can either go back in with pencil, which we'll do some, 177 00:10:09,590 --> 00:10:13,750 or leave it like that as our abstracted florals 178 00:10:13,750 --> 00:10:16,039 so that makes sense. 179 00:10:16,039 --> 00:10:19,263 Maybe something high contrast in the center of this flower. 180 00:10:24,190 --> 00:10:26,289 And because I have it on my brush 181 00:10:26,289 --> 00:10:30,009 I think I'll add some here and other places in my painting 182 00:10:30,899 --> 00:10:33,429 just to balance that out. 183 00:10:33,429 --> 00:10:35,809 You can see sometimes I'm getting quick 184 00:10:35,809 --> 00:10:40,259 and kinda filling in more than one area that I have. 185 00:10:40,259 --> 00:10:43,200 Like that was two or three pen lines. 186 00:10:43,200 --> 00:10:44,072 That's fine. 187 00:10:46,409 --> 00:10:47,679 Anything goes with these, though. 188 00:10:47,679 --> 00:10:52,080 The point is to allow yourself to play 189 00:10:52,080 --> 00:10:56,700 and figure out what feels free so that you are finding 190 00:10:58,649 --> 00:11:00,793 your way into abstracting. 191 00:11:04,529 --> 00:11:06,572 More stylizing the flowers. 192 00:11:11,370 --> 00:11:14,700 And notice I'm not washing my brush in between generally. 193 00:11:14,700 --> 00:11:16,923 I like the mixed colors. 194 00:11:23,610 --> 00:11:25,350 That one I'm definitely gonna want 195 00:11:25,350 --> 00:11:29,049 to go back in and do some of those pen lines 196 00:11:29,049 --> 00:11:30,629 because it's looking a little bit almost 197 00:11:30,629 --> 00:11:34,409 too traditional of a flower here. 198 00:11:34,409 --> 00:11:39,052 But putting the pen back will change up the segments. 199 00:11:40,210 --> 00:11:43,590 I'm holding my brush loosely and, you know, 200 00:11:43,590 --> 00:11:46,389 maybe halfway up so that I don't have 201 00:11:46,389 --> 00:11:51,389 a real grasp or tight control on this soft brush 202 00:11:53,889 --> 00:11:58,889 as it hits to, I want to embrace that unexpected mark. 203 00:12:06,379 --> 00:12:08,409 There's really no rhyme or reason to why 204 00:12:08,409 --> 00:12:10,820 I'm choosing certain colors other than 205 00:12:10,820 --> 00:12:14,769 I am thinking about almost balance, you know, 206 00:12:14,769 --> 00:12:18,299 subconsciously trying to create some balance 207 00:12:18,299 --> 00:12:22,373 by making sure to touch in three areas of the painting. 208 00:12:23,379 --> 00:12:25,320 And then I wanna make sure this is very different 209 00:12:25,320 --> 00:12:26,932 so I am gonna wash my brush. 210 00:12:30,179 --> 00:12:34,129 And just go with this straight orange. 211 00:12:34,129 --> 00:12:37,870 Maybe I'll add a little bit of red here, red-orange. 212 00:12:37,870 --> 00:12:38,702 Vermilion. 213 00:12:44,490 --> 00:12:46,149 I don't want all the flowers to be painted 214 00:12:46,149 --> 00:12:47,580 with the exact same colors. 215 00:12:47,580 --> 00:12:50,440 And you can use your base colors that you did 216 00:12:50,440 --> 00:12:53,409 to let you know which ones you want to be different. 217 00:12:53,409 --> 00:12:55,690 All these purple ones I'll use. 218 00:12:55,690 --> 00:12:58,243 More of the vermilion and the orange. 219 00:12:59,200 --> 00:13:04,200 On the lighter pink I'll use the hot pink and peach. 220 00:13:18,259 --> 00:13:20,962 I wanna just show you with the leaves. 221 00:13:22,306 --> 00:13:24,690 I'm gonna go ahead and take this slightly 222 00:13:24,690 --> 00:13:26,393 different shade of blue. 223 00:13:28,259 --> 00:13:32,250 And you know what, I'll even use the original painted color 224 00:13:32,250 --> 00:13:34,033 and add some white to that. 225 00:13:37,029 --> 00:13:38,740 And hopefully it won't, you'll embrace 226 00:13:38,740 --> 00:13:40,962 these happy mistakes that we make. 227 00:13:50,230 --> 00:13:52,980 I see the petal pen marks so I'm just going 228 00:13:52,980 --> 00:13:54,480 to leave that for the petals 229 00:13:54,480 --> 00:13:56,692 that I'll paint on top of it. 230 00:14:00,509 --> 00:14:02,190 Just going along and adding some of 231 00:14:02,190 --> 00:14:06,879 this lighter blue for interest and contrast 232 00:14:06,879 --> 00:14:09,110 to the leaves I've already made. 233 00:14:09,110 --> 00:14:11,482 And I'm just filling in the line work. 234 00:14:12,450 --> 00:14:15,879 Here, my paint, my pen was not outside 235 00:14:15,879 --> 00:14:17,299 so I'm just gonna ahead and fill that in 236 00:14:17,299 --> 00:14:20,070 and then I'll know, I'll go back with the pen 237 00:14:20,070 --> 00:14:21,592 and outline that. 238 00:14:23,899 --> 00:14:28,610 Some of the random little triangle leaf shapes we made, 239 00:14:28,610 --> 00:14:29,812 I'm gonna paint in. 240 00:14:31,600 --> 00:14:35,592 Elongated triangle, loosely interpreted triangle. 241 00:14:45,100 --> 00:14:47,039 Gonna dip into the white just so that 242 00:14:47,039 --> 00:14:50,562 I get a slightly different color, not all exactly the same. 243 00:15:01,059 --> 00:15:02,419 And it's probably hard to see, 244 00:15:02,419 --> 00:15:04,830 but I did do some horizontal lines 245 00:15:04,830 --> 00:15:08,200 so I'm gonna fill those segments in 246 00:15:08,200 --> 00:15:10,029 with a slightly different color 247 00:15:12,419 --> 00:15:17,419 to accentuate that kind of playful random marking. 248 00:15:19,970 --> 00:15:23,340 You certainly don't have to fill in every line 249 00:15:23,340 --> 00:15:26,519 segment that you made with the pen, 250 00:15:26,519 --> 00:15:31,269 you can let some pen just be there 251 00:15:31,269 --> 00:15:35,383 and have its own interest and focal point sort of. 252 00:15:59,200 --> 00:16:01,720 Okay, I'm just kinda looking back and seeing 253 00:16:01,720 --> 00:16:03,970 do I have more leaves that I wanted to add? 254 00:16:03,970 --> 00:16:06,442 Fill in with this blue. 255 00:16:07,649 --> 00:16:11,139 Kind of doing a general overview of the whole piece 256 00:16:11,139 --> 00:16:13,129 as far as the leaves go. 257 00:16:13,129 --> 00:16:14,830 Sometimes, at this point, I'm not sure what 258 00:16:14,830 --> 00:16:17,523 were petals or what were leaves and that's just fine. 259 00:16:30,190 --> 00:16:34,149 I think I've pretty much covered most of those 260 00:16:34,149 --> 00:16:36,273 and now I'm gonna switch back to petals. 261 00:16:38,289 --> 00:16:42,139 And filling in all the other areas 262 00:16:44,710 --> 00:16:46,500 with these newer colors. 263 00:16:46,500 --> 00:16:49,639 Gonna add a little bit more of this 264 00:16:49,639 --> 00:16:52,049 'cause I mixed so many colors into it 265 00:16:52,049 --> 00:16:54,370 that it wasn't as quite as clean. 266 00:16:54,370 --> 00:16:55,712 And let's see. 267 00:16:57,399 --> 00:16:59,110 Still have hot pink. 268 00:16:59,110 --> 00:17:01,102 Let's do some neon orange. 269 00:17:08,950 --> 00:17:12,579 You can use it straight as it comes for some petals 270 00:17:12,579 --> 00:17:17,579 and then I will mix with white or another color for variety. 271 00:17:22,869 --> 00:17:26,009 Let's see, let's put some, I feel I've got big pop here, 272 00:17:26,009 --> 00:17:30,692 let's have another pop over here on this flower. 273 00:17:41,200 --> 00:17:43,690 I don't like how this one flower's standing out. 274 00:17:43,690 --> 00:17:47,759 It's kind of muddy, so I'm gonna add some bright to that 275 00:17:47,759 --> 00:17:51,119 and we'll go in and re-add lines after it's dry 276 00:17:52,599 --> 00:17:54,163 with the pen, pen lines. 277 00:18:08,190 --> 00:18:10,089 This whole area looked really big, 278 00:18:10,089 --> 00:18:12,029 so I went ahead and added some even though 279 00:18:12,029 --> 00:18:15,886 there wasn't pen and I will just add some pen, 280 00:18:18,109 --> 00:18:21,910 and this is dry, and break it up as if I had done 281 00:18:21,910 --> 00:18:25,363 that with my original pen pass through. 282 00:18:31,490 --> 00:18:32,323 Let's see. 283 00:18:32,323 --> 00:18:34,859 So I've got some of that really hot here, 284 00:18:34,859 --> 00:18:37,470 these areas, and this kinda just falling away 285 00:18:37,470 --> 00:18:41,069 so I wanna balance it out doing some maybe darker. 286 00:18:41,069 --> 00:18:43,982 Kinda tie in this color, balance it. 287 00:19:20,119 --> 00:19:22,430 Right here you can see that I quickly did 288 00:19:22,430 --> 00:19:24,960 the circle painting and then when we did pen 289 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:27,789 I didn't outline it so I'm just going to put paint 290 00:19:27,789 --> 00:19:32,789 in some marks as if and then pen into it when it's dry. 291 00:19:34,789 --> 00:19:36,029 Outline it. 292 00:19:36,029 --> 00:19:39,119 Okay, just gonna make sure I have a few different 293 00:19:39,119 --> 00:19:42,000 colors on each flower now so that nothing 294 00:19:42,000 --> 00:19:45,480 is just a solid color as it was originally 295 00:19:45,480 --> 00:19:47,323 when we started painting. 296 00:19:55,680 --> 00:19:58,369 Here there were a lot of loose squiggles and shapes 297 00:19:58,369 --> 00:20:02,873 so I'm just very quickly painting those. 298 00:20:04,039 --> 00:20:07,609 I do like to fill in all the dry areas on the flowers, 299 00:20:07,609 --> 00:20:10,740 so I'm looking here for any wood that's showing through 300 00:20:10,740 --> 00:20:15,470 within the flower design from painting or pen work. 301 00:20:15,470 --> 00:20:16,353 Let's see. 302 00:20:25,859 --> 00:20:28,619 Let me do a quick overview and see if I've got 303 00:20:28,619 --> 00:20:32,313 some paint on all those areas. 304 00:20:34,309 --> 00:20:35,792 I think we do. 305 00:20:37,480 --> 00:20:40,440 And if that's the case, I'm just gonna kinda go 306 00:20:40,440 --> 00:20:43,160 with my eye and my brush at the same time 307 00:20:43,160 --> 00:20:48,113 and hit anything that looks like it hasn't been touched. 308 00:20:50,976 --> 00:20:54,769 A little too much water, so I'll pick up some more paint. 309 00:20:54,769 --> 00:20:56,539 Or anything that's looking really sheer 310 00:20:56,539 --> 00:20:58,853 'cause that's not the look I was going for. 311 00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:03,069 Not to say that you couldn't though. 312 00:21:03,069 --> 00:21:04,353 If you like that. 313 00:21:05,559 --> 00:21:08,603 Add there where it had gone out of the line. 314 00:21:16,950 --> 00:21:21,950 Okay, think I'm going to now just give a once over 315 00:21:23,539 --> 00:21:25,670 with your eye, make sure that you could, you know, 316 00:21:25,670 --> 00:21:27,029 kinda blur your eyes a little bit 317 00:21:27,029 --> 00:21:28,962 to make sure that it feels balanced. 318 00:21:29,859 --> 00:21:33,519 Usually if you've got like triangles of color it'll work, 319 00:21:33,519 --> 00:21:37,702 you know, of interest with darks or these super brights. 320 00:21:38,609 --> 00:21:40,769 It works if it's usually in three spots. 321 00:21:40,769 --> 00:21:42,799 Oh, I see a parched area here so I'm just 322 00:21:42,799 --> 00:21:46,640 gonna go ahead and add a little bit of blue in that 323 00:21:46,640 --> 00:21:48,022 where the wood is showing. 324 00:21:53,740 --> 00:21:56,319 And then I'm gonna let this dry. 325 00:21:56,319 --> 00:21:58,390 I'm going to use my pen to fill in the details 326 00:21:58,390 --> 00:21:59,789 and kinda clean up some of those marks 327 00:21:59,789 --> 00:22:02,173 I made with the paint as I was filling in. 328 00:22:07,259 --> 00:22:09,950 Sort of redefining some of the pen lines 329 00:22:09,950 --> 00:22:14,759 that were there before or some of the strokes from 330 00:22:14,759 --> 00:22:17,972 the brush when I painted it in. 331 00:22:28,529 --> 00:22:31,759 I'm just trying to make sure that any paint marks 332 00:22:31,759 --> 00:22:36,730 look intentional and have a purpose. 333 00:22:36,730 --> 00:22:40,143 You can see there I was just outlining the stroke. 334 00:22:44,779 --> 00:22:46,883 I'm just working my way around the piece. 335 00:22:49,119 --> 00:22:52,539 Kind of counterclockwise for no reason. 336 00:22:52,539 --> 00:22:54,460 But just to make sure I catch everything. 337 00:22:54,460 --> 00:22:56,500 If you just choose one starting point 338 00:22:56,500 --> 00:22:58,960 and then work your way all the way around 339 00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:02,750 you'll catch any of those spots that you might miss 340 00:23:02,750 --> 00:23:07,750 if you just went with no method to the madness. 341 00:23:21,279 --> 00:23:24,089 It's a really relaxing stage. 342 00:23:24,089 --> 00:23:25,313 Here, enjoyable. 343 00:23:26,490 --> 00:23:28,069 Now I have to decide what I'm gonna do 344 00:23:28,069 --> 00:23:29,789 about something like this flower 345 00:23:29,789 --> 00:23:33,230 that I didn't outline in the beginning. 346 00:23:33,230 --> 00:23:37,039 I could choose to, when I do my outside paint, 347 00:23:37,039 --> 00:23:38,220 just paint in there, but I'm not. 348 00:23:38,220 --> 00:23:41,309 I'm going to outline these 'cause I think they look cool 349 00:23:42,420 --> 00:23:44,259 being all over the place, you know, 350 00:23:44,259 --> 00:23:47,829 not starting in one point or another. 351 00:23:47,829 --> 00:23:52,829 But don't despair if this part feels too exacting, it's not. 352 00:23:53,619 --> 00:23:56,400 We are still going to go in later 353 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:58,880 so there's still a chance for cleanup. 354 00:23:58,880 --> 00:24:00,900 If you are not enjoying this part 355 00:24:00,900 --> 00:24:04,222 and don't wanna be too meticulous here, that's fine too. 356 00:24:10,950 --> 00:24:13,970 Okay, I'm pleased with that and I'm going to move on 357 00:24:13,970 --> 00:24:15,319 to painting the background.
