Somehow, I buy this beautiful set of watercolor from my friend that buy directly from Japan. Gansai is Japanese for paint (s) or color pigment and Tambi means aesthetic. Maybe this is the Kuretake trademark.

Just understand the words ‘Made in Japan’

When I open the cover, suddenly, all this 36 colors haunted me…

Title : The Foggy Road

Love the opaque and vibrant characteristic that the colors offer, the texture very smooth, they are like between watercolors and gouache,  make them perform for detailing, seem suitable with my style. 

For my Meaningful Smile Series collection,

DISCLAIMER: I didn’t make of tutorial or something like that,
didn’t want to teach you to do this and that
(in fact, I’m still in the learning process), just want to share,
if you want to draw, draw from your inner heart, that better…

For the equipment and preparation, you can refer introduction of my previous entry : DIY : Oil Painting – Portrait  , I start with rough pencil sketch,  It doesn’t have to be exact, just for composition.

I use dark color for background to help me choose the right tone to mix and and to see relationship between main character and the background, lets it dry…

Playing with the shadow, use a little black and light color to adjust the face…

Do more adjustments in the face. Re-sketch with the pencil…

Focus on eyes, nose and mouth, mix the color until get the right tone for the skin, need more patient…using white color to marking the part that need lighting effect.

Adding more details at the mouth and the skin, try to balance the shadow between skin and shadow, to make color layers smooth, I used my fingers tip. Adjust body posture. Start building the background.

Once again, more details on the face, lighting and the background…

Make sure painting completely dry, then apply the varnish oil, put the frame and done!

Motivation: What important is, don’t give up and don’t be hesitate, this your arts, be proud

Lisa is one of my comic character.

Today, I would like to share the step by step how I draw using Corel Painter, the reason I used this magical software is, there are more closed to the traditional technique, more artistic and wonderful variety of brush variants the program offers.

Usually, I only make this 7 steps, enough, I didn’t make of tutorial or something like that, didn’t want to teach you to do this and that (in fact, I still in learning process), just want to share, if you want to draw, draw from your inner heart, that better…

Step 1: I start out by making a rough sketch at new layer, build the simple structure. I often use simple airbrushes.

Step 2: Then I add basic color using difference layer.

Step 3: focusing on the relationship between light and shadows.

Step 4: Make structure more solid.

Step 5: I create more details using oils and digital watercolor and focusing on the relationship between light and shadows.

Step 6: Need more details. Put the simple background.

Step 7: Then, until, I have to force my mind to stop before I continue this forever…
