Emotions 1 (Skillshare)

Offered by Skillshare,

Welcome to another Beginner's Watercolor Portrait Class! I am going to be teaching you how to paint emotions in this series. This is the first one and there will be another class to come. In this class, I am going to be demonstrating how to paint sadness. Through a new technique that I will be introducing for this class, I will be showing you step-by-step how to paint a face of someone who looks as if they have been crying or are about to cry.

What You'll Need :

Watercolor Set
Watercolor brushes running from small to medium and even large (for the hair)
Pencil and eraser
Watercolor paper, recommended weight for beginners is 140lb / 300g

Grab your utensils, and let's begin to paint!
Hey Guys!
Thank you for taking the class, now....it's your turn! Paint your own version of a sad portrait. It can show similar emotions such as worry, anxiety or distress. Have a go at it and share with the rest of class. Honestly speaking, I LOVE seeing how you guys interpret the classes. Can't wait.

Improve your Drawing Accuracy! (Skillshare)

I've been struggling with this problem from the beginning. Even with traditional media, and especially with digital. For years I thought artists who could perfectly guide their hand where their brain intended must have had some kind of super power. Or they were using a lazy mouse. But there's no lazy mouse in traditional drawing!
