Do you like to draw or paint? Well if you do, get those papers, pencils, and paintbrushes ready! I will show you the best tips and tricks so you can make a masterpiece that will leave everyone standing in awe! Get ready to make the most amazing painting you've ever made!
Ready to start? If you are, this will tell you all the things every artist should own to make the most amazing, absolutely greatest painting of all time in the history of the universe! When I paint, I use LOTS of sponges, some small and some giant. When you are painting, make sure to start with small utensils, then get larger. “Some tools I like to use when painting are palette knives, a stay-wet palette when I’m working in acrylic, and different sponges for texture.” says Mr.Fink, an art teacher at Groves High School.
Now we all know that in order to paint a masterpiece, we have to draw it first. So fasten up your seat-belts, and let's get to it! “First, do a drawing or two to get the picture that you’re going to paint just right before you start.” says Mr. Fink. “Second, make sure the background isn’t white. Try a grey, a warm yellow, or a medium brown. It will make the next few layers look better.” I agree with Mr. Fink, you want to make sure not to start with a white background, because when you are painting, it will not look like a masterpiece.
If you are still stuck, you may want to try and follow what Mr. Fink says, “I recommend mixing more water (but not much) with the paint for the first layer or two, then using thicker paint over the top of that when it is dry.” He goes on to say, “When painting on paper, I like to use watercolor paper or tag board, because it is thicker and doesn’t get wavy when it gets wet.” As a person who loves to pain, I agree that you want to use paint that will go with the paper. And also, if you are painting on regular, thin paper, use as little water as possible. Don’t flood the paper.
