A look at last Saturday's balloon festival、I tried painting it in watercolor with some changes.。
At first glance, it seemed simple and easy, but、It's surprisingly difficult to draw。first、To darken the entire screen (while keeping it clear)、In other words, it is technically difficult to depict the feeling of night.。And、No matter how dark it is, a white balloon must look white.、The red balloon on the left must appear red.、How to use "brightness and color" etc.。
The bright light on the ground and the brightness of the burner may be difficult.、Although many people may imagine that、It's actually no big deal。Rather、Saturation of the red to blue color stripes in the central balloon、Representation of lines at the joints of balloons, etc.、Although simple, it requires a combination of the ability to discern colors and the ability to properly depict them.。It took 3 hours even though it was a small screen (F4)。
I think it would be much easier to paint this with oil paint.。subtle gradation control、Oil painting is much more streamlined than watercolor.。Another thing I thought of was、drawing with colored pencils on black paper。This also has restrictions、Oh dear、I feel like this would be easier to draw than watercolor as well.。
If you think about it、Especially for transparent watercolor, dissolve the paint thinly.、This is a technique that takes advantage of the whiteness of the underlying paper.、It's no surprise that I don't like dark landscapes.。That's why、This doesn't mean you can give up。If you draw it, you can do it、I also think。
