Watercolor Galaxy Painting #1 - Nebulae Hair + FREE line art template (Skillshare)

I do believe coloring should be fun and not something you worries over and over. Not something that makes you even more frustrated and anxious. So come, take my class and discover the true joy of painting! In this class you will learn all my tricks on how to successfully paint a galaxy/ nebulae pattern hair.

In the class I'll explain:

  • My secret splattering technique
  • The most important thing to know when painting a galaxy pattern
  • My hack on how to transfer the linework onto watercolor paper
  • All along the class in an easy to follow and fun way

(And as a bonus I show you how I painted her face with aquarelle pencils)
By the end of this class you will get all the skills you need to paint a beautiful galaxy/ night sky patterned hair with watercolor.
After watching all the class videos I highly encourage you to try out what you’ve learnt.

  • Schedule some time to painting: This painting took me approximately 30 minutes from start to finish, so I advise you to count with a minimum of 45 minutes for the project. You don’t have to paint it all at once, it’s absolutely fine if you can paint just a bit at a time. Don’t rush, enjoy the process!
  • Prepare your materials: Transfer the line art to watercolor paper, get some brushes and watercolor paints. For this project you would also need a used, old toothbrush.
  • Relax: Before you start painting, I would highly recommend to take some deep breaths to calm your mind down. You will see how easier painting will become if you are not stressed out!
  • Ask for help: If something is not clear during the painting process feel free to ask me, I’m more than happy to help! :)
  • Share your project: Share your work in progress and final painting in the project gallery, I would love to see your progress and if you want me to I can give you some extra advices regarding your painting!*

Glazing and other Painting Techniques (Skillshare)

In this class you’ll learn the essential oil painting techniques: glazing, scumbling and impasto. Glazing is an amazing technique where you apply a transparent or semi-transparent layer of paint over another thoroughly dry layer of paint. It's wonderful for creating luminous colors, as well as water and lighting effects. I’ll show you how to mix your paint to prepare a glaze as well as practical applications for applying glazes to get luminous results that you couldn't otherwise achieve by using paint opaquely.
