Dreamland: A Simple Night Sky
A Painting Tutorial for Kids and Kids at Heart
Hi everyone, here's a new painting with basic and easy steps. I used this tutorial in @creativestreet's recent art workshop : Sining Autismo : A Painting Workshop for Persons with Austism. And they like it :)
See full post here.
So here are the materials that you'll need:
| Paint Brush | Flat and Pointed |
|---|---|
| Acrylic / Latex Paint | Black , Blue and White or a color of your choice |
| Sponge | For Stamping |
| Canvas | I used a stretched canvas, but you can also use a cardboard |
| Water | For Cleaning the Brush |
PROCESS:
Prepare the background by applying a black paint on the top of the canvas
Then apply a blue paint after the black one to create a gradient effect
Commercial : i used a toddler's brush on this tutorial :)
To complete the background, add a white paint on the remaining space of the canvas and make sure to mix it well with the blue one. You can add water (small part) on the painting to smoothen the gradient effect.
You can add more details on the background. You can also apply different colors such as violet, green or anything you want to show and express.
This is the most exciting part for me, the stars!!!
Using your brush and white paint with small amount of water ( that should be mixed very well) sprinkle the paint on the paint. You can tap your paint brush on top of your painting and aww the paint drops on your canvas. Apply as many as you want.
We will stamp a moon using a circular sponge with white paint.
Think where you want to put the moon.
Press the sponge against the canvas
And you have the moon.
Next is to add your landscape. In this part I added mountain range using white paint.
To add the tress, i used black paint and a fine brush
And then Add the leaves of your trees as much as you want to.
