It’s an iPad Pro and I activate the guided access that turns off the touch ability of the screen, being able to trace without moving the image underneath 🤍✨
This was very helpful, thank you! Most watercolor painters I've seen for floral and landscape start with the light and work towards the dark. That seems counterintuitive to me in some cases. As you said, the darks dictate where the lights will be, and that is also in keeping with what I've learned in oils and, in some ways acrylic. To me, it's much more intuitive to put in the darks first and form the lights around that than it is to try to be super subtle with the whites and lights and work down with glazing to the darks. Makes more sense to me. Dark to mid-tones is easier to see. Besides, if you end up coloring over your lights, you always have gouache to bring them back. Thanks again.
NO! You know you could have still used those paints, right? What a shame that you dumped them. You know, you could have covered that pan with cling wrap or Saran wrap and kept them in their pans until you wet them again ... or just simply wet them with a sprayer until they glued themselves in the pan again.
9:23 unless you've been tattooing for some time already and know what you're doing. You don't have the experience to make that comparison. If you can draw doesn't mean you can tattoo. If you can tattoo doesn't mean you can paint. Each one is different. And at the end of the day that's a pen not a needle.
Please don’t use these needles. I have found that mast cartridges have more flaws (barbs, inconsistent spacing) etc. Good for fake skin and practice, but imo you should be practicing with what you’ll be using on real skin. So just splurge, you can reuse your cartridges ON FAKE SKIN
Moms house tattoo studio lol this is what’s wrong with this generation… people don’t wanna learn how to tattoo for real n they can pretend to be whatever they want living with mommy
This was great, as an artist myself I was looking at more expensive machines in case the cheaper ones were so inferior that it would make your job hard.
I started a tattoo apprenticeship many years ago and it was quite frankly abusive, put me off for 15 years but I’m going to get myself back into it now, the internet has a lot more info available now , I learned very little in my apprenticeship because of the backwards mentality, it’s much more accessible now.
thank you very much, it's a very beautiful piece of art that you have created. Let me have a question: why don't you use pure white instead the gold ink? Gold ink is more creative but maybe white of the last waves is more realistic...
Have you ever considered using an airbrush to add highlights and gradients to heavy texture canvas's like that.. if nothing else it is a good way of making sure you get colour in all the pits and holes... wishing you the best with your future plans :)
A lil tip remember to have great lighting from all angles! So u dont have bad eyesight in the future, AND dont be scared of making the voltage higher to learn to move your hand a lil faster and cut time (finish sooner) but of course práctice lil by lil whatever is comfortable for u! 🤍 Hope this helps love:)
Thanks for the tips, Kalliopi ❤ as someone who also struggles with mental health and recently started proceeding with an art career, let me tell you that having a 9to5 actually doesn’t solve anything… Looking and applying to jobs in this market can also be EXTREMELY difficult on you and then the actual job might take so much of your time and brain capacity that it would completely kill your creativity and dreams. Structure is something you need to work on yourself, rather than relying on other people (like a boss) to create it for you. The boss will only create structure beneficial to them and their business, but not yours… Something that might help is dedicating few days to create a huge annual goal spread sheet with the main goal you want to achieve and then break it down to the monthly goals, weekly tasks and even day to day tasks. This helps to get the mental overload off you because everyday you wake up, you already have your agenda and set of tasks. The thing that sets us back the most is not having a clear goal in mind of what EXACTLY we want to achieve and we sporadically try to do a little of everything, then it doesn’t create a lot of impact and we start doubting ourselves and burn out… Be strong, we all in this together ❤
Hola! Love your content whether it is your art, you talking in 1st person about the life of an artist, life in general, mental health or just seeing you printing stickers XD
Thanks for your insights. Negotiation, that is something I am rubbish at. Blended is great, I use that too and I studied Interior Architecture. So not quite the same as Architecture but I too have a lot of Architecture and Interior Design books. Your books look chunky ! You have a lovely, friendly vibe to your videos. There is so much to learn and things are constantly changing. But it is an exciting time for artists. So many opportunities. Even with all the AI now. I think it will cause people to appreciate the real thing even more. Something created by a real human being, with love and care put into it. As for branding. Perhaps you could take a look at "brand archetypes". I found it helpful to try and find who I am and what I want to say to the world. Then you can use it to guide your brand. But, basically, your brand is you, not your art. It's about you and what you want to say.
hope you found my lil tips useful 🫠 can’t wait to keep exploring this new way of creating and you can too, the first 500 people to use my link skl.sh/kalliopilyviaki07241 will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare premium!
Sorry to disturb your peaceful moment honey but you built your business upon the blood 🩸 of the Palestinians in Palestine 🇵🇸 by purchasing a product from Amazon that funds this Genocide! You are complicit in this GENOCIDE 🩸🩸🩸🇮🇱
