A tutorial and sketch of how I paint faces in my sketchbook! Faces are one of the most daunting, but equally rewarding things to paint and draw! I also did a mini Q&A session too, and hope you find some of these topics interesting! #brbchasingdreams

Hi! These are beautiful! One tip for doing darker skin tones, try using a light wash of orange or purple-blue ish (for an even darker skintone ) for an under tone. It can bring more life to the skin. 😊

@camilanunez37 6 лет назад

First of all...I like you painting during drawings. I love your draws, you're amazing. I am a beginner for english so forgive me if something is wrong in my message: I'm a student of Illustration and animation in Venezuela, you and your drawings inspire me to keep going, to practice more and get better in this horrible situation of my country. I never miss a single update in your instagram. A fan, with love, Camila.

@kelogsloops 6 лет назад

Firstly, your english is perfectly fine Camila! Don't you worry :) Thank you so much for supporting and following my work, it really made me smile so much to hear that you never miss my posts haha. Please continue to keep drawing and practicing and never give up!!

@Piss118 5 лет назад

You can use white pens

@marsatkinson8224 5 лет назад

or frisket!

@aki-cy4ev 5 лет назад

You can use white ink/pens after you finish the painting OR use drawing gum (aka masking fluid) to cover the areas you want to protect. With gum, you just rub it off once the painting's dry! When using drawing gum, I suggest you put it on the paper before you start painting because I've noticed when you rub it off later, it lifts off any watercolor underneath. Also, wait for the gum to dry properly before painting (doesn't take too long) and if you don't get a drawing gum marker, you can always use brushes. To protect your brushes, wash them with soap before hand and don't rinse out the soap! Use them like that and then rinse them out again after use.

@Medronawow 6 лет назад

Your mind blowing work is the reason why I started water coloring! I've seen quite a lot of watercolor related RU-vid videos and your work most certainly shines through! As a suggestion, make a video on where to put highlights (or leaving dry spots) for different objects/materials since it's a quite delicate thing to master & is super important!

@grandmabarby 6 лет назад

In my humble opinion, I find your voice relaxing. And lets face it, a mellow and relaxed mind is almost the very foundation of painting. I'm just starting my love for watercolor, and at 65 its better late than never! Your teaching is very easy to follow and makes me feel that even I can paint! Thank you so very much

@baddieaf2922 5 лет назад

What color u mix for skin tone ? I have a difficult with color skin sometimes it's work and sometimes not

@Chloe-nr2uw 4 года назад

It's just red+yellow=orange+white=flesh(for me I use flesh as a skin tone and u can add a little bit of blue for more depth) or if you want it reddish or something then just put a bit more red or if you want it to be more darker (darker shade for flesh) then use brown/blue :) If you don't know how to mix brown it's basically just all the primary colors but if you're failling to do it then here's a tip: What I usually do: red+yellow=orange+blue=brown Blue+yellow=green+red=brown What I sometimes fail to: (I think it's because I sometimes add too much blue or idrk) blue+red=purple/violet+yellow=brown

@amralicina8872 4 года назад

also add a tiny bit of blue so the skin has more depth

@yolo-rr9nl 4 года назад

If you wanna paint the skin like him then red+white

@Trebinhas 4 года назад

I use pink and yellow veery diluted for white skintones! But it totaly varies in the environment and the tone of the drawing. For example, sometimes I add a bit of purple/dark blue to make it more gray-ish and on the cool side, or more orange and brown for a tan. It's a matter of trying. Mix, add color, add different amounts of whater and just try it. And also, take notes from the proportions and what color you used, if you get it wright you might want to replicate it later.

@Nova-ve9qf 3 года назад

Never use white to make the colors brighter! Use water

Do you think you will ever make smaller prints of your watercolor artworks that might be cheaper than the ones you have now? I've always wanted to purchase one of your watercolor prints, but they are too big for my limited wall space and being still in highschool, I have to ask my parents for money, and they aren't inclined to pay over 20 dollars for a piece of artwork (They are tech people). Love your artwork and thank you for seeing this comment if you have the time!

@kelogsloops 6 лет назад

YES! I want to put out smaller works and I do apologize that right now the store only has larger & pricier works 😞 They were exhibition artworks so it didn't feel right to be shrinking them from their original sizes.

@bonbonlou7810 5 лет назад

It draws beautifully and quickly! When I edited the video with TimeLabs, I realized that I had too many strokes. But you do not touch the same place many times. It's amazing! It was nice to be able to see the diversity of pictures every time I changed the camera angle. It was a lot of learning to me. I do not paint with watercolors but draw with colored pencils. Your illustrations seem to have inspired me a lot. I look forward to a good video in the future. Sending a big kiss. Have a good day!

@nathanaels.94 6 лет назад

So, why do you start your skin tones around the eyes? Is just personal preference or something you were taught? Or is something other reason? I haven't done anything skin related before, if that helps at all.

@kelogsloops 6 лет назад

I think it's just a personal preference. For me, at least, starting out with the eyes gives me a reference to gauge upon how detailed and how much I need to build upon to balance the face. Probably because the eyes are the natural center of focus

@kelogsloops 6 лет назад

right now, my favourite brushes are the Kolinsky brushes from Trekell (the black ones you see in this video). they hold a great amount of water and pigment, so its easier for washes and big applications of paint. if you want to start out with watercolour, i highly recommend going for synthetic taklon brushes instead as they are a lot more affordable! I hope that helps!

@flyingcookies1249 6 лет назад

@Jade Grant, it doesn’t matter at what age you start, it’s about how long you’ve drawn. Such as drawing daily for a year rather than painting every few times for years

@kamikaze8645 6 лет назад

oh my goddard.. Using a crown pen for white highlights. brilliant. I am personally kind of stuck, since i'm an autodidact on what to do in certain situations. The white highlights were one of them until today. i tried white pencils, but you have to push those really hard in order to give off a clear white line, but that often results in breaking off the wips, and having to sharpen them again, and again and again. The softer pencils are hard to do a hard or sharp line with and end up looking blurry. This crown pen is golden. thanks for showing that !! (and the rest as well)

@TheWishDragon 5 лет назад

Could be a bunch of things. - do you let things dry completely before working on the next layer? - is your paint prone to lifting? - do you scrub or work heavily on the page? - do you put paint down too thickly? I hope you can figure it out.

@blank7644 4 года назад

you should wait for your first layer to dry and then put your next layer on top. If thats not the problem, it may be the materials you use, e.g. paper, brush, paint

Thank you sooooooo much for the sea surf tutorial! I guess I could've written on that vid but I saw this vid and this too looked like something I wanted to weigh in on. Love your work and the way you do what you do! I'm a 58 yr. old Mum and have drawn and painted my whole life but now, since I'm still loving art so much, its been made obvious to me that I should really develop my skills to a professional level. so your work matters to me. And i love your style and how gorgeous all of it is...loved the little boats in the waves birds eye view. Loved it. I used to be this prolific...then, somene said i should get a job and move out! So from that moment on, I had to hit the ground running and the work I had to get never left any time to do what I loved. I know alot of people feel this way. so...now that I've got one out of the hosue, (which by the way, I never wanted, he did!), I can take the time needed to practice and practice doing things in watercolor that I'd not thought of doing before. So thanks very much for your tutorials!

@ptoooooey 6 лет назад

Whenever I add another layer after one dries, the paint always lifts up in at least one area and leaves a big splotch of white where the paper under is showing. I tried lifting excess watter thinking that it is caused by excess pooling but it seems like no matter what I do, the layer under messes up the one I'm working on, what do I do? I'm still just starting and I love the medium. I'm still not sure what I should do when this happens or how to avoid it. I often end up overworking the paper trying to solve it

H- Hewwo uwu This could be a case of your materials limiting your progress, when you use high quality watercolours and paper the underneith layers cannot be rubbed off to that degree.

Caitlin Brown I see, I'll have to exparament with them when I can. They were given to me from a friend because she got frustrated with them so I'll look into it. Thank you.

Great tutorial, I have a few questions 1) what are using for the white ink? 2) what are your basic skin colors? I look forward to seeing more tutorials and learning 😊

@ptoooooey 6 лет назад

papercuts I'll have to check when I get home. I'm pretty sure they are pretty cheap because I wanted something to see if I'd like the medium better than acrylics. Thank you for the recommendations!

I absolutely love how you do your faces. I started watercoloring late in life and I love it. I right now can only hope to be able to paint faces as you do. Thank you for this tutorial. I just found you recently and I just love your watercolors. Much appreciated. Thanks. Oh and yes I would love more videos like these!

Nice to have a reminder that the initial sketch of features dont have to be that defined at all since the values come in with the watercolor or other medium. Thanks for helping a beginner!

i relate to the art friends part. my friends growing up dont understand the joy of painting/drawing & they dismiss it as childish. im happy to be able to go to uni and have friends to paint with and talk about art with

My love was always CG and I've just started exploring watercolour (which I've always hated and never been good at). Love watching and listening to your commentary. Beautiful work.

I bought a bunch of watercolours about a year ago, watched countless tutorials & tried to paint, but everything came out looking horrible! Like a preschooler did it lmao. I'm good at lineart but I never practiced painting growing up so it's frustrating to be so BAD at something art related :( I gave up after a few days of trying (and I'm in med school so I don't really have time to practice outside holidays) but I picked them up again this week and I'm glad I found your video, your paintings are so beautiful they inspired me to keep at it until I improve :) Thank you~
