in #hive-1565098 days ago

Hello, art enthusiasts! I hope you’re all doing well. I’m excited to present my latest coffee art, which I just completed today. Take a close look and share your thoughts—I want to hear what you think!
"Pond at Sunset" is a serene painting that captures the beauty of a still pond reflecting the vibrant colors of a sunset. A scene where the water mirrors the setting sun over the pond. The surrounding landscape is enveloped in a warm glow, establishing a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere.
I used three types of painting brushes for this piece and it took me an hour to finish it. For those who are interested in trying this unique medium, you can follow the basic methods below.

👉 Watercolor Paper or sketching Paper

Basic Procedure:
• Outline or sketch your painting reference.
• Paint using a lighter shade of the background by creating a beautiful texture.
• On the middle ground, paint the first layer of the subject.
• The same procedure with the foreground.
• Once the first layer is completely dry, you can proceed to paint with a darker shade of coffee.
• Then add details to come alive of your painting. I used a liner brush for the thin details.

Take note: In putting details, you cannot have sharp lines and shapes unless it is completely dry.
