in #hive-1743012 months ago

IMG_20240925_131923.jpgHello art enthusiasts! I hope you're all doing well. In today's post, I painted another captivating scenery made of coffee powder as a medium.
"The Captivating Lake Sunset" is an amazing scene where the lake reflects the view, mirroring the sky and the landscape. The surrounding landscape, covered in the soft light of the setting sun, takes on a new depth. The entire scene is proof of the beauty and power of nature, a captivating display that leaves the viewer astonished and filled with a sense of admiration.
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.

Materials Needed:
👉 Watercolor Paper or sketching Paper
👉 Pencil and Eraser
👉 Coffee Powder
👉 2 small cups ( lighter and darker shades)
👉 Ruler
👉 Clean Water
👉 Rag
👉 Paper napkin or paper towel

Brushes:
👉 Flat Brush /small #10, 10/32 / 8.0mm
👉 Liner Brush #2 / 2/32" / 1.6mm
👉 Filbert brush

Note: Keep all the materials ready before you start painting.

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.
