IMG_20241028_135442.jpgHello art enthusiasts! How's everyone doing? I hope you're all well. Let me share the latest coffee artwork I have created today. I named it "The Serene Lake Painting" Please take a look and share your thoughts!

This painting's composition is simple yet attractive. It captures the essence of tranquility and serenity. Its reflection reaches out across the lake's surface, creating a reflection image or a glassy lake that adds beauty to the scene.

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

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.
