Learn How to Draw and Paint with Acrylics "MISTLETOE KISS" - Beginner Tutorial - Paint & Sip at Home

Описание: PAINTING VIDEO DESCRIPTION – Looking for an easy Christmas painting idea? Want to do a fun Holiday DIY project? Let me be your acrylic art instructor as I teach you easy step-by-step instructions throughout this fun beginner art video as you learn how to paint a bright, big, lush pair of red lips and mistletoe in this fun and whimsical Christmas painting, “MISTLETOE KISS”. Cultures all over the world celebrate Christmas time with various traditions. From making a giant straw goat in Sweden to placing shoes in the window in Iceland, and from having a large cookout with fried caterpillars in South Africa to celebrating Belfani the witch and Krampus as much as Santa in Italy and Austria, people all over the world partake in their own way to celebrate the festive holiday. But one tradition that sems to transcend all cultures is the kissing under the mistletoe. The tradition of kissing under the mistletoe started in ancient Greece, during the festival of Saturnalia and later in marriage ceremonies as a sign of fertility and good fortune. Over time the tradition evolved and now it’s believed that a person caught under a mistletoe could not refuse a kiss and that it would increase their chances of getting married. So, pucker up butter cup and come join me and paint this iconic symbol of love and hopeful matrimony, and decorate your wall with an image that embodies your personal vows to your spouse, or, alternatively, inspire hope in yourself that you too will find someone to take that leap of faith with someday. With all the Holiday cheer, booze flowing, gift-giving, romantic music, uplifted spirits, and promises of a hopeful new year, there is no better time of the year than Christmas to find yourself a mate, a partner, a companion, or the love of your life. The painting process is so simple to follow. You’ll first learn how to paint a background using just dark black to capture the romantic essence of a heart pounding smooch. Then after learning how to draw an outline for your piehole, you’ll apply a simple basecoat to work off of. Then you’ll learn how to easily paint highlights and shadows on the skin of your chops to give them form, roundness, and depth creating a 3D effect so real you’ll want to grab the canvas and give it a big ole canoodle Frencher. Then, after learning how to paint the base coat for your mistletoe leaves and berries, just like you did for your facial choppers, you’ll then add highlights and shadows to create texture and dimension to the flower. The painting process is so simple you’ll feel like it is a paint by numbers. Using only 3 brushes and 5 colors, you’ll paint like a professional! Have a date night, paint party, paint and sip event, or virtual paint night. Paint with gouache, oil paint, or watercolor, any medium will work! Paint just for fun or for art therapy. It's an easy art project. I hope you enjoy watching this YouTube art video and let's get painting and let's get sipping!
