![]() ![]() This is a line that is slightly inner curved.ĭraw the bottom side line so that it is parallel to the top side line (both go slightly in a diagonal direction). Then draw a line that is slightly slanted upwards for the side of the tent.ĭraw your far right edge of the tent. ![]() Draw a triangular shape for the front of the tent. Then use your white chalk pencil to lightly sketch the tent. Then make a second mark about 3″ from that bottom line. This will be the bottom line of the tent (the tent’s width). Draw a horizontal line that is about 6.5″ wide and centered. This is about 1.25″ from the bottom of the canvas (if you are using an 11 x 14 canvas). Start by marking where the bottom of the tent will be. Additionally, the tent is 1.25″ from the bottom of the canvas. The measurements for the tent are approximately: 6.5″ wide by 3″ high. Draw Tentĭraw the tent using a chalk pencil. Wait for this to dry before going onto the next step. Paint brown on the lower part of the ground all the way up to the “horizon line” under the trees. Next, load burnt umber onto your palette. Tip: if your 3/4″ flat wash brush is painting too thick of strokes, you can try doing this with a smaller flat brush (such as the 12 bright) or even a round brush. Paint the strokes fast and vary the strokes (some small, some large).ĭo this all the way across the “horizon line”. It is helpful to only load a small amount of paint on the brush. These brush strokes are supposed to represent trees that are way in the distance. Next, use the tip of your flat brush to paint small vertical tree marks along the horizon line. On the left and right, the ground goes up about 3″ from the bottom of the canvas. Paint a ground line that goes in an inverted curve in the middle. Use a 3/4″ flat wash brush and mars black to paint the ground. Concentrate in the center of the canvas to create very bright and dense stars for the “Milky Way”. Load the toothbrush in a small amount of water. Use a toothbrush to splatter white speckled dots all over the canvas. You can also add more darker colors to your sponge and add more dark colored texture to the outer parts of the sky. Create more layers of white, concentrating on the center part of the canvas where it should be bright and light blue. Dab the white up into the Milky Way area and blend it with the blues. Press and turn and/or dab your sponge all over the canvas but concentrate on the areas where the colors transition and need to blend. ![]() Next, use the sponge to blend your sky better. You will want the center part of the canvas (Milky Way) to be brightest/lightest.įill the entire center with this light blue color (the white that mixed with the phthalo blue). Paint small circular strokes with this white and gently blend the white with the blue. Next, wipe your brush but don’t rinse it. Note: phthalo blue is very similar to Prussian Blue and is only slightly lighter. Blend the phthalo blue in with the Prussian and go further in with this dark blue color. Next add phthalo blue to your brush without rinsing the Prussian Blue off. Leave a large white area blank in the middle of the canvas from top to bottom. Apply it just on the outer right and left edges of the painting and go up to the top edge of the canvas. Apply this dark blue using the round mop brush in small circular strokes. Load your round mop brush into the water and squeeze the bristles so most of the water drips out and the brush remains damp. ![]() Load your palette with Prussian Blue, Phthalo Blue and Titanium White. ![]()
