How to Paint Water Drops

Transparent water drops are very appealing things to paint. With a bit of practice and careful planning you'll find they're not as impossible to paint as you might have thought.
The first thing to get decide is which direction the light is coming from in your painting as this will determine where the highlights and shadows in the drops will be.
Then apply the following 'rules':
  • There'll be a shadow underneath and to the opposite side of the light direction (in this illustration the light is coming from the right, so the shadow is underneath and to the left). Or just underneath if the light source is directly above.
  • There'll be a highlight on the top; not in the center but towards the side the light is coming from (right in this illustration). This is the light source reflected in the water drop.
  • There is a shadow at the top of the water drop (this may not seem logical, but it's caused by the refraction of light through the droplet from the shaded surface below).
  • There is a highlight at the bottom of the water drop (again this may not seem logical, but it's also caused by the refraction of the light through the drop, this time from the light source).

What Color Are Water Drops?

How to paint realistic water drops
Water drops aren't the 'color of water', rather being transparent they're the color of whatever surface they're lying on. So if the leaf it's lying on is green, then the water looks green.
The highlight on the top of the drop will be white. The shadows are darker tones of the green. The refracted light at the bottom of the drop is a lighter tone of green. If the drop were on a red leaf, then the water drop would be in tones of red. The three drops above show this clearly.

How to Draw a Smile


Step 1.

Okay, I've included three types of smiles, a nice big open smile which exposes the teeth, and it's more realistic, and two anime type smiles that are commonly seen on your favorite anime show or manga. For the realistic smile, draw one vertical line, and then a swooping dip. The other two just need a horizontal line that is slightly curled in at the corners, or dimpled.
 
how to draw a smile step 2

Step 2.

You will now draw out the complete mouth set up for the two anime style smiles, including the top row of teeth for the mouth on the left. As for the realistic smile, draw a top lip, and then another line in the middle. Right now it looks like a top and bottom lip, but it is not.
 
how to draw a smile step 3

Step 3.


Draw the hint of a bottom lip for the two anime style mouths, and then draw the bottom row of teeth for the mouth to the left, and the mouth to the right. Next, you will draw another line that cradles the bottom arch you drew in step one, and then add a slight dash in each corner of the smile.
 
how to draw a smile step 4

Step 4.

Now you can start drawing out the arches for the top row of teeth, and then draw the boxy shapes for the bottom row of teeth. The other two mouths are all set.
 
how to draw a smile step 5

Step 5.

Cap off the teeth and then sketch out a bottom lip. When you are done you can start erasing the lines that you drew in step one to clean up that smile.
 
how to draw a smile step 6

Step 6.

And there you have it, a completed lesson on how to draw a smile, and how to draw an anime smile. That was wicked fun wasn't it. Color them in, or use these smiles on your next character drawings.

How to Draw Wolves

Step 1.

This wolf posture is based on wolves that are standing in a normal posture. This would also fit for wolf characters that have a noble, mighty, or leader quality. 1, the neck is upright and sturdy, this is fairly important when drawing a wolf in a normal stance. 2, a wolf's chest and stomach starts large then thins out subtly to the hind leg. 3, the hocks are the same height as half the foreleg. NEVER draw hocks bent in an awkward curve.
 
how to draw wolves step 2

Step 2.

A very important posture of the wolf is “hunched”. This applies to canines that are preying, running, or having a powerful force of pressure blowing at them (storm, wind, snow). The neck curves outward into the base of the head. The fur surrounding the base of it's face is a bit closer to the neck. You should be able to see more definition of the shoulder blade as well.
 
how to draw wolves step 3


Step 3.

Now, I know lots of canine artists have problems with drawing the paws and legs of a wolf overall. People tend to draw the arm connecting to the paw, perfectly straight and inaccurate. To fixate this problem, add a slight bump (in reality called the “Radius”) that evens out when at the base of the paw. 3,Most animals have a “dew paw”, this is the smaller paw finger that lays diagonally from the Radius of the foreleg. 1, you should be able to see the pads underneath the paws a bit. Nails are also subtly visible in this view. 4, when looking at a paw from the front view, you should see most of the nails. All the nails are perfectly leveled and even with each other. To make this perspective more realistic, add a few defining lines to make those paw fingers “pop”.
 
how to draw wolves step 4

Step 4.

Here is some different types of noses that you may want to choose for your wolf drawing. There is front view, 3/4 view, and side view.
 
how to draw wolves step 5

Step 5.

Four different eyes to choose from here. I sort of took my time drawing out these eyes because the eyes of a wolf is one of the more important aspects of these animals. The two top eyes are sketches of a wolf eye from the side, and 3/4 view. The two bottom eyes, are from the side and back view. almost like the wolf is turning around to see behind them. And the last eye is a full frontal view.
 
how to draw wolves step 6

Step 6.

1, a bit of the side of the ear overlaps the inner side of the ear. This is important when viewing a wolf from a slight ¾ view. 2, you should see bits of fur visible when looking at a wolf from this view. It usually protrudes from the ear. 3, the background ear is generally smaller then the foreground ear. This should be drawn thinner without any hint of the inner side. 4, notice how the tissue line separates the inside of the ear, and how there is space between both lines.
 
how to draw wolves step 7

Step 7.

1, drawing the mouth of a wolf can be slightly difficult because of the mistakes on making it look like a deer's snout. The ¾ lower jaw should be pushed back to where it's aligned with the first nostril. Also, shade the mouth a bit darker as well. 2, when your viewing a wolf from the ¾ view, the fur starts expanding from the nose to ear. Most artists find it hard trying to make a wolf look pure wolf due to the furry cheeks these animals have. Make light and swift strokes when drawing these furry sides. 3, the eyebrows should be drawn lightly and not too toned. They curve inwards as well. 4, if you've been drawing dogs a lot, you'll find out that drawing a wolf differs from that. Once you've gotten to the base of the skull, you'll notice that there is more fur on top of it. Add an inch more of fur above their head.
 
how to draw wolves step 8

Step 8.

Let's finally get started shall we? First draw the shapes for the heads, and then add the shapes for the muzzles, or snouts. Add the facial guidelines and the lining for the ears.
 
how to draw wolves step 9

Step 9.

You will now begin sketching out the snouts in detail like you see here, and then add the lining for the eyes. Once that is done, draw in the nose shape.
 
how to draw wolves step 10

Step 10.

Okay, sketch out the shapes of the furry head paying close attention to the cheeks, and neck. Finish drawing in the eyes, and then add some detailing on the brow of the wolf. AS for the wolf above, begin sketching out the ears, cheeks, muzzle, neck, and nose.
 
how to draw wolves step 11

Step 11.

For your last drawing step, all you have to do is finish sketching out the head, and ears like so, and then finish sketching out the necks. Add the detailing for the fur, and then start erasing all the lines and shapes that you drew in step one.
 
how to draw wolves step 12

Step 12.

Here is the wolves when they are all done. From here you can choose to draw out their bodies, or leave them how they are. Color them in and that's it.

How to Draw Violets

learn  drawing  : How to Draw Violets


Step 1.

Before we begin, you should decide if you are going to draw a violet, or a bundle of violets. I say this because you will need to draw the amount of shapes for each flower. As you see I will draw two violets which means you will need to make two circles and two stem lines.
 
how to draw violets step 2

Step 2.

Here you will draw two tear drop shapes in each center of each flower like you see. This should be a very easy task to complete.
 
how to draw violets step 3

Step 3.

Now begin sketching out the semi heart shaped pedals for the violet flower like you see here. Some violets have as many as five pedals, so you can choose how many to draw in.
 
how to draw violets step 4

Step 4.

Draw in the other pedals, and then add the pinched detailing lines in the center of each violet. When that is done you can thicken the lining for the stems, and then draw the beginning of the flowers leafs.
 
how to draw violets step 5

Step 5.

The last thing to do to finish off your violets, is to finish drawing in the serrated edged leaves like you see here. Once that is done you can begin erasing all the guidelines and shapes you drew in step one.
 
how to draw violets step 6

Step 6.

When you are all done, this is how your flowers should come out looking. All you need to do is grab your purple crayon, marker, or paint, and start adding some pretty shades to the violets you just drew. Great work guys!

How to Oil Paint

Have you ever wanted to paint beautiful, expressive paintings with oils? Here are some basics to guide you into the wonderful world of oil paints. Once you've got the basic techniques down pat, the world is your canvas!






Steps:

Choose a place to work where there is good ventilation--a window or door can be opened, or good ventilation can be turned on, and/or you have a fairly open space where air can circulate and move around. If you paint outside, remember that you will need to set up securely so the wind won't blow things over. Note that insects, especially bees, love Citrus Thinner.

 













  1. Adjust your easel so that you can easily touch the painting surface without bending down or standing on tip-toes while holding the brush. Hold your brush at or behind the bulge behind its ferrule (the silver part). You will stand for hours, so make sure you won't strain your back. Standing is better than sitting, but if you must sit, paint at arm's length from the easel.




  2. Put down a drop cloth, plastic bag, or tarp. Secure the edges with masking tape to keep it from bunching up or blowing away. Your work area is going to stand entirely on the drop cloth, so make sure you have covered enough area to have plenty of elbow room. If you plan on working at a table with a table easel, cover the floor below you and the table top.




  3. Put on your painting clothes.




  4. Set up your paints.





    • You need to have one container with just solvent, and the other with medium. A standard painting medium is 1 part oil to 2 parts solvent. The most common oil is linseed and its varieties (refinded, cold pressed, or stand oils) but some painters use safflower, walnut or poppy oils. Alkyd resin and Japan drier can be added to the painting medium to speed drying time. Consider putting the medium in a squirt bottle. You can squirt the contents onto the palette to work into your paint. Put the solvent (mineral spirits, or brush cleaning fluid) in a closeable container.
    • Have enough room for your palette, brushes and palette knife, solvent and solvent/oil containers, rags and paint tubes to be comfortably displayed, readily available for you to use.
    • If you choose to buy a variety of paint colors, try not to get excited about squeezing every single color onto your palette before you begin to paint, as this will waste a lot of paint. Give yourself 2 or three colors to start with and go from there. See the Tips below. (Though sometimes it is good to have the entire range in front of you, be conscious of colors not yet on your palette)









  5. Paint! This part really depends on what you want to produce. However, there are certain things to keep in mind no matter what you're painting. For example, oil paints have a short blending life on the canvas. It is not hard to turn an area into a dull brown mud spot if there are a lot of repetitive layers and alterations made. If you try to alter something and it doesn't work immediately, grab a rag and wipe it off. All the paint from that area will come off. Oils take a while to dry, so you have time to remove paint for almost 24 hours after the application. Just like any other paint, if you make the first coat too thick, it won't dry all the way.




  6. Clean your brushes well between color changes. When you are ready to remove paint from your brush and use a different color, wipe as much paint off with a rag as you can before putting the brush into the thinner. This will make your thinner last longer and will remove more paint from the brush. Swish your brush in the thinner container, then dry it off with a rag.




  7. Give your work of art its space. When the first layer is complete, it will be about 48 hours before it will be dry enough to do the second application without smearing your first day's work. Don't leave your work in an area that is especially hot, or humid, and keep it in an area where it won't get smeared, scraped, touched, brushed up against, smooshed, etc.




  8. If there is a good amount of paint left on your palette that can be used next time, use your palette knife to scrape the "good" paint together, then dampen a clean rag with thinner just slightly and wipe the rest of your palette clean. Use a piece of saran wrap to cover the leftover paint, wrapping it fairly snug.




  9. Wipe dirty brushes off as much as possible with clean rags and then swish in the thinner, until there doesn't appear to be paint coming off of the brush. Do this to all of your used brushes. Under lukewarm running water, hold a bar of mild hand soap in one hand, then run the brush along the soap, as if you were painting on the soap. Go with the direction of the bristles until no paint runs off the brush. Hold the bristles between your index finger and thumb, under the running water, making sure none of the bristles are bent or frayed out. Press firmly with your thumbnail from the base of the bristles to the tip with your index finger firm against the back, opposite your thumb, until no paint comes out of the brush. Rinse soap out thoroughly, and wrap a clean rag or paper towels around the bristles of the clean, rinsed brushes, pressing to absorb excess water. Doing this after painting rather than waiting until the next time you want to paint gives the brushes time to dry completely, because you can't paint with them if they are wet.




  10. Put the lid on the thinner container and leave it until next time, regardless of how cloudy it is. When the thinner settles, the pigment in the paint goes to the bottom, and clean thinner settles on top. The next time you want to paint, you can pour the clean thinner into a clean container, wipe the pigment from the bottom, then pour the thinner back into your thinner container, ready to go. (This process saves a lot of money!)
