Thank you so much for this video. You make it so easy. Planning to use the tech for a water lily painting and for more painting. I love the effect it makes everything so alive.

I'm not an artist, but when I look at your water drop it looks real. Another thing, I am trying to learn how to draw faces, since I am not an artist I couldn't understand shading and now I get it. Go figure. thanx

[Ricogak]

[dumbassusa]

[hoosha411]

thats great

[masseh12]

i mean why u gived dark shadow at top of drop any reason ?thanks

[hilarymayes]

Well, I'm no scientist, so I have no idea why, but if you look at a water drop, the shadow strangely appears on the same side as the light is coming from, so that's how I paint them.

[4lEC17]

@hilarymayes maybe the shadow created is then reflected by the water?

[masseh12]

it was amazing but why u didnt dart the top of drop any reason??

[rax7]

it looks a lot more real when the pic is small like your avatar.

[hilarymayes]

not easy! have a look at this video ' Relaxing Rain/Storm Sound 2/2' it isn't a tutorial but I would probably use angled marks like the ones shown , good luck.

althrough water drops arnt perfect circles. Un influenced beads of water do take the shap of a PERFECT water circle. And the curves and edges follow a very specific mathematical map
