 Hey guys, we are here with another video for artsy trio and It is late Sunday afternoon, and I got an idea for what I'm gonna do with this month's mood board So we're gonna just go ahead and film that which is funny because I created the mood board and then I looked at it I went hmm But I think I know what I want to do. So the first thing we're gonna do is we're gonna Well, I already did the first thing I printed out the mood board and of course I pasted it over here in our journal that we've been using for these and that I've been doing my art experiments and I leave notes and Put paint swatches what colors and everything So I've already got that glued in I'm gonna take some painter's tape and after I put it on my clothes once We are gonna tape off a Rectangle so hopefully We get a nice clean border. I have mixed luck with this So we will see What happens I Put it on my clothes Before sticking it down Because even though it's painter's tape sometimes I find that it tries to pull the paper Okay, we're gonna use because of the mood board. We're gonna use varying shades of blue I have a little bit of yellow and some white and some scrap paper so First thing we're gonna do is do a background. So I'm going to take some Of this these are all gouache acrylics. So or matte acrylics. So they all have a very matte finish so I'm gonna take a little bit of that one and Some white as chips of paint fall off there We go. I think I'm gonna use this blue which is just called blue medium deep Navy You know, let's do a little bit of Navy Let's do a little bit of this one which has a little bit of a green hue. That's green blue Not gonna I don't think I'm gonna do the turquoise. We have some yellow a little bit of gray I'm not sure I'm gonna want this tan color or not We'll leave it out. I'm not sure I'm gonna want it or not. Let's see. We're gonna put For when we make notes we put all the colors that I'm using to the left and these two to the right There we go. That'll work Okay, I'm gonna need a little circle something that's in the shape of a circle Not a very big circle. So I guess I better get a hole punch out. Hang on Okay, I need a little circle for what we're gonna do and I took a glassy bag Which is just sitting I have a million of them and this is just a junk one And I put two pieces of the blue painters tape on it. I need one more piece of tape Or I need to cut that so I can get the punch closer to the tape. Okay So then let's see if it works. Yep. So then I'm gonna punch a circle maybe Or at least make a mark. Oh, it did sort of punch Okay, it doesn't have to be a perfect circle, but I just kind of want it as close as possible Okay So the very first thing we're gonna do is I'm going to take a Couple of different brushes. I don't know exactly which brushes I'm gonna end up using but we'll find out as we go And I'm gonna take the yellow and just paint a circle and make sure it's a bigger Than your tape Then We'll dry that. Okay Now we're gonna stick our Masking tape circle on there should peel off the glassing bag fairly easily Because of the bags waxy surface There we go I'm going to put it over the yellow tape and paint to me. Okay There we have it now We're gonna take some of these other colors and I'm gonna start lighter and work my way darker I'm gonna take a little bit of the white mixed with the green blue Oops and try not to go over on to the part that I bothered masking off, which I've already screwed up So, you know, it came off. Okay, let's be a little bit more careful Okay, I'm going to add some of the darker light blue Gonna dry that I'm gonna take some of the white some of the two blues Can you tell where I'm going with this? Are you still guessing? Okay, we'll dry it again Tear it place it Here I'm going to take the same brush we've been using and some of the light blue and a little bit of the next darker blue Dry that kind of decide if I want to tear a new piece Let's turn it. We will take that That blue and a little bit of the darkest blue that we picked do the same thing dry One of these No idea if this is gonna work. Let's hope we don't mess it up now Take the darkest blue and the gray and the dried up so I don't mess it up. Take this piece And line it up like that I'm not sure. I like that. I need another piece of scrap paper Okay, we'll work it out. I'm just ripping up various kinds of garbage paper Gonna just go in and darken this up a little bit. Okay, and by the same token I'm going to Lighten this up a bit. That's too much gray Of course it is This brush just has water on it by the way. No paint And then I want to grab a little bit of yellow, but I don't think there's Much left on the palette. No, let's try to get a little bit Don't need much add some depth by just adjusting the colors a little bit. Okay, I Think it might be time to take the paint off. You ready to see what this looks like To put the cap on the paint So we don't make a bigger mess Let's dry it first Okay, let's take the tape off No, one thing about having to dry it is the tape helps loosen up the I mean the heat gun it helps loosen up tape Not too bad. We've got a little bit under the tape, but it's not too horrible Okay, remember the circle so I do want to adjust that just a little bit Take some of these lighter blue colors that we used. That's cute. I like that. Okay I'm we're gonna do some journaling around the edge. Let me grab a pen Let's use this one Start over here Actually, I should start by drying that before I stick my hand in something. I love that You could very easily do this technique with paper Rather than doing the paint you could tear strips of paper and do the same thing with paper and then journal around it What it means to you I didn't think about that I didn't pre-plan it what I wrote around the edges is just what literally came out the second and yes I almost spelled there wrong Because yeah, anyway, and I may still have spelled it wrong, but it's gonna be what it is now All right, so now we're gonna take notes over here on what we did and why we did it So let me do that and I'll be right back Okay, that's it more of it in camera. There we go. I love the way that turned out. That was so good That's actually something I would do on a bigger scale on a bigger painting too. How fun would that be? It would look great hanging over a bed in a in a guest room or a fireplace Yeah, I could see doing a big one of those anyway, which is the whole point of this book is to experiment with ideas techniques composition Color palettes, I would probably not think of just using blues with a splash of yellow in a color palette without This whole artsy trio thing, which is the point of it and so we are hoping you're inspired and it's Encouraging you to be creative.
