"FIREWORKS" | Watercolor Painting Tutorial | @shelouveloso

Life is like a firework, we're created for a purpose, infused with elements not to become explosives but to be a spectacular display. We soar high to the sky, not just to create noise, but to fill our lives with colors as we give lights to others.

Hello Steemians !
Are you ready to learn some techniques in painting? :)
Today, i'm going to show you the processes of this quick and easy painting. All you need are just a piece of white and blank paper, water, paint brush, and watercolor.

Let's start :)

First is to paint a sunset. I know there's a lot of beautiful and colorful sunsets but in this painting I choose to have it in blue sky with yellow orange sunlight.

In painting a sunset, the upper part of it should be in darker color. Use dark blue color mix with a little bit of black. And as you go down to the lower part, mix it with white. The nearer it is from the sunlight, the brighter its color, and the further it is from the sunlight the darker its color. That's the technique there.

For the sunlight, paint it in orange mix with yellow color and for the sea, just paint it with lighter blue.

Make sure to blend the colors well but for those having a trouble in blending the colors, its okay. Just keep on practicing. My tip for you guys is when you blend two or more colors, don't apply to much force on the brush. After painting the first color, apply lighter pressure on the brush when overlaying another color. But be sure to blend it while it's still wet. Just keep on practicing :)

Second is to paint the mountains.
Make an outline and paint it with black as silhouette from sunlight.

Now it's time to paint the fireworks! It depends on what colors you want. :) Just imagine the explosion of the fireworks, it's like spreading all over the sky. It's up to you, any forms will do. It could be in heart shape or star. Any forms you like :)
Then paint a very small city/buildings on the mountains where the fireworks came from. Paint also a reflection of the fireworks on the sea.

And lastly, by doing this technique you will create a tiny dots which serves as the sparks from the fireworks.

Now we're done ! :)
