What should I do if I don t have a good grasp of the transparency of transparent objects in gouache

I have been engaged in painting education for many years, and when you paint, you can't forget that the glass itself is also reflective, and you can't forget the influence of the surrounding environment on the glass, commonly known as environmental color. There is also the color of the light source, the influence of natural light. Finally, there is the outline of the transparent object, which you pay attention to, and it will be easy to produce an effect.

In gouache painting, transparency is mainly a combination of control of water and expressive techniques.

The use of water is not as important in gouache as it is in watercolor, but it cannot be ignored. Water mainly plays the role of dilution and medium.

Toning, brushing, and thinning of color layers are all closely related to the use of water. Generally speaking, proper use of water can make the picture smooth, moisturized, and rich. Too much water will reduce the color intensity, causing water stains, stains and water color build-up.

Insufficient water will dry out the color and make it difficult to use a pen. It is usually advisable to use water to be able to use the pen smoothly and cover the base color. In painting dark places, imaginary places and distant places, it is generally appropriate to use more water to enhance the sense of remoteness and transparency.

In terms of the drawing steps. When spreading the tone, you should use more water to make the color layer thinner and easier to color again. In the process of painting, the water is too dirty to change in time.

In particular, the parts with bright colors should be used cleanly.

The use of wet and dry techniques is indispensable for expressing transparency.

Dry painting method: that is, the meaning of less water and more powder, this painting method mostly uses squeezing out the water contained in the brush tip, adding no water or less water when toning, so that the pigment becomes a paste, first deep and then shallow, from the large surface to the details, covering and deepening over and over again, the more you paint, the more fully you paint, and with the progress from deep to shallow, constantly add more white powder to brighten the picture. The dry painting method is more astringent and dry, but it is more specific and strong, which is convenient for expressing definite and clear shapes and colors, such as the concave and convex parts of the object, the bright part of the main object in the painting and the wonderful details depicted. This method of painting attaches great importance to the brush, and strives to observe accurately, and the next stroke is certain, and each stroke represents a certain relationship between shape and color.

The dry painting method also has its disadvantages, too many uses of this method in the picture, coupled with improper use of skills, will cause the picture to be dry and dull. However, the color of the dry painting method changes little after drying, and it is easy to master the effect of practicing color.

Wet painting method: This method is the opposite of dry painting, using more water and less powder. It absorbs the techniques of watercolor painting and Chinese painting splashing ink, and can also give full play to the benefits of gouache painting using "water", which is rendered by diluting the pigment with water. Wet painting can also use the transparency of paper and color to achieve brightness and freshness like watercolor.

However, the wet technique used is more demanding than that of watercolor, because the gouache pigment particles are coarse, it requires that the picture must be seen accurately when wetting, and the wet painting part is successfully rendered at one time, and too much smearing or multiple smearing will inevitably cause the picture to be gray and greasy. However, this method of drawing is smooth and soft, and is particularly suitable for painting loosely structured objects, faint backgrounds, and vague dark sides of objects. When played properly, it can express a vivid charm of unity and joy.

Its colors are interpenetrated by the flow of water, sometimes with unexpected effects. In order to create this wet effect, not only should the pigment be diluted with water, but the paper should also be wet with water according to the needs of the part and the whole, so as to ensure that the wet time and color are natural.

It is painted like watercolor, because some of the paints in gouache paint contain more glue, which is suitable for wet painting.

To draw a transparent object, you must first draw the object or background behind the object, and then draw the lower edge on that basis, add highlights, light source color, and environment color, the light source color depends on what kind of light you use, and the transparent object itself is transparent, and the inherent color is mainly gray tones.

Isn't there the color of the original background on your palette? You add a little water, a little gray, white. Use the wet painting method to first propose the outline of the transparent object (yes to mention) and then slowly adjust it, you must look at it as a whole, if you just look at the transparent object, you will be done!

Draw transparent objects to; 1 .Draw an object or background behind the object. 2.It depends on what kind of light you use [overall].

Watercolor itself is a transparent pigment, so it is easy to make a transparent effect.

Because of the transparent nature of watercolor paints, you need to apply light colors and then heavy colors, which makes it easier to maintain the breathability of the picture.

The gouache paint itself is an opaque pigment, and there are two ways to use it to make a transparent effect, one is to add more water and paint with watercolor, and the other is to use the contrast relationship to create a sense of transparency. You can accentuate the heavy colors or dark areas, use a little highlight in the light or light areas, and create a sense of transparency by being absolutely ratio. However, in order to maintain the transparency of the picture, it is recommended not to use more white and black in the gouache paint, because these two colors of powder are the most, and white can be used, but try not to mix a large area in the color mixing, otherwise it will cause a powdery and breathless feeling.

If you want to use heavy colors, you can choose to use a blend of more transparent ultramarine and rose red to create a heavy color effect.

The transparent effect can be reflected in both color and brush, such as using wet painting in watercolor, or using loose brushstrokes, which can produce a transparent and breathable feeling.

If you want the cup and bottle to have a transparent feeling, first draw the background, and then draw the cup, and the effect will come out in one go.

Gouache toning,If you use a lot of water, let the color flow on the paper, which can also create the effect of blending water and color. The first coloring of a general gouache painting.

Most of them use thin drawing methods with a lot of water. Due to the thin color of the water, the powder factor and hiding power will be weakened, and the artistic characteristics of gouache painting can not be fully utilized.

Hello! I'll help you out now. If you want to use yellow, you take out a palette, squeeze a little bit of yellow into the palette, glue the brush with more water, and stir it on the yellow side of the palette, so that the color is transparent.

Amount (o)....Maybe my words don't make sense, but I just need you to understand what I mean. If you have any questions, come back to me and I'll continue to help you answer them!

The color of the dark part should be thin, there is more water, and the bright part should be slightly thicker, and pay attention to the reflection. Ambient color.

Apple red cloth blue First of all, there is a warm purple tone in the dark side.

Given that it can't be pure red on the apple.

There will be orange or even orange color, which contrasts with the blue cloth environment, and there are brown and ochre, and there is also a dark brown color.

And then the blue cloth is a matte color, and the reflection is very low, but it is always affected by the red apple, so the cool purple tone is also there.

There is no absolute warmth or coldness in any still life that is illuminated by the reflective sunlight of the ambient color.

There are only a large number of tendencies in color, the so-called gray tones.

Of course, using some solid colors on the bright and dark sides can still help to bring the picture to life without losing the richness of the gray tones.

You can artificially exaggerate or add some shades that are not visible but fit the environment.

In this way, your picture will be richer than others, and it will be easier to stand out from the large number of exam papers.

The main thing is that practice makes perfect, and genius is also practiced.

You can use complementary colors to make a reasonable blend of colors... I feel that the red apples are yellowish-green... The blue cloth is purple...

I just want to say don't be fixed by the color of the thing itself, and blindly tune that color ... Rather, it is based on the original color to change the color to color to understand... This is what true color is all about ...

Personal opinion... If you think it's right, agree with it. Hehe.
