Hello, and welcome to my class Let’s Paint Breakfast! If you love to take photos and have been searching for ways to transform your photos into works of fine art, you’re in the right place. I’m starting a daily painting process for myself, and thought it would be fun to paint some food photos, so breakfast it is!
In this class, you will watch me paint two snapshot photos I took with my iPad. The first painting is of the simple egg. The second painting features the entire breakfast meal of the egg on pancakes. And I do it all with only ONE BRUSH, which is provided to you in the class resources!
In this class you will learn how I:
• Set up the canvas
• Position the photo on the canvas
• Paint the background in a way I desire, rather than what the photo depicts {bye bye paper towel roll!}
• Paint and blend with the provided brush
• Enhance the paintings with additional color, highlights, and brush strokes
• Finish out both paintings with a simple tool in the app iColorama
To do paintings like this, you’ll need:
- An iPad
- An Apple Pencil
- Procreate 5 installed on your iPad
- A basic understanding of how to use the features of Procreate, including installing brushes
- The one simple brush I’ve provided you with in the resources
- An understanding of how to take photos using your iPad, or transfer the photos you wish to paint onto your iPad, whether that be the photos I’ve provided you with or ones of your own
- If you wish to do the final step to finish out the painting, you will also need iColorama installed on your iPad
