This is one of my favorites. I did this in poster colors. For this painting, you’ll need only four colors that are: White, Black, blue and Prussian blue (dark blue). So for drawing the picture, you first start with the eye. You place the eye a little bit above the middle line if it is A3 size paper or canvas. If it is a square paper or canvas you place the eye at the middle of the page. Then after drawing the eye, start with the stripes. Make sure the stripes near the face are connected to each other. The other stripes can be parallel to each other. [For more information see there picture that I have painted 👆] After finishing the drawing, you have to start painting the lightest color of the painting which is white. Then you have completed the picture already by finishing the drawing and the white part. Now it is time to do the second part which are the black parts. Paint the other stripes in black. After that you have to take a very thin brush and do very small hair or fur at the sides of all the stripes. This takes a long time but it was all worth it at the end. I felt very proud seeing the final picture. And I felt very happy that my friends and family appreciated my painting a lot. 😁😁

This is a very colorful painting and is one of my favorites. I did this in poster colors. This is a very simple painting. After drawing the picture, I start with the background. I used a very light green for this. You can also use other light colors like Baby blue, baby pink etc. After painting the background. I started the colors inside the wings which is the rainbow colors. After finishing those colors. Take a darker shade of those colors that are;

For :-

Red: Red + Black = Maroon

Orange: Orange + Red = Saffron

Yellow: Yellow + Orange = Dark yellow

Green: Green + Dark green = Leaf green

Blue: Use dark blue or Prussian blue

Purple: Purple + Black = Dark Violet

With those colors, outline their respective base color. Ex. For Red you have to outline with Maroon. Do the same with other colors too. Then I did the body of the butterfly in gray color. Finally, I did the black part. And thats it! I like this painting because it is simple, beautiful and colorful and the rainbow colors go very well with the black.

This is one of my favorite paintings. I did this in poster colors. After sketching the drawing, I started with the upper part of the Macaw. Like that I finished the whole body with three colors Red, Blue And Yellow. But I have to show the wings of the Macaw separately. So, for the upper part which is red, I mixed red and a little bit of black that makes Maroon. Then I painted it over the red paint. I used a darker shade of Red to differentiate it from the normal poster Red. Like that I did for Yellow and Blue. For Yellow I used Light Green And for blue I used Ultramarine Blue( Dark Blue or Indigo). Then I did the background In Yellow. Then I did the beak and the branch in Grey color, in the face of the bird if you look closely you will see small stripes of Light Pink. Then at the last you put black for the eyes.

This is a colorful peacock. I used poster colors to do this painting. After drawing the peacock, I did the background fully as light green. Then I did some strokes in dark green. Then I started with the feathers of the bird. I used orange, light blue, Dark blue, and light green. Then I did some strokes with blue just like I did with dark green. Now I painted the peacock in blue. Then after the paint had dried I used a sponge and dipped it in dark green paint and made some sponge marks on the peacock’s body. And then I did the beak with dark gray and outlined it with black. Then finally I did the eyes of the peacock with a thin brush and that made the peacock even more beautiful.

This is rose flower. This is one of my favorites. I did this in Poster colors. You can try it in Acrylics too. I have used different shades of Pink by mixing Red and White. To make a darker shade of pink I add little bit of more red than white and to make a lighter shade I add more white than red. And to fill in the darkest of areas I mixed very little amount black with red to make Maroon. To make the leaves I used three shades of green than is light green, Leaf green( Light green mixed with dark green) then dark green at the bottom of the leaf. Then for the final touch I added black to make the flower look bright in dark background. And it goes very nicely with red.

This is a toucan. I have used different shades of green like Sap green, Dark green and Light green. The green color makes the painting a little bit dull. So I have added bright colors like Pink, White mixed with light green and yellow. The Black gives the Final touch to the painting. And you must always paint Black at the end as it will smudge with the other colors.
