VIDEO DESCRIPTION This painting tutorial will take you through easy to follow, step-by-step instructions on how to paint this fun and exciting autumn landscape portrait image of "PLAYFUL PUMPKIN FAIRIES" with an energetic whimsical feel and realistic look to it. You can personalize the number of fairies or the type of harvest items to symbolize your family or geographical region that you live in. Imagine the landscape sky to be a beautiful fall morning sunrise or a stunning evening sunset with the hint drifting clouds floating by hovering over a field of vibrant orange squash that are ready to be the playground for these frolicking mystical little ladies. Imagine the little fairy dancers moving to the sounds of nature, with the bugs and birds chirping to the rhythm of the crisp autumn air. They may be dancing in the early morning as the warmth of the sun kisses the edges of the meadow, or in the late afternoon as the sun sinks below the horizon. You’ll learn how to paint this lovely country landscape and these delicate mythical magical creatures with movement and personality by using simple painting techniques for blending and adding highlights and shadows for dimension. Let the silhouettes be crisp and the sunbeams soft using carefree paint strokes. You’ll learn how to layer the grass and pumpkins to create a 3D effect like a photograph. The girls will come to life with long flowing dresses, shapely figures and beautiful wings as they flit and frolic on the stems and through the air above the pumpkin patch. With the lush fertile grass transitioning from dark to light, you’ll create a realistic glow leading the viewers eyes to travel through the hillside. The complimentary colors will bring cohesion and harmony, creating a symphony of edible vegetables trailing off into the distance. You’ll learn to paint these realistic looking seasonal pumpkins that pop, land and sky that have atmospheric dimension and female figures with proper proportions. Inspiration for this image comes from the symbolism of pumpkins and fairies. Pumpkins are often referred to as symbols of prosperity, growth and abundance. The fairies are often associated with plants, depicted as pure figures who possess magical powers. So why not put these two beautiful symbols together and make a stunning piece of artwork! You'll learn to paint this realistic harvest landscape with depth, contrast and natural colors, creating an image that is beautiful with a little whimsical vibe to it. Using only 3 brushes and 7 colors we'll create this conversational masterpiece that is sure to compliment any décor. So let's get painting and let's get sipping!
