Hello everyone, today I'm going to share with you how to draw a peony
First, we add a little bit of white to the red to make it light pink
The whole pen is full of light pink
Don't put too much water
And then go to the tip of the pen and rub a little bit of red
Let the pen form the effect of color gradient
And then the tip of the pen can even be rubbed with a little bit of rouge
Next, we use a pen to press out the petals of the peony
Press from bottom to top
And then turn it around
Turn the belly of the pen
Press down from the right
And now turn, turn, turn, turn the belly of the pen
So that one of its petals is drawn by us
Then we add a little bit of red
Add a little more rouge
Be sure to keep this pen
Keep the tip of the pen thick at all times
And then the belly of the pen
And then we turn it around
Turn it around here
Press the pen and turn it around
And then adjust the color according to the previous step
The tip of the pen is rubbed with a little bit of rouge
And then draw some petals on the side
Also by pressing the pen like this
Bring it to the side
Press the pen to the side
Spread out
Turn the pen
Don't have too much water
If there is too much water
It's easy to spread out
Press down on this side
Each pen is pressed out by such a pen
There are all such subtle changes
Then we slowly draw up
Press the pen
Then turn the belly of the pen
Bring it up
You can add a pen on this side
The more you go back
The more you go up
Its color can be a little bit heavier
The belly of the pen was more white just now
And now
The white of our belly can be a little bit less
The color is a little bit darker
But there has always been such a subtle change on the pen
And then the petals at the back are a little bit smaller
Why?
Because some of it is blocked by the petals in front
So the more we draw
The smaller the petals
The smaller the part where the petals show
But its width can still be drawn the same width
And then when we draw
We don't want to draw a symmetrical shape
Don't be symmetrical
When you draw a peony
You have to have this asymmetry
To look good
We can add some of the gaps
Okay, so what's next
We can use a little bit of color
To press the shape of the peony
The shape of the peony petal
The shape of each petal of the peony petal
It's all pressed out by the back petals
Sometimes we have this gap on the petals
Then we go through the back petals
You can press out the gap in front of it
We just need to adjust a little bit of color on the tip of the pen
To press the shape in front
A wider petal
We can press it like this
Press two strokes
What about a narrower one
Like this
We can just press one stroke
Or you don't have to
When you press it
You can wait until the color is dry
In this case
It won't blend
You can wait
Now just make up
See which places you can press a little bit
Okay, so what's next
We add a little bit of rouge
The color is darker
The middle part of the peony petal
Draw a little bit heavier
Why is this piece so heavy
Because I'm going to paint the peony petal later
The color of the peony petal is lighter
If the color is not heavy
He can't stick out
Can't stick out his peony petal
The middle piece
We also have to press it out
To shape the leaves
You see this kind of shape
Just press it
Next we can use green directly
That is, green
Use green to point at the heart of the flower
Then draw the tail of the flower
Change to a small pen
You can use the dream box
Then at the bottom left of our video
We have the same painting material
You can go in and buy it
In this center
Press a little bit
Then we do the same
Then we still use this dream box
Use this small pen
Use white to add a little bit of peony to draw his tail
Why don't we just draw it with peony
Because peony has a very weak coverage
White coverage is very strong
So we use peony to add a little bit of white
Let the peony have a stronger coverage
Otherwise, if you use peony directly
It will be very transparent
The color below is transparent
Now let's see how to draw the tail of the flower
If you draw the tail of the flower
One head is big and one head is small
Take a look
When you start to point
A little bigger
Pull it down a little bit
Let's draw another one that's a little longer
Or a little bit smaller
Click again
Click
Then draw some peony behind
When drawing peony
There must also be a certain density relationship
And there must also be a spatial relationship
There is this kind of space
There are also some in and out
There is no such line
It's just a drawing
So we put these density relationships
The spatial relationship is expressed
Finally, we can adjust it a little bit according to the shape
Adjust it a little bit
See where this shape needs to be added
Where there is a need to be added
We can add a little bit
It also makes the whole shape more full
If you like Chinese painting
You can like to collect
If you have time, you can draw with me
