This was a simple sunset art lesson - a practice for blending colors in paint.
Art block
poster colors
Kids first draw the outline of whatever monument they wanted the sunset silhouette to be.
Only outline is enough, no details since it is all going to be black.
Now we start painting straightaway.
Start painting with the lightest color - yellow from the bottom of the page not much care if it went inside the sketching, till you reach one third of the page width.
Now Start the second color - orange. Start painting while the yellow is till wet, slowly blending the edges of the yellow into the orange. continue orange till three forth of the page and then switch to the last color red. Blend in the same way.
You can also blend the edges of two colors later with just water in the brush
Last step is to color in the foreground silhouette in all black, after the backdrop if totally dry.
See you soon.
