Also, try not to paint over the horse but if you go over the lines a little that is okay! It may be tricky to go from the purple to orange so you may have to add some more deep violet to your brush to get it to blend. Blend in cadmium red light (which looks like an orange). When you blend the blue and purple, go over the color and do “wet on wet blending” allowing the colors to mix together on the canvas. Then blend in deep violet (without rinsing the brush). Paint horizontal strokes that go left and right but not all the way across (stop where the hair is at the top). This ensures the lines will still show through when we paint the horse (making it easy to not loose the basic shapes of the drawing).įor the sunset, I used a 3/4″ wash brush and the colors in this order: ultramarine blue, deep violet, cadmium red light, medium magenta, titanium white. Tip: if you’re working with your child on this painting, it may be helpful to outline with a black paint pen. The horse should be positioned mostly centered but with a good amount of area on the left because of the background. It helps to trace flat on the table versus on an easel. Place a sheet of graphite paper below the horse and trace firmly with a pencil. Trace (Or Draw) The Horse Onto The CanvasĪs stated above, you’ll need to print the traceable on two sheets and tape them together. Follow the same steps except sub the sunset background with a solid color. Simplify this design with a solid black or Payne’s Gray background. I did this painting twice and for some reason the colors came out differently. You can go in different directions on this and make a different color horse, different markings, different background or even add a horn and make it a unicorn. I did create a traceable for this you are welcome to print out and use! If you wanted to draw your own horse on your canvas, I recommend doing a “grid” method of drawing which is a technique of dividing your reference image up in squares and drawing each square one at a time on the canvas. I always have troubles getting the proportion of the eyes, ears, muzzle down without it looking like a Picasso :-p. I find horses are tricky to paint, draw or create with any medium for that matter.
