...your first Traditional Artwork .
-abstract-


DeviantArt is a platform full of artists with a lot of talent and imagination , digital , artisan , phhotography , literature or traditional are great mediums you can find on here. 
But I'm a self taught traditional artist and I want to share with you some tricks about this beautiful medium!
This short journal is intended for these persons who never had the ''courage'' to express themselves by painting just because they don't know how to do it.
But did you know that sometimes the fact of trying to create can have an wonderful and unique result ? #justdoit 

YOU: I CAN'T , I'm not a Traditional Artist! 
Me: Trust me , you can do it ! In a competition it is more important to participate than to win!
Trying is the key !

TUTORIAL: 

''How to create your first Traditional Art piece''
~ABSTRACT PAINTING~

1. Choose your colors (Acrylics)
- My colors for this painting will be: 
GOLD , PURPLE , COPPER 


2. Paper 
- A4 paper (21 cmx 29,7cm)

3. PVC Transparent Film (go to kitchen you will find it)


4. Play your favorite SONG
-For this paint I've chosed Sam Smith:


5. Optional : Glitter 
- I will add some gold and silver glitter.


We can start !


:star:Spread the colors on the paper but try not to abuse because it will take a long time to dry. A very thick layer of paint on the paper will not look very good, it will also force the paper to shrink in the drying process and then you will not be able to give it a flat shape.


:star:When you have the colors on the paper ,cover the paper with the transparent film.


:star:Start pressing the colors with your fingers until a mixture is achieved, when you have the ''final result'' just remove the transparent film and add the glitter above the colors. 
Tip: don't apply too much glitter. :)


:star:Let is dry at least 24h and when the paint is dry put a 'heavy' book on to flatten the paper , will help it to achieve its natural smooth shape .
Sign your artwork :heart:

This is my final result:



That's all folks ! Now you know how to create your own abstract paint !
