Drawing a Funny and Colourful Card


1 Choose a good outline colour. In the first part of the card we will be drawing a snail.



2 Choose the Paintbrush tool.

3 Begin from the centre and draw a piece you see below.


4 Draw the head and neck.



5 Draw its antennae and eye.


6 Vary the colours and make the mouth.


7 Decrease the size of the stroke and change to a dark colour.

8 Add some curlicues.


9 Draw freehand again and add two flowers. Then change to black and add the centres.


10 Change to a light colour. Simply scribble in the grass.


11 Add some stars using a light blue.

 

12 Add few more curlicues.





13 Make some freehand lettering. As you can see, this is a whimsical card.

 

 



14 Flip the colour swatches since you are working with a fill colour. Change to red and draw some little hearts. Save and export the file as a .psd. Open Painter.



15 Open the file in Painter. Choose Coloured Pencils and Variable Coloured Pencil. Reduce the Opacity to 32%. The size of the pencil is 3.0. Choose a colour and pencil in the areas shown in the snail below.



16 Increase Opacity to 50% and change to yellow. Pencil in the areas as shown below.



17 Change the brush size to 14 and Opacity to 100%. Change the colour to black. Create a fun little border and add some polka dots.
