The step by step process - la création pas à pas

After a first layer of white gesso, I first color my background ( a 115 lbs thick paper) with my watersoluble wax pastels Neocolor II from Caran d'Ache and Inktense ink sticks from Derwent for the greens

i make blocks of colors as I feel inspired, without thinking much, this has to be a pleasant childish time indeed ...;-)

Après avoir passé une couche de gesso blanc, je colorie mon fond ( feuille de papier épaisse de 250 g/m2) avec mes pastels à la cire aquarellables Neocolor II de chez Caran d'Ache et les bâtonnets d'encre Inktense de chez Derwent pour les teintes vertes

je crée des blocs de couleurs au gré de mon inspiration, sans trop y penser, cela doit surtout être un moment enfantin et joyeux ... ;-)

the colors being water soluble, I now use to dilute a wet brush,

but not too much water because I never want to make a watercolor painting,
on the contrary my goal is to just spread the pigment and especially to keep the colorful brightness

les couleurs étant solubles à l'eau, j'utilise maintenant pour les diluer un pinceau mouillé,

mais pas trop car je ne cherche jamais à faire une aquarelle,
au contraire mon but est de juste étaler le pigment et surtout en garder la luminosité et l'éclat

Now here is the result : luminous and bright, the perfect colorful base for a joyful painting !

Maintenant voici le résultat: lumineux et radieux, la base colorée parfaite pour une joyeuse peinture !

Now I remove color through some stencils with a slightly wet rag as my colors are not yet permanently dried

letting the white of the paper (which is the lower layer) appear everywhere I rub ;-)
I also use a brush very slightly damp to remove paint in some places and create patterns (photo at the right)

Maintenant, j'enlève la couleur à travers des pochoirs avec un chiffon légèrement humide car mes couleurs ne sont pas encore sèches de façon permanente

ce qui laisse le blanc du papier (qui est la couche inférieure) apparaître partout où je frotte ;-)
je me sers également d'un pinceau très légèrement humide pour ôter de la peinture à certains endroits et créer des motifs (photo de droite)

And.... Tadaaaaa !

patterns and lines are adorning now my background =))

des lignes et motifs complètent à présent notre arrière-plan ^_^

I stamp some scriptures and plants (left picture)

with acid-free, water-resistant Versafine ink from Tsukineko
and I glue some pieces of paper (right picture)
the paper is coming from the pages of a damaged book from a play of Molière Le Misanthrope

Je tamponne des écritures et des plantes (photo de gauche)

avec l'encre sans acide et résistante à l'eau Versafine de Tsukineko
et je colle quelques morceaux de papier (photo de droite)
le papier provient de pages d'un livre abimé d'une pièce de Molière Le Misanthrope ;-)

Now it's time to draw my cat character on a sketchbook

and then outline with an ultra fine tip 0.05 Pigma micron black felt from Sakura
I also draw some flowers patterns on its fur,
and then color the cat with various pencils Polychromos from Faber-Castell (you can use whatever colored pencils you want, these ones are very enjoyable to use and very pigmented, but we are not married together...LoL)

Il est maintenant temps de dessiner le personnage de mon chat sur un carnet de croquis

puis je repasse les traits avec une pointe ultra fine 0,05 Pigma micron feutre noir de Sakura
Je dessine aussi des motifs de fleurs sur sa fourrure,
puis colorie le chat avec différents crayons Polychromos de Faber-Castell (vous pouvez utiliser les crayons de couleur que vous voulez, ceux-ci sont très agréables à utiliser et très pigmentés, mais nous ne sommes pas mariés ensemble ... LoL )

My cat finished, I cut it leaving a white margin around

then glued on my background with a simple stick of glue
On the other hand I really made it fit perfectly by using a roller ... it's very useful, but you can improvise one by rolling a bottle ;-)

Mon chat terminé, je l'ai découpé en laissant une marge blanche autour

puis collé sur mon fond avec un simple bâtonnet de colle
Par contre je l'ai vraiment fait adherer parfaitement en me servant d'un rouleau...ça c'est très utile, mais vous pouvez en improviser une en faisant rouler une bouteille ;-)

I finish with drops of turquoise Josonja acrylic paints from Chroma

that I create by shaking a fine brush dipped in a good dilution of my paint above my sheet ....
and then add small details like stars and hearts that I color with white Posca marker

Je termine avec des gouttes de peinture acrylique turquoise Josonja de Chroma

que je crée en secouant un fin pinceau trempé dans une bonne dilution de ma peinture au dessus de ma feuille ....
puis j' ajoute de petits détails comme des étoiles et des cœurs que je colorie avec un marqueur blanc Posca

Here is now the result and the #caturday painting !

I hope you have enjoyed this HOW TO and that it made you want to express your inner child in a joyous and colorful way ! ^_^

[coloringiship]

LOL. Nice one @barbara-orenya. I frequently got such comments. Probably I should create a doodle sticker just for spammers XD.

[coloringiship]

That's fantastic. I really love the stencil effect. The tutorial is very simple and I am sure anyone can do this. It can definitely be done in other medium as well.

[barbara-orenya]

Oh wow this beautiful squirrel is huge ! Hope he didn't eat all your provision of hazelnuts ^_^

[zorank]

This awesome technique brings gorgeous art result! You have my upvote and follow!

[barbara-orenya]

[prydefoltz]

That's wonderful. I never thought of painting of pastels. That is genius:)

[barbara-orenya]

these ones are very particular as they are wax and watersoluble, in fact I don't know if the term "pastel" is correct, but it is what is writen on my crayons..but usually pastels are dry and are really not the same media than these Neocolor II...

[prydefoltz]

I have seen them called pastels too ... though traditionally they were oil-based:)

[erikah]

I have to try this dear Barbara! One question: what kind of paper are you using?

[barbara-orenya]

This is a thick paper (250g/m2 - 115 lb), well I would say medium thick, because for bigger size I better use a thicker one of 200 lbs that is initially meant to be used for aquarelle...

[erikah]

Great, mine is 300g/m2 🙌

[barbara-orenya]

Perfect ! ^_^

[krasnalek]

Great ! Sunset for you
