PAINTING VIDEO DESCRIPTION – Are you a beginner painter? Want to learn how to paint with acrylics? Looking for an easy figure painting idea? Let me be your acrylic art instructor as I teach you easy step-by-step instructions throughout this fun beginner art video as you learn how to paint a woman walking into a body of water naked—a fun portrait landscape “SUNSET SKINNY DIP”. Did you know that prior to 1947, it was actually considered the norm to swim naked? According to the ever-trusting google search, it was acceptable and pretty much practiced everywhere, for people to swim sans clothing. And it was not until 1947 when the term “skinny dipping” was first coined after advancements in swimwear material that could dry fast made it no longer necessary to swim in the buff. Personally, I’m not a fan of swimming in the nude in the ocean, lake, pond or river, because I am a little worried about dirt and other creepy crawlies getting into certain cervices, but taking the naked plunge in a clean pool is fine by me. So, join me and celebrate the good ole’ days of socially acceptable birthday suit swimming and paint a brave lady in this romantic and alluring image enjoying her moment of solitude as she goes for a dip in the water completely naked. The painting process is so easy to follow and learn from. First, you’ll learn how to use simple painting techniques for blending colors and adding depth and atmospheric dimension for a beautiful and dramatic background by capturing a sunset or sunrise, creating a feel of warmth and comfort. Then you’ll learn how to use a one brushstroke stippling technique for the illusion of painting trees with branches and leaves. Then, after learning how to draw an outline for your swimmer using a simple dot-to-dot method, you’ll then apply a base coat foundation to work off of. You’ll learn how to mix a natural skin tone and then paint skin and hair by layering colors for the highlights and shadows giving form and dimension to the body and texture to the hair creating a realistic 3-D effect like a photograph. You’ll be amazed at how easy it will be to create your masterpiece. You can personalize your painting in any way you want and add your favorite flower to the trees, whether it’s rose, orchid, bird of paradise, daisy, pansy or lily. Turn it into a romantic couple’s painting and add a second person. This is a painting inspired by the power of imagination, so feel free to use yours! The painting process is so simple you’ll feel like it is a paint by numbers. Using only 3 brushes and 6 colors, you’ll paint like a professional! Have a date night at home, paint party, paint and sip event, or virtual paint night. Paint with gouache, oil paint, or watercolor, any medium will work! Paint just for fun or for art therapy. It's an easy art project, a simple canvas painting, a fun acrylic lesson, an easy online art class. I hope you enjoy watching this YouTube art video and let's get painting and let's get sipping!
