Welcome to Draw Tip Tuesday! So last week we made this season greeting card and it could certainly use some color. Now let's do a little experiment here. Dive into your kitchen cupboard and see what kind of ground spices you got. I found these warm colored spices, cinnamon, turmeric and paprika. Now who says you can't play with your food? Let's add some color and smell to our drawing. Ok let's start this experiment. I'm curious to see if this will work. Add water to your spice powder until you think you have the right consistency. Then paint with it. I'm using the turmeric for a bright yellow background. If I add enough water it mixes quite nicely into a watercolor kind of paint. The paprika has a nice red color and even though it stays a bit powdery it works great for this red and white striped strong. The cinnamon doesn't have a super strong color but I can definitely use it for some toning. The cinnamon doesn't completely dissolve into the water but the tiny grains actually add a bit of structure that I like. Those white letters can use something extra so I'll color them too. Let's also mix two colors. The yellow turmeric and the brown cinnamon can add some extra warmth to splash around with. And some extra paprika to top it off. There we go. Leave it for a while to dry and see if you can make more of this fun spicy art. Do you need more inspiration? Head on over to my website, ko shikuna.nl.
