Let's paint the World Together

Painting is one of the most relaxing and stress relieving pass times to pursue. From poster colours to oil colours, acrylic painting has many styles. Even an ordinary pencil sketching can be as relieving as a day at the spa.

Of course, all of us want to paint miracle and masterpieces. That's why it is essential to know some basics before we begin to paint our Paradise...

Finding totally clueless about colours?

It is indeed a tough to decide which colours to go with. I started painting when I was 9 years old, and back then, the only thing I was allowed was cake watercolours. But with time, we know not only learn to hold the brush properly but also brush up our skills and become eligible of doing much more.


Here's how you can find the best colours for yourself!

If you are a beginner and have just tried your hands on painting then the best thing to go for would be the ordinary watercolour tubes. The brand I trust is Faber Castle, but initially, I was recommended to use Camlin watercolours.

Once you become accustomed to the watercolour techniques which we will be seeing over time, you can switch to artist colours and imported paint tubes.


The colours used here are the Faber Castle artist watercolour tube. In due course, we will also see the kinds of papers and brushes you can use.

Paper used- Chitrapat Drawing Paper Blocks (270GSM - rough)
Brush numbers- ROUND(00,1) and FLAT(5)

So assess yourself and find your needs. If you have any queries, then lemme know the comment section down below. I would be glad to help to get started with painting... And do let me know your views about my painting too. Let's paint the world together.

Happy Painting...

Chuck It and MOVE ON...

Hey, Guys. it's been a very long time since I've posted something... We've been bringing you everything from the hand-lettering ideas to watercolour techniques lately. But this time it's going to be some "Preach work"... Yeah, you heard it right. Have you ever been in a situation that people around you think that they can use you as a silly little moron whenever they want, take you for granted and then toss you into the trashcan? Then you are in the right place. So without further ado, I am going to tell you "5 Steps to NOT GIVE A SHIT!"  Number 1 Realize that you are too hard on yourself to give a damn. That's the first step you need to know. As long as you keep going on with the stuff by adjusting with it, you will be the one to suffer. Number 2 Forgive and forget! Umm no... Letting that shit go does not always mean turning a blind eye to it. Sometimes, you need to raise your voice and put "people" back to their places. Be

Father's day Special

It's 18th of June and finally Father's day. I live in a hostel, so there plenty of moments when I wish my parents and I enter the #Homesick mode. The best way to escape that is to indulge Arts and dedicate them something. So, I made this Father's day Hand-Lettering long back when I was missing my dad terribly. And the time has come when I can show that too you, to inspire you so that you can make one like this too... Feel free to experiment with styles and fonts. Make something for your dad and make him feel special... Happy Hand-Lettering! AND... HAPPY FATHER'S DAY TO ALL THE DAD S!!

Exploring more of Watercolouring

One thing that I find interesting about water-colour is that you can try a lot of super-cool techniques.  It seems like I have used a stencil in this painting but with water-colour, it is possible to do this without a stencil. Water-colour has an amazing property of transparency and spreading in water. To make this amazing bird painting or any other painting in this technique, draw the basic image and paint the outside with clean water using the brush, this is called 'wash'. Before the water dries, take your desired colour and apply it on the wet area. The colour instantly spreads to give this kind of texture.  So, it's time to try this technique yourself... Happy Water-colouring!!!
