[Lesson 23] Light Jersey Sweater
I’m so excited for this and the following lessons because finally, you’re gonna apply what you’ve learned so far, and you’re gonna paint garments and accessories!
In this lesson, you’re gonna see how to paint (or color) a light jersey sweater. The process and steps are quite similar to what you saw on the last module with a little tweak. But, remember, you can explore and experiment with the process and steps whenever you want – this exploration and experimentation will help you find your OWN process and style.
Before Starting
To have a perfect learning-practice day, make sure you are ready:
- Gather all your materials, and set them in your favorite place to work with watercolors. Check out the materials list for this lesson below the video.
- Sketch the garment you want to paint before you click play. In the video, I show how to paint a light jersey sweater, so you have to have a sketch of the sweater you want to paint. And, the more sketches you have to paint, the better! For extra help sketching your garments, check out the course Fashion Illustration for Beginners 🙂
- Determine the colors you want for the garment.
- Play your favorite music, and now you’re ready!
Are you ready? Let’s go!
