Learn How to Draw & Paint HUMMINGBIRD AND HIGHLAND COW with Acrylics-Paint & Sip at Home- Art Lesson
PAINTING VIDEO DESCRIPTION – Are you a beginner painter? Want to learn how to paint with acrylics? Looking for an easy 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 highland cow looking at a hummingbird, a whimsical painting “Hummingbird and Highland Cow”. I travelled to Scotland back in 2018, and, although I went to Edinburgh, strolled through Stirling Castle, looked for the Loch Ness Monster on Loch Ness Lake, drank whiskey, ate haggis, took pictures of guys in kilts, listened to bagpipers play on the streets of Glasgow, and drove through the highlands, I never actually saw a highland cow. Just blind luck, I guess. I wish I had because these cows are co cute with their gorgeous heads of curly hair that covers most of their face. Now, hummingbirds, on the other hand, I don’t need to travel to Scotland to try and see, I can just look out into my backyard at my hummingbird feeders. I’m fortunate enough to see one once or twice a week if I’m lucky. They are so tiny, so pretty and so quick, you must have a good eye to catch a glimpse for sure. So, I thought it would be a funny painting to show a Highland cow, with only one visible eye, spotting a Hummingbird fly by. If you like nature, animals, cuteness, humor, cows and birds, then join me and paint a super fun and easy painting. The first lesson you’ll learn in this beginner level painting tutorial is how to paint a background with atmospheric dimension using natural landscape colors to create an outdoor vibe, perfect for setting the tone in this animal portrait image. After learning how to draw a small bird and cute cow with big horns using a dot-to-dot drawing method, you’ll apply a simple base coat to work off of. Then you’ll learn how to paint horns and facial features for your livestock, including, an eye, nose and mouth, using simple techniques. Then you’ll paint hair and fur by using a one brushstroke technique and layers of colors for added depth, texture and movement with an impressionistic style that has a 3-d photo realistic appearance. Then you’ll finish your bird with an eye, beak, feathers and wings by using a one brushstroke technique for blending and color gradients to give form, texture, and dimension for a lifelike effect so real you’ll feel as if the bird is going to fly right off the canvas. With these simple painting methods, you can paint any type of cow you want, whether it’s an Angus, Hereford, Gelbvieh, Limousin, Simmental. And you could paint any type of bird you want, whether it’s a Cardinal, Finch, American Bald Eagle, Mourning Dove, Woodpecker, Chickadee, Owl, or Sparrow. The point is to just have fun with it and make this endearing image meaningful to you! With an enchanting and alluring energy, this image is created in a narrative painting style. 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. I hope you enjoy watching this YouTube art video and let’s get painting and let’s get sipping!
