VIDEO DESCRIPTION - Looking for a Halloween painting idea? This canvas painting tutorial will take you through easy to follow, step-by-step instructions on how to paint a witch in this Halloween painting portrait landscape image of “WITCHY WOMEN“. You’ll learn simple painting techniques that will help you to develop this fun spooky creation filled with dimension, bold colors, long flowing dresses, a magical potion and a fire filled cauldron! Whether you want yours to have 1 or 10 witches, you’ll have fun painting them walking down the enchanted spiritual forest pathway that will take them into a far away imaginary place with a Halloween holiday storybook illustration feel to it. In this witch painting, you’ll learn how to paint this playful rendition of mythical ladies dressed up in flowing cloaks, carrying objects to transport their spells and potions. Learn how to use simple painting techniques for blending the background for added depth and atmospheric dimension. You can personalize the type of hat or clothing, type of objects they are holding, or the colors, to symbolize your favorite style, or maybe a person you know. Maybe you paint a black cat, a bat, or a crow, or perhaps they pass by a big apple tree with autumn leaves all around, or a pumpkin patch. Instead of a fall scene, you could paint a winter or spring scene with snow or flowers, or change the sky to night with a bright shining moon and stars. Perhaps these women can represent your sisters or best friends. This is an Halloween acrylic painting inspired by the power of imagination, so feel free to use yours! Let the characters be the focal point and the colors natural with vibrant hues using carefree paint strokes. You’ll learn how to add texture to the grass and dimension to the hat, hair, dresses and bodies to create a 3D realistic affect. The figures of the witch characters will come to life with the movement of wavy curly hair laying over the shoulders and the fabric from the long skirts on the ground. The complimentary colors will bring cohesion and harmony, creating a symphony of warm fall colours and good balance throughout the composition. Influenced by fantasy thoughts and creative curiosity, this simple acrylic painting becomes a fun symbol of deviant art honoring the magical fantasy themes, fortune tellers and the thin veil between our world and the dead or afterlife. This easy Halloween witch painting will be fun to create and you will learn some valuable lessons along the way on how to create an expressive image that is charming and whimsical like the three witches in the rings of power. Using only 3 brushes and 7 colors we’ll create this conversational masterpiece and perfect Halloween decor. Paint at home, alone, or with friends! Have a date night, paint party, or virtual paint night. Paint with gouache, oil paint, or water colour, any medium will work! Paint just because it’s art therapy.
