SC-S30/W2| "Face/ body painting 🖌️

Hope you all are well. Today I am once again sharing my new creation in this beautiful art challenge of Steemit. Art has always been an interesting activity for me because through it we can express our creative thinking in a beautiful way.

This time I tried to make a body painting of a shark on my arm. The sea world has always been very interesting to me and sharks are powerful sea creatures, that's why I chose this design. I created this painting in stages and used shades of blue and white ripples to make it look like the shark is moving through the water.

Things to use 🎨

For this body painting I used the following:
Acrylic Paints (Blue, Blue, White, Black)
Permanent marker
Paint brushes
Cotton Badass
The water

All these are commonly used for artwork and are also very useful for body painting.

Step by step procedure

First step

First I cleaned my sister arm so that there would be no problem when making the painting. I also drew the beginning shape of the shark with a pencil/ marker. I drew the lines of the shark's head, fins and tail to finish the outline.

Second step

When the basic design was complete, I started painting the body of the shark with blue. In this step I used a fine brush so that the color shows up cleanly.

The third step

I then shaded in the body of the shark with light blue. This makes the design look more elegant and prominent.

Fourth step

Then I highlighted the shark's eye, teeth and body lines with black paint. At this stage, more detail was added to the design and the shark's face began to look more interesting.

The fifth step

I also formed water tinkles and splashes with white paint to form it appear like the shark is moving quickly through the water.

The last step

Finally I redrew the entire outline and corrected the color where needed. This completes my shark body painting design.

The final result

It held me about 20 to 25 minutes to form this body painting and I had a lot of fun during it.

Is painting an art? 🎨

Yes, I suppose painting is a truly beautiful and innovative art. Through painting, man expresses his reflections, sentiments and fancy with the help of colors. Even a simple space can be converted into a beautiful image when we use brushes and colors. This is what makes a painting unique.
Painting is n't just an activity but it's a complete way to express one's imagination. Through diverse colors and designs we can convey our studies and passions to others. That's why painting is considered an significant and beautiful art all over the world. 🎨 ✨
