Feeling the warmth of the candle in my hand.

Friends of hive, from this moment on, I'm going to show you the process of creating this simple illustration. I made it at a time when thoughts fly and when a light bulb turns on, positive ideas come to the understanding of the thinking human being. This was the main reason for reflective human thinking, which I did as follows:

• First and foremost, I made the graphite pencil sketch, the same one that was highlighting with a blue pencil some gray and brown for the lamp and a touch of yellow for the lit candle, as shown in the slides, while I have a moment to think about how this illustration should be

• A bluish color that goes from the most intense to the lightest where the light emanating from the lamp is revealed. I am going to paint the lamp with different shades of brown to simulate a nice wooden pedestal. I am also already coloring part of the hand and arm. Everything up to now has been worked with watercolor using the technique of watercolor.

• I've already made quite a bit of progress. First, taking into account that the lamp is a candle lamp and is lit, I placed a metal stand on its base, painted hope green to prevent accidents. The hand has a green-red decoration. Well, it's part of a detail or a flirtation of my broad creative artistic concept, since I didn't want to leave the hand bare. However, I continued with the work, adding light green triangular tones that start from the illuminated area of ​​the lamp, followed by a space illuminated with light yellow tones, like the surrounding lighting. place.

• The decoration of the hand extended towards the arm with an almost repetitive rhythm, which I like. I've already colored the candle and lit its strong flame, which for the illustration is the flame of knowledge and understanding, which generates heat but doesn't burn me, apart from the decoration of the lamp's glass that protects the candle from the opposing winds that might want to extinguish it.

• And so on, between details and outlines, the illustration that I present to you today became possible. Title:

Feeling the warmth of the candle in my hand.

Friends interested in my illustration, I hope that the illuminating power of thought will always accompany you, whether like the dim light of a candle, a light bulb, or the sun, or like the joys to come in your daily life.

Thank you very much for your kind attention.

Sincerely,

Angélica García.
