Gifting some positivity..

Sooo.. since I've been very determined to make 2014 the most positive year I've lived so far, I decided to gift some positivity too!
I decided to make this painting for all my friends, family and cousins, which would remind them about how 'Happiness is a choice that we make. It is always upto us to let or not let worries and tensions linger on around us.'

Here is a quick tutorial! 

Drew the outlines using a Camlin pencil of B grade.

I outlined the face and filled the birds using a black Uniball Eye pen, that we generally use for writing.

Filled the words with a red Uniball Eye pen.

Had some pieces of chalk pastels that I used in childhood. Chose the yellow little piece.

Powdered it a little using a cutter.

Spread it a little using some cotton.

Gradually changed the shade from yellow to red from top to bottom.

Voila!

  

Will post more pictures once I frame it. I hope you like it. If you do, I'd love to make it for you too! :D
