A lace curtain can add a soft and elegant touch to your coloring pages, especially in an underwater scene! Today, we’ll be working on a page from "Ocean Home", illustrated by Southern Lotus Coloring Book, to create a beautiful lace effect using Ohuhu Markers. Follow this step-by-step tutorial to achieve a delicate and transparent curtain with a magical, underwater vibe!
Step 1: Color the Background with G234
Begin by filling the entire background with G234, creating a soft greenish-blue base that mimics the calmness of underwater scenery. Keep your strokes even for a smooth backdrop.
Step 2: Color the Hidden Parts with BG4
Apply BG4 to the hidden or shaded parts of the curtain. This darker blue shade helps to define depth and enhance the illusion of folds and layers in the curtain.
Step 3: Add Water Texture with Colorless Blender
Use a colorless blender to draw straight horizontal lines across the background. The blender's transparent effect creates a soft wave-like texture, giving the scene a subtle underwater feel.
Step 4: Create Lace Effect with White Acrylic Pen
For the lace effect, dot the white acrylic pen along the curtain. Then, trace over the black outline of the curtain to create a transparent, delicate look. The white detailing adds a lace-like charm, transforming the curtain into a soft, elegant feature of the drawing.
Your page now features a beautiful lace curtain with a soft, underwater glow that adds an elegant and serene vibe to your coloring project. This technique is perfect for creating delicate and dreamy scenes and pairs beautifully with the ocean-inspired designs in the Southern Lotus Coloring Book.
