Learn to Paint Muffins Without Reference

Hi everyone, my name is nia and in this class, I’ll be painting these muffins without reference. This does not mean we’re not going to look at refrences, but instead I’m going to show you how I look for references in order to study them, so we pick characteristics that we like when it comes to the shapes, colours and form, and from there, we’ll be able to paint our own version.
I will also include the drawing portion of this painting, so you’ll be able to make your own base sketch, however if you’d like to get right to painting, I’ll also have the outline available for you to download in the projects and resources section. You do have to download this through desktop though, so keep this in mind, if you’re watching this on mobile. In this class I’ll be showing you 3 types which are the classic choc chip muffin, in this case I’m going to paint them as chuncks, a blueberry muffin and lastly a raspberry white chocolate muffin. These are just the flavours that I’ve chosen, but in terms of how to paint the cake portion of the muffin, this can be brought across many different flavours, so hopefully the techniques that you’ll learn here will help you paint muffins out of your imagination. Since I’ll be painting a simple composition with 3 types of muffins, some of the steps are quite repetitive. So, by the 3rd muffin, though I will be showing you how I paint it step by step just like the others, I won’t be instructing parts which I’ve repeated twice in the previous lessons, but instead, you can take the time to put what you’ve learnt into practice and build your own independence in painting this subject matter. This painting, though it’s not really difficult, it does require some basic watercolour techniques, like colour mixing, (and things) like brush and water control. So, I would recommend this to be class for intermediate painters, but if you just started with watercolours but you feel like you have a good feel and grasp of the medium, feel free to give this a go, and see what the experience is like. I'll be demonstrating and teaching you with my usual pace, step by step but like usual as a disclaimer before we start the class (if you've never taken my classes before), I will be speeding or skipping parts of the painting where the steps are getting a bit repetitive or if my hand is inactive or off the camera. So I’d always recommend for you guys to watch the class or each lesson before painting along so you know what’s going to come next in terms of the steps. And when you’re ready to paint along feel free to pause in between each step so there’s no rush and you can work at your own pace before you move on to the next step.
