For my draw and paint class, I am painting a portfolio that requires acrylic paint as it's main medium. Other mediums could be incorporated into the final piece.
The question I'm asking is, is there a technique to get a dripping paint effect? On the piece I'm painting, there are ice cream cones that are upside down and dripping. What would one suggest to get a full real effect of it looking like it was melting?Getting dripping paint appearance on a painting?
Load your brush heavily and let it drip where you want the drips. It will take a lot of control. Afterwards, add some highlights or shadows.Getting dripping paint appearance on a painting?
The way you shade would be key, the best way anyone can learn to create an effect that is in motion is to observe a model of it. Go get some Ice cream and watch it melt, shape is also very important, but to really show the drip you'll need to be able to show the depth really well. There isn't much for painting technique tutorials on the net, you might be able to find some for digital imaging, that might help, just seeing it in 2 dimensions...
get a cone and take several pictures of it and pick the one you like print it off and paint it that's the way i do it
