Here are some underwater painting ideas to recreate @prada_paint_project’s painting:
MATERIALS REQUIRED:
Menorah Mixed Media Sketchbook
Acrylics
Flat brush
Round brush
To achieve the exact shades of the sea in the underwater painting, three colors- cobalt blue, ultra- marine blue and white are used. The sketchbook is tilted and used vertically to maximize the space and create more details in the painting.
Place a drop of cobalt blue and white paint at the top of the sketchbook to form the light blue water layer at the top. This is followed by a drop of cobalt blue and then ultra- marine blue for the darker shades of deep sea.
Use a flat brush and blend them all in layers to achieve a gradient.
2.Sunshine
Choose a point at the top of the sketchbook where the sun is visible from below, in a worm’s eye view.
Use a flat brush to paint the rays extending downwards and upwards. Use a round brush to make a circle at that point and fill it with white paint to make it look like the sun, as visible from under water.
3.Dive right in
Make an outline of a diver with a pencil on the 180 GSM sketchbook. Color it with black acrylic to match the colour of the scuba gear.
4. Make waves
To add more depth to the painting, draw short wave-like patterns at the tops with ultra-marine blue using a round brush.
An easy yet alluring painting is now in your hands! Experience the joy painting, exploring and adventure with Menorah sketchbooks.
Underwater Curing Epoxy Coating
Underwater curing coatings are two-component, formulated with special resins, extender pigments, fillers and curing agents. Its biggest feature is that it can continue to cure underwater to form a strong, high-strength paint film. It is mainly used for anticorrosion of cement and steel structures in bridge piers and sea-blocking dams immersed in water for a long time. The applying method is to scrape the prepared paint on a plastic cloth, then wrap the plastic cloth on the object to be coated and compact it to prevent it from being washed away by water.
Advantages of Underwater Curing Epoxy Coating
- Strong hydrophobic nature
- Good physical and chemical characteristics
- Excellent water and alkali resistance
- It can normally cure and form film in water medium at normal temperature
two components base : hardener=3:1 by weight
Dry Film Thickness
Coverage Rate (Theoretical)
0.1kg/m 2 /100μm 0.077liter/m 2 /100μm
