جدول المحتويات
Section I Earring Design Practicing
1. Material Cutting and Matching
2. Size Specifications
3. Drawing Key Points
(1) The overlay of gem colors should blend, rich but not abrupt.
(2) The metallic texture is expressed through color gradients, reflections, and highlights.
(3) When composing, it is necessary to consider the display characteristics of an earring design, and different angles can be chosen for representation.
4. Drawing Steps
Step 01 Begin with partial sections. Use a pencil to outline the earring’s metal parts based on perspective principles, ensuring clear structural definition and characteristic form.
Step 02 Sketch the contour of the earring pendant with loose, natural-flowing lines.
Step 03 Add another earring at a different angle beside the first one to showcase design features from multiple perspectives, enhancing the composition.
Step 04 Add details, refine line art, polish local shapes, and erase redundant lines to maintain cleanliness.
Step 05 Lighten the pencil sketch with a soft eraser to prevent smudging during coloring. Mix yellow ochre and flesh tone to apply a base layer to the metal parts, suggesting basic light-dark relationships.
Step 06 Blend burnt umber and burnt sienna. Use a small watercolor brush to paint metallic shadows, intensifying contrast and three-dimensionality.
الإرشادات
When applying the base color, you can first brush a layer of water on the areas that need coloring to ensure a natural color transition.
Step 07 Wet the gemstone area. Mix rose madder and violet to apply the amethyst’s base layer. Once slightly dry, add sapphire blue to define shadows and enhance chromatic complexity, emphasizing faceted effects.
Step 08 Paint the earring’s cast shadow. Highlight reflections and sparkle with white pigment. Adjust and finalize the artwork to complete.
5. Summary of Techniques
(1) How do you express the volume of gemstones?
The volume of gemstones can be expressed through variations in color depth and highlights, and it is important to depict the facets of the gemstones.
(2) How do you blend and diffuse colors in the painting?
The colors in watercolor are often not painted on but can mix or blend freely on the paper, thus creating a natural color effect. Learning this skill requires a lot of practice and familiarity with the characteristics of your painting tools, such as watercolor brushes, paper, and paints, as well as practicing and mastering moisture control.
(3) How to keep the painting clean?
During the drawing process, you can place a tissue under your hand to prevent sweat from dirtying the painting. Drawing paper is often very easy to get dirty; once it is dirty, it isn’t easy to apply color. Therefore, when painting for a long time, you can place a tissue or wash your hands after painting to solve this problem effectively.
Section II Ring Design Practicing
1. Material Cutting and Matching
This ring design mainly uses garnet, ruby, and rose gold. The main part features a red semi-circular garnet with a glass-like luster, while the band is made of metal paired with irregular rubies crafted using inlay techniques. The overall color scheme is passionate, vibrant, and lively.
Since it combines garnet, which symbolizes loyalty, authenticity, friendship, and blessings, with ruby, which symbolizes nobility and love, this ring can be worn as a talisman or given as a gift to elders or loved ones.
2. Size Specifications
3. Key Points for Drawing
(1) Pay attention to the representation of the gem’s transparency.

Step 05 Wet the garnet area on the ring’s main section. Mix vermilion with violet to paint the gemstone’s base color, reserving highlight areas.
Step 06 Blend rose madder, cerulean blue, and violet to deepen the gemstone’s shadows, ensuring natural color transitions.
Step 07 Dilute rose madder with water to apply the ruby’s base layer on the ring band. Use lemon yellow for a faint base layer on metal parts, leaving intentional gaps for breathability.
Step 08 Mix burnt umber and vermilion. Use a small watercolor brush to define the ring band’s shadows and refine metal details.
Step 09 Blend rose madder and violet to refine the ruby’s shadows.
Step 10 Deepen metal shadows with raw umber. Paint the ring’s cast shadow with Payne’s grey. Adjust and complete the artwork.
5. Summary of Techniques
(1) How do you express the volume of gemstones?
When drawing gemstones, the sense of volume is generally expressed through variations in color depth and the depiction of highlights and reflections.
(2) How do we unify the color tone of the picture?
Every picture has its main tonal feeling. This chapter’s design renderings of jade rings are primarily in red and yellow, leaning towards warm tones. Therefore, the colors in the picture should not be too many to avoid chaos or inconsistent tones.
(3) How to accurately grasp the external characteristics of jewelry?
First, observe and analyze the perspective relationships of the jewelry, then determine the local shapes’ design style and characteristics, and finally start from the outer contour and gradually refine the internal structure.
