Sputtering

We’ll introduce techniques that can be used for watercolor painting and more.
Splatters (spattering) refers to a method where you load paint or ink onto a brush, then rub it over a fine mesh or similar surface to scatter it in fine particles.
In the video, it covers the basics of spattering using two brushes, as well as techniques that use a toothbrush and wire mesh.
With a bit of creativity, you can incorporate it into any kind of artwork, so be sure to give it a try.

With just a brush pen or a water brush, you can freely express strength and gentleness in your lettering, creating brush-script art that truly resonates with viewers.
Even simply writing phrases like “Congratulations on your graduation” or “Thank you” in large characters can make the piece feel special.
Adding small illustrations or a touch of color brings an even more festive and warm atmosphere.
Part of the charm is enjoying the act of writing while creating a one-of-a-kind, original message.
Consider incorporating it as a wonderful way to celebrate graduation that will bring smiles to everyone!
A bouquet to accompany the graduation certificate

As a bouquet to accompany a preschool graduation certificate, a hand-drawn bouquet becomes a special piece that conveys heartfelt warmth.
When drawing a bouquet, first decide which flowers you want to depict, then use ballpoint or felt-tip pens, adjusting the nib thickness as you go.
Adding a message or date enhances the sense of occasion, making it a truly commemorative graduation certificate.
By including a hand-drawn bouquet with the certificate, it will look more festive and become a cherished, memorable keepsake.

When graduation season comes around, you can hear cherry blossom songs drifting in from everywhere.
Spring just wouldn’t be spring without sakura, right? Why not add a cherry blossom illustration alongside heartfelt words in the corner of an album or on a message board? With water-soluble colored pencils, you can draw sakura that look like watercolor.
If you want something quick, try making your own cherry blossom stamp.
You can also save time by cutting a sakura shape out of thick paper and dabbing paint with a sponge through the stencil.
Let’s mark this milestone of graduation with vivid cherry blossoms.

Letters that look like illustrations! Here are some ideas for cards drawn using only a dot pen.
A dot pen has a springy tip that lets you create dots in various sizes.
Let’s make cards that children will love.
If you arrange the characters for “graduation from kindergarten” (sotsuen) to look like they’re holding hands, it creates a cute illustration.
Decorating around the letters with motifs like hearts and stars will finish it off as a festive message card.
Try drawing while experimenting with different touches.

We’d like to share ideas for hand-drawn illustration cards that convey a teacher’s kindness and warm presence.
Some children even request, “I love your drawings, teacher!” Why not create a special message card featuring illustrations that only you can draw? The unique charm and warmth of hand-drawn art will gently touch the children’s hearts.
Adding color with colored pencils or pastels will give it a soft, gentle finish.
It’s also lovely to draw a motif that each child likes!
Caricature Graduation Certificate
If you want to make each graduation certificate unique, adding a caricature is a great option.
For example, you could design the right side of the paper like a standard graduation certificate and place a large caricature on the left half.
You can consider various styles, such as more realistic caricatures or cute, chibi-style ones.
Refer to caricatures available online for inspiration and give it a try.
By the way, drawing down to about the chest area tends to fit the layout nicely.
