Hi Katrina I like your videos of all the light painting. I would like to try these but this is my first time. How do I get started with this light painting ? I was also wondering what kind of paper you are using that is shinny ?

[@madebykatrina]

@@fumeisorteberg4951 hi, thank you for your kind words! 😊 if you’re new to using inkscape, i suggest you to watch inkscape beginner course in youtube. And just follow the step by step tutorial i made and practice. With regards to the paper, I used a glossy photo paper 120gsm here. I can share the template to you, so you can try it for yourself. 😊 Hope this helps and happy crafting drive.google.com/drive/folders/1B3P3JhRkwM6QhJ0PMIJ2PBHbagD3kqQn drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WrvOsdx66MgttEp0J12d69ymAm5g3UR4 If you have any questions, please let me know here in the comments section

[@helbert0811]

Hi nice art work❤. I have a question for all 3 layers is it all glossy photo paper? Thanks

[@madebykatrina]

Hello! ❤ In this light painting tutorial, I used three sheets of glossy photo paper with a weight of 120gsm :)

[@tsuna1593]

I bought a picture frame like this online but wanted to make it myself. But the picture I bought was a hard disk. What should I do to make the picture look as hard as the one I bought? Sorry I'm not very proficient in English.

[@madebykatrina]

Sorry for late reply.. If I understand correctly, you bought a light painting online and want to make one yourself, and you want the image sturdy? To solve this, you can use thin paper and laminate it. Just layer three sheets of thin paper and laminate them together. Here's a tutorial on how to do it: kzbin.info/www/bejne/sIuQnqNreNmaeNEsi=M94SWF4PNc5dWhJL Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any questions 😊✨

[@mrpradana1973]

What LED strips do you use for it? I'm confused with 220V in the online marketplace. I also watched your previous video, and i think it's the same think LED/light source you use for this tutorial. Any suggestion?

[@madebykatrina]

Hello! :) I used LED fairy lights (warm), but you can also use a 0.5-meter LED strip light for a brighter light effect. Here's an Amazon link for reference: www.amazon.co.uk/Dimmable-Flexible-Self-Adhesive-Commercial-Backlight/dp/B09D7K5Q35/ref=asc_df_B09D7DDK7R/?tag=googshopuk-21&linkCode=df0&hvadid=570302354134&hvpos=&hvnetw=g&hvrand=8523738776217669470&hvpone=&hvptwo=&hvqmt=&hvdev=c&hvdvcmdl=&hvlocint=&hvlocphy=1007216&hvtargid=pla-1679930970954&mcid=49213921991b3c8aa3f44434960fa971&th=1 Hope this helps with your project!

[@nurchalissa2009]

What kind of paper do you use?

[@madebykatrina]

Hi! I used glossy photo paper, but any A4 paper will do just fine 🙂

[@GravityDropple]

Hi, love your artwork! Do you have any tips or trick for someone who want to start praticing?

[@GravityDropple]

Also, what's best? using glossy paper photos or A4 85 GSM?

[@GravityDropple]

Last, how about the lighting ya? what color did you use?

[@madebykatrina]

Hello! Thank you so much 😊 If you’re new to line art and Inkscape, i suggest you watch the Inkscape beginner course on youtube. You should know at-least the basic tool functions and command, they have a thorough explanation on each tools and some guide exercise. You can use both, I suggest if you could experiment and test them both and see which is better that suit to your needs. For me personally. I used a thin material between 80 to 100 gsm, so the light can still pass through. I used an LED fairy light (warm), but much better if you have the LED light strip. Hope this helps 🤍

@@madebykatrina ok and which software do you use

[@GravityDropple]

Hi Katrina, I've succeeded create the art using your resources & i'm also using the same lighting but when i turn on the LED, the LED just like stars not spread out & bright like yours Is it because of the depth of the frame? or my LED not bright enough?

[@GravityDropple]

Actually my frame not deep like yours... you can say the LED & paper is stick each other when i close the back of the frame... should i search for another frame ya?

[@GravityDropple]

Or may i know your frame thickness please?

[@madebykatrina]

Hi there! I'm glad to hear you created the art using the resources. To address the issue with the LED light, here's the specific materials I used: 100gsm Canon Paper, 120GSM Koala Glossy Photo Paper and Fairy Light (warm) Regarding the frame, it's indeed crucial for creating the desired effect. My frame depths are 1.5 inches for the landscape frame and 1 inch for the square frame. The space between the LED and the paper allows the light to spread out evenly. Given that your frame is not as deep, it might be a good idea to look for a deeper frame to create the desired effect. I'll be sharing more details about the frame I used in my next content, which will be uploaded next week. I'll include a downloadable file template for your reference. Feel free to try it out, and if you have any more questions, I'm here to help. Thank you for your interest!

[@GravityDropple]

Thank you for the reply, actually i'm only using 120 GSM for line, shadow & original @@madebykatrina What's 100gsm for? Ahh that's why my lighting looks like a stars hahaha I''ll try too look for desired frame first.... if no luck, maybe i'll try to create one using paperboard

[@madebykatrina]

@@GravityDropple 120gsm is fine; I've used it for my Totoro piece as well. Remember, the thinner the paper on the front, the better the effect. Now, about those frames! If you're on the hunt, Amazon's got some cool shadow box frames. Alternatively, you can get creative and make your own version using paper cardstock, just like I did. Let me know how your second attempt goes. Cheers! 🌟
