What we are going to do is create a cloned painting and I figure using a DNA helix would be quite clever. Maybe not, I don't hear anybody over there laughing. Is this on? OK so what we are gonna we are going to file and we are gonna choose quick clone and as you see here that our clone is based on the original source. So that means when we paint the hues, and luminosity values are all gonna come from the data in this picture. Like real clones. And when you clone something you're basing the data on an original source, same applies here. And don't forget we can click this button here to turn the tracing paper off and on and I do this all the time so I can see how it's coming along. For this particular piece of artwork I'm going to go to my cloners variance here and I think I'll keep it on the camel oil cloner and I'm going to reduce the size of the brush to about ten pixels. Also zoom in just a little tiny bit and I'm gonna start painting. Normally when you're using the clone brush you want to make sure that you're following the line of whatever the source is. And of course I just want to start off here and I'm gonna turn the paper off so I can see how its coming along. And I do that while I'm painting off and on. Gonna follow this entire strand here and as you see I can paint one broad stroke like that but it's not gonna look too good. I want to make sure that it looks like a real person painted this with real paints. So I'm gonna use various strokes to achieve that result, kind of a circular motion to follow the parts of the helix here. And I'm gonna stop right there and I'll come down this chain and we'll go down this guy here and once again I like to see how it's coming along. OK great. You can always change the size of the brush if you really want to get more detail at any time. Don't forget use the forward with a right bracket to increase the size of the brush. And the left bracket to decrease the size of the brush. Alright so I'm just gonna go over this part right here and then I'm going to increase the size of the brush so we can go ahead and play around with the background. It might even be an interesting effect to try a different brush just to see if we can separate the actual helix from the background a little bit and give this pretty scientific object here a little bit more of a cool painterly feel. So let's see how this looks, OK great I like that a lot, like I said before I'll do this part later on, on my own. Let's go ahead and choose a different brush like maybe the crayon cloner. That might look kind of cool and I'm gonna really increase the size of this a little bit. And yeah it looks great, I'm gonna go ahead and just make a couple of crazy strokes here. I'm not gonna try to be perfect. And I'll decrease the size of that so I can get a little bit more detail. Right about here. And inside I'm leaving some space deliberately. One thing that you have to remember is that yes you are painting on a computer but you still want to give the illusion that you've used natural media. So you want to make it a little bit sloppy. Maybe that's just how I paint. But, I want to leave some of this randomness to it. Let's go ahead and hide that, very cool so far. I'll increase the size of the brush again and I'm gonna come over here and grab some more of this area. This is a lot easier when you have a digital tablet because you can really vary the strokes by applying more or less pressure. So in some places I'm pushing really hard with a nice blue splotches that look a little dark. And some areas are very, very light. Let's go back to a smaller brush and grab our camel hair again. And go back into the helix. Once again I am varying the pressure, I am varying the direction of the stroke because we have all of this stuff happening in this strand here and none of it is straight. It's all going in different directions. So you want to kind of follow that and emulate that. See how that is coming along. OK and you, don't forget you can also turn that tracing paper off and just remember what you saw and try to follow it on your own. Tracing paper is pretty much just a guide to help you out. Go back to the crayon again and I'm gonna increase the size of that just a little bit and get in between the strands like so. I'm gonna just add a couple of more splotches here, make believe this is inside the human body or something like that so we have this crazy stuff happening, almost like a galaxy in there. And let's go ahead and look at our original and compare it to the painting, so let's see. We have this guy, I'll hold my space bar down so I can move this up and we have our painting. Just by using cloner brushes we are able to achieve a very cool look based on original source material.
