This lesson is about the principles of painting light in watercolour.

We'll get to know the theory of light and what are the specifics of painting light in watercolor, we'll learn different watercolor techniques (a la prima and layered washes, edge blur, rubbing, squashing, splashes, salt), we'll talk about the basic principles of drawing - perspective, contrast, shade, reflections, and so on.


 

 

Together we will draw a beautiful sunset landscape with a dazzling, eye-popping sun. The lesson is not long, with concentrated knowledge of watercolour basics, and it’s suitable for beginners.

Materials needed:

I try to use a limited range and a minimum of materials, so you don't need a mountains of paint and thousands of brushes to draw this painting.

◽️Paints (mine by Schmincke):

- cold yellow (Transparent Yellow)

- warm yellow (Turner's Yellow)

- orange (Transparent Orange)

- blue (Cobalt Blue)

In one place I also use sepia (dark brown), but it's not necessary.

◽️Brushes: large soft squirrel/imitation, round or oval goat brush, small synthetic brush with a sharp tip

◽️Paper: for this subject paper is not essential, cellulose paper is also suitable, but I recommend 100% cotton, fin texture, density of 300 gr. (I have Arches Torchon)

◽️Masking tape, can for water, paper towels, pencil and eraser

◽️Ordinary kitchen salt
