Today I'm showing you step by step how to paint figures in watercolor.
I am painting on Saunders Waterford Cold Press 140lb paper. I have my surface tilted to 35 degrees. I use a variety of brands of brushes. I mainly stick to a large mop, medium round and smaller synthetic brush with a point.
Here are the list of pigments on my palette:
Burnt Sienna
Cadmium Red
Cadmium Yellow Medium
Cerulean Blue
Cobalt Blue
Cobalt Teal Blue
Cobalt Turquoise
Lavender
Neutral Tint
Payne's Gray
Quinacridone Gold
Raw Sienna
Raw Sienna Light
Raw Umber
Rose Madder Permanent
Ultramarine Blue

thank you very much for your generosity

New subscriber here. Might have been a challenge but you pulled it off beautifully. Professional artist here since 1995 but just recently became interested in water color. Your channel is a gem. I’ll keep hanging out here👍

I love the commentary format walking you through the steps of the painting.

[@MRmeggy96]

You do an absolute amazing job teaching and solving these specific issues that we, as amateur painters, don't really get how to rationally approach, although we get that the output isn't great. Thank you for making it clear and easy to understand. Lovely video!! 😊👌

[@elahewison4446]

Such good tips, especially for a nervous novice.

[@feligabel]

you are awesome! I just started painting landscapes because of your videos (I always said to myself, I can't paint landscapes)... you are helping so much and you are really good at analyzing what needs to be done and also to explain what you know. Thank you so much!

Thank you for this demo. Can you tell me how damp or dry was the sky when you added the roof?

What’s hard for me is learning to sketch….I’m working on creating a painting of my grandfather and I sitting on our front porch,a favorite memory. I’ve sketch it on a 6x9 but would you recommend going larger? I’m just learning watercolor.

[@loisgibbs7524]

Is it hot or cold press is it rough or smooth?

[@sujanithtottempudi2991]

Can we paint first people then paint surroundings? Whats the problem with this idea?

[@loisgibbs7524]

What weight is your paper?

Hi Matthew, it's better to have no mustache and a beard than the other way.😊

[@linaba5834]

No, looks stylish
