Advancing with Watercolor: Christopher Columbus Park - Composing and Center of Interest

- Опубликовано: 19 июн 2018
- This is part one of a muti-part series which focuses on painting in the field - en plein air - and developing the sketch or study back in the studio.
I feel it is very important for the artist to work from life on a regular basis. The paintings are not always what you hope but the experience yields an important knowledge of light , form and color. It is my experience that this translates into the painting repeated at the studio, and you know what - it is a lot of fun to sit and paint some of the beautiful scenes we see in our daily life!!
This series is structured around the urban parks in Boston and today we are in Christopher Columbus - an amazing park in the North End that has unequaled views of Boston Skyline. I start by talking about Composition and a center of interest.

Thank you Gary, these have been very useful. I have a tendency to put things smack in the center no matter how hard I try and move them.
Great painting. Looks wonderful
As always, highly informative for people like me who want to paint loosely. You are such an amazing teacher !!
I love the way you put the shadows on the trees and create the 3 dimensional quality.. I guess I will have to start mashing my brush a little more.. thanks.

Lovely 😊
I enjoyed your video lesson. Thanks for doing these. I wondered if I heard right when I thought you said you were using some white paint right out of the tube and that it is transparent watercolor? Can you please say more about what you are using. Thanks again.
I also add a big thank you for the narrative as you paint. I love to hear theory on composition and motivation for placement, colour, story etc. I often forget some of this and just go paint and sadly stare at a work that just doesn’t make it. These pearls of wisdom from your videos are priceless. Thank you. I also was amazed at how you added the highlight to your figures in the bottom left corner. I assume it was Chinese white, but you said it was a transparent colour applied thickly over dark paint. May I ask what you used?
