Painting People Simply in Watercolours

Painting People Simply in Watercolours, is this week's video tutorial presentation for you. 4 years ago I made my first serious watercolour video made in the corner of my garage, with poor audio and poor filming. The actor wasn't up to much either, lol. Over 74,000 people have viewed and enjoyed this 10 min tutorial.
Anyway, I wanted to revisit this subject with a longer tutorial offering more insight and improved audio and filming techniques. BTW the actor has also been trained a little better, we hope.

The palette box is a cheaper version of a Holbein offering a 20-slot palette. If honest I have way more colours than if ever use. I often only use a few of these and a version of this palette with fewer slots would be better for most.
My brushes are mainly Rosemary and Co, Sable, and Synthetics.
My watercolour palette is as follows:

Excellent. Thank you. Loved how you carried on with the figures that you said had gone wrong because you really showed how to go about correcting them, and they looked great at the end.

[@colleenmcchesney1482]

I have really got to sit down & practice this very subject matter this week! I have been hesitant about placing people into my landscapes even suggestively because of the uncertainty of how to go about. This has been a great valuable lesson for me to give a go & to loosen up on trying to get more detailed people in my paintings. Thanks for sharing this wonderful information with us. I really appreciate it!

[@paulappswildlifeart]

Hi Colleen, thank you for that and hope it has done the trick, cheers P

[@wendys3482]

Thank you Paul, a great informative video. Having watched your 1st demo on this 4 years ago, I'd like to say congrats on all your recording techniques since then, you've come a long way in the last few years. As someone previously mentioned, it would be great to see how to go about figures in positions other than standing, such as sitting on a seat in a café or a waiting room or on the ground as in a picnic or on the beach. Further still, some life drawing/painting tutorials in the future would be fantastic. Glad you're on the road to recovery from your lurgy!

[@paulappswildlifeart]

Thats a great idea Wendy and thank you so much, I will make a plan, cheers P

[@GKganesan]

[@deborahcorreale352]

This was a great tutorial on putting people in watercolor paintings, you definitely made it seem a lot less scary than I had it built up in my mind. Thank you

[@paulappswildlifeart]

It is a case of relax and let it happen, do not over think the situation and simply have fun, cheers P

[@rajeevkatarya2911]

Brilliant. You sir are a gentleman, a very fine teacher and a great artist. Thank you.

A lot of men. Women are more difficult using this small, suggestive figure stuff...because the legs are harder when there's a dress or skirt or women's style slacks.
