3. Watercolour Washes - An Introduction for Beginners
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 15 авг 2024
- In this video I show you the basic techniques for making watercolour washes. We look at flat washes, graded washes and variegated washes and the difference between painting these wet-on-dry and painting them wet-on-wet. I also demonstrate another type of wash that I use all the time in my landscape paintings
If you are new to watercolour painting, you will find that these techniques will provide you with essential building blocks to help you progress with your landscape painting.
Happy painting and thanks for watching!

I learned more from your tutorial videos than from 4 years art college. It's so nice of you to share the detailed techniques how you pain. Thank you.
Fantastic teacher and artist. Your tutorials are amazing and unbelievably, free!! ❤
Just a note to anyone who is buying Watercolour paints. White Nights (Russian) or Kuretake Gansai Tambi (Japanese Watercolour). While really good quality, these are opaque watercolour's unlike Winsor & Newton and Daler Rowney (Western watercolours). Please be aware of the difference. Western are traditional, transparent watercolour paints. Eastern - More opaque (non transparent), almost like diluted acrylic paints. It makes a big difference in terms of what your learning to achieve from the likes of Oliver.
So true about Kuretake. It is my 1st w/c set. Was getting frustrated as I could not achieve many techniques. Discovered that it is not designed to be mixed that is why there are so many colours. And as it is resin based it doesn't run and merge as well as Western style w/c.
Oliver, Your tutorlials have blown me away! I'm 86 and just getting around to watercolor art. After enjoying some of your tutorials, I'm convinced I can do it. I live in the Shenandoah Valley of Virginia and love the trees here - all four seasons! Now I am inspired to TRY to represent them in WC. I lived in the deset Southwest for 50 years, and saw nothing but beauty in the desert and mountains...but the Valley is magnificent. So much to see and record! And, I'm left-handed, too! And Red/Green blind. I am, however, determined! Thank you gain. You, Sir, are a treasure!!
I am 84 and just learning! I totally agree that Oliver has the best tutorials, especially for us beginners.
You are a very good teacher. Watercolor is physics and you teach the fundamentals very very well. Thank you .
Physics - you're quite right there Murthy!
Oliver, if painting was poetry, you have been excellent at explaining what happens between the lines. Your tutorials are some of the most comprehensive ways to practice and establish the core knowledge aspiring watercolour painters need. Keep up the good work and thank you so much for everything!
I’ve been painting 4 yrs and haven’t practiced these techniques. Time to go back to square 1.
Thank you again for an excellent tutorial, Oliver. I am a grown man now, but I keep thinking I wish had a teacher like you in every subject at school :) This is really useful for me in my watercolour journey going forward. Thank you!
Just discovered you in 2024. Love your presentation, succinct and logical. Going to pick up my brushes again.
Once again I am left speechless! You are definitely the best teacher online!! I can imagine so many uses for your “two simple washes”! Sometime it would be great to learn how you plan your painting. Sometimes I look at a photo that I would like to paint and it seems overwhelming so I end up painting it in parts which I don’t think always results in a painting that is as cohesive as it could be. Thank you for everything!!
Thanks Donna - planning a painting is an important aspect of watercolour and I'll be making some content on this at some stage.
I agree with you. I have looked at so many RUclips videos for about a year and have come back to him. He explains things better than anyone else.
I too am tired of being confused, pick one teacher and stick with him (her) Like both of you I choose Tyler! I love how he explains things, he makes hard things look easy… that’s a sign of a good teacher, also I don’t feel anxious or nervous but rather calm with an attitude that hey! I can do this! He helps me to believe in myself…😊
I even didn't watch this yet, but I already want to tell how happy I am to see more of techniques!! Thank you so so so much 🌼🌞🌻💕
I am not a beginner but I thoroughly enjoyed watching this and am ready to undertake some brush and paint practice that is NOT specifically for a painting. THANKS Olly!
Thank you for reviewing glazing technique - I needed that!
Thank you for that really useful tutorial. Even I’m not a beginner I enjoyed to practice these fundamentals. And … not so easy as it seems.
Your videos are not only brilliant and so informative to watch but you're so generous with your time. Artists like you and Mark Carder (DrawMixPaint) + RUclips = The gift that keeps on giving. Sincere thanks 🙏
You're very welcome Damien - thank you
This is a great demostration of how to blend the pigments to create this atmospheric effects that are daunting for beginners.
Thank you ! From Houston Texas
I post links to your videos for my friends that paint. Excellent explanations.
Thanks for sharing - much appreciated
Great tutorial, thank you Oliver.
Once again, extremely helpful advice for a beginner like myself. Thank You so much for doing these Olly
Thank you for your videos,very helpful🙂
Just pausing at 11:41 to say this is marvelous. Back too it!
Thank you again. This was extremely helpful & I will go back and watch “controlling the wash” again. We so appreciate your time & effort to help us move along in this most challenging medium. Can’t wait for the next video😁
Not only is this content helpful, it is also relaxing to watch the colours being painted on.
Thank you Oliver....o
Once again Great tutorial!
Very helpful demontration. The landscape glazing techniques I've never seen before.
Fantastic tutorial, thank you
So excited to see a new tutorial from you Ollie! I want to be able to paint like you!
Super helpful, as always. Thanks Olly.
Thank you, this video is very helpful. I must prop my board on a bit of an angle, I can see how this will help my washes.
Really basic info and very helpful showing slowly and directly.thank you
Thanks for your good explanations and encouragement!!
Holy cow, you are a fantastic teacher and artist. It is very rare to find both in one person. Thank you so much. You have made my golden years more golden.
LOVE your technique of broken washes.Watching your videos is helping me so much in discovering water colour. I am practicing with your tutorials. Thank you so much 😊
Great wash explanation. Really helps pull everything together. I often feel like I am fumbling around with watercolour so find the clearly presented techniques encourages me to keep practicing. I'm always looking out for the next ones and replay your older tutorials over and over to get the most out of them. 😊
Thank you very much Oliver and great timing, just what I wanted to know at the right time. You make it all look very easy but your approach to breaking things down into clear simple English is much appreciated. There are many artists who share their knowledge but I have not found anyone else who is able to communicate so their experience so well. Please keep doing these ‘mini workshops’ as I am learning so much ! Thank you
Thank you Oliver for your generous explanation of skills and techniques. It encourages me to hear you say watercolour is a challenging medium, I've been close to 'throwing the towel in' a few times. I've bought a pad which I'm going to use purely for practice and try to enjoy the learning process rather than becoming frustrated by it.
Stick with it Paul - watercolour often gets the better of us, no matter how experienced we are!
Thank you Oliver, you really teach well. I understand much more about applying washes. I also found it useful seeing you mix your colours and the consistency of your paints. Thank you once again😊
Thank you Oliver. This was a great lesson for me.
Un excellent professeur, il explique les 3 techniques sur sec et sur humide . Je n'ai jamais vu cette comparaison avant . Un anglais comme on les aime. A suivre
Nice explanation. Especially liked the glaze.
Thanks a lot! This helps a lot and I will be practising this
Watched all 6 in this series, best lessons I've ever had.
I just finished a little version of a seagull with ink and wash. I should have watched this first I am going to practice y\these techniques now. A wonderful way to teach. Don’t give me food, teach me to be a farmer.
Super helpful, clear and inspiring. thank you Oliver
Wonderful wash practice for me, so clearly explained and at just the right pace. I would love to learn how to do large washes around objects without making a mess of brushmarks, so that I can do bigger paintings.
I love love your tutorials, not only for the step by step teaching and showing, but also for letting beginners know why these basic techniques are important and what effect each can help achieve. Thank you and I'll keep learning with your videos.
A very informative tutorial, Olly. I was particularly taken with the 'broken' wash as I hadn't come across that particular one before. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and skills with all of us aspiring watercolour artists.
Hi Oliver, just adventuring into water colour and finding your videos very helpful. your a great teacher thanks.
The theory and the practical execution are both extremely well explained and demonstrated . Much appreciated .Thank you ! I am excited to put this into practice, Now I understand why some of my efforts at achieving some of these were doomed from the start . Your controlling wash video goes hand in hand.
You are an extraordinary Teacher !
I find all your videos very helpful. Looking forward to your next one…I have difficulty in mixing colours, knowing which goes with what. Thank you Ollie for giving us of your time. Your teaching is very valuable.
Hi Oliver, I'm new to your tutorials and am so motivated by the gentleness and patience that you show while teaching these methods. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for walking me through these techniques!
Hello Oliver, hello everyone, first of all my thanks to Oliver. Again a very good and instructive clip. I did the exercise immediately and found out that at least the exercise ariegated wash wet on dry but also wet on wet was not as easy for me as it looks in the clip. But after many attempts to get these two variations down on paper, I finally managed it.
Wonderful tutorial!! Thank you very much
Really interesting! I've never seen anyone use washes in quite this way, but I really like it. Thanks for sharing your expertise. I can't wait to try it for myself, and I'm looking forward to seeing your book when it's published.
Thanks Oliver another calm helpful video ,you have a really lovely approach which intrinsically shows just how tricky watercolour is .I hope all RUclipsrs wanting to try this medium find your videos , I allways recommend and share your teaching with any people who ask me where to go ,which is great as there is no where else on RUclips I would feel confident to recommend Thanks again Tim .
Very kind of you Tim - much appreciated I can assure you
This is a great video for washing colors.
Thanks, Oliver. Great tutorial! Can’t wait for the next one.
Haven't seen a wash done 😢on something, the entire area, already painted. Interesting. ❤ And exciting.
Really interesting! I was watching and wondering how I wish I knew more about which colours work well together in this technique (as I often end up with mud) then wonderful next video is colours, well done, looking forward to it,
Excellent easy to understand tutorial again ... thank you
Very thank you. Your way of explaining is super👍😊
Oh, just wonderful. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this important and very well explained tutorial. Also, I absolutely love your paintings, the light, the colours, the details are amazing!😃💞💞💞
Thank you for this thorough review!
Thank you Oliver for another brilliant tutorial. So very helpful. There is always something new to learn from your tutorials. Can't wait for the next one.
Thank you for the inspirational art videos👍
Hi Oliver! I’ve just spent the last 4 years watching (copying) tutorials. If I’d only started with yours as you have shown me the essence of watercolor painting and helped me to own it for myself! Thank you, thank you!
No words except WOW!
w c is making sooo much sense to me now and your videos did it. I’ve watched about 6 of your videos and I’m connecting so many dots it is unbelievable. You break it down to the basics to the point of “I get it. I can do this.” You are like the light at the end of the tunnel.
You have such a gift of breaking things down into simple parts / steps. Love your gentleness, encouragement, willingness to share and much much more. So many w c vids entertain more than teach. Your’s are fabulous, they teach! You are a great teacher, and I thank you for that. Thank you.
Although i have been painting for a few years Im learning heaps from your videos and now will put thr techniques you taught into practice. Wish i came across your channel earlier !,
Thank you so much, Oliver. I really marvel at how generous, thoughtful, and skilled you are in sharing your knowledge and in how you’ve developed your channel. Superb!
Thank you, Oliver.
Thanks Oliver, I learn so much each time I watch your videos. Please keep them coming.
very helpful! thanks a lot!
Another great tutorial. Thank you for showing the practical application of these exercises.
Excellent ... thank you Oliver.
Excellent watercolor tutorials! I am in the very beginning stage of learning watercolor, I am very lucky to find your videos. You explained watercolor so detailed and demonstrated so clearly. I will do practices following the instructions. Thank you so much for sharing these brilliance tutorials.
Thank you so much! I ALWAYS learn so much watching your tutorials.
Was so happy to see a new tutorial. I can't wait to get started!
Thank you
I look forward to your videos, they are instructive, inspiring and a pleasure to watch.
The color wash was awesome. 😮 Not a single influencer has ever mentioned the bead at the bottom of ea. color wash. THANK YOU ❤
Really useful. Broken wash was so beautiful
like this video! Thank you, from California
Love this new series 💖. Thank you so much for sharing your experiences and knowledge
Thanks for your videos. Best demonstration of glazing I have ever seen. I always enjoy your work and profit greatly from watching your demonstrations. A real encouragement to keep on painting.
Great to hear James - thank you!
If I could give you a thumbs-up for every time I’ve watched this video and learned something new, you’d be viral by now. You are a terrific teacher, especially in your honesty and encouragement about the importance of dedication, practice and experimentation. At this point, I can take your desert landscape and “masterfully” turn it into Moses Crossing the Red Sea, but I’m learning and enjoying it! Who knows, in six months it may progress to Hannibal’s Crossing the Alps! Many, many thanks for your tutorials and encouragement. I am heading over to join your Patreon community; great teaching should be appreciated and supported!
Well described and demonstrated perfectly thank you Olly.
Love, Love, LOOOOVED this tutorial - you explain everything soooo beautifully, thanks very much.
This was great!!!! Very informative...never had anyone explain the technique of these washes as straightforward as you did. THANK YOU!!!
Brilliant , as a complete novice I really appreciate these tutorials. Thank you and have a great day
Thank you for explaining all these techniques!! I really enjoyed seeing all in one tutorial and well explained. 😊
I've watched 10 different videos demonstrating graded washes. I would have loved to see you do more than one example of each or how to do a big wash, but still it's the best video I've found so far. Well done!
Same technique really - wet-on-wet works best for larger areas and it's simply a case of mixing more paint and using the largest brush possible
By far your videos are perfect to learn the nuts and bolts of watercolor painting. If a beginner watches your videos attentively, the learning period/curve can be considerable compressed.
You highlight not just the steps & processes but provide the conceptual inputs. Why we do what we do.
Appreciate your passion & sincere efforts. Thanks.
Thank you Olly for this well explained vid on watercolour washes. I want to learn more about washes and planning the layers. Your painting of - is it Durdle Door, or similar, with the arch at the ocean - is absolutely gorgeous 😍 All of the colours in the rocks and clouds are awesome! I paused the vid to try to work out how you did the broken washes and in what order. And then I saw the harder edge on the cloud in the middle and it blew my mind! I shall definitely watch more of your work - thank you so much for this 👏😃
Great video...wonderful demonstration and explanation of why one might choose WOD vs WOW.
Brilliant tutorial. You are a wonderful teacher as well as a brilliant artist.
Thank for teaching and sharing
Awesome
👍😊
Thank you so much. I have painted as a child and I learned a lot from your demo.
You’re so encouraging ad supportive. Perfect guidance for timid beginners. Ta very much!
An excellent presentation . First class.
I just discovered your channel. I learned so much from this video. This is the best tutorial I’ve ever seen. Thank you!!!!!
