- As I mentioned in the last video I love painting flamingoes!...but I love painting flying flamingos even more. So I hope you enjoy this one. Also an attempt to keep these as "quick" watercolours!!
The colours for this painting were all from Holbein:
Pyrole Red (orangey red)
Quinacridone Magenta (cool pinky red)
Pthalo Blue (very strong, very greeny blue)
New Gamboge Yellow (slightly cool, similar to lemon yellow)
It was painted on Winsor & Newton Professional Watercolour paper (gummed block) with a size 14 & size 8 synthetic round brush.

In this series we will be looking at using minimal equipment to create quick & simple, 10 - 20 minute, watercolour paintings of birds. The emphasis will be on lots of movement, character and letting the beautiful medium of watercolour just do it's thing! With just the odd hit of detail. These are going to be fun and expressive watercolours, full of life...and hopefully for everyone from total beginner to seasoned watercolourist.
As the series goes on I will be building on the these approaches, principles and tips, so please consider subscribing if this is your thing.

I totally like your enthusiastic way of teaching and I am learning a lot from these video’s. A big thank you!

Love the ideas of quick flicks of the brush and the broken strokes (dry brush effects). I also am enjoying the format of these videos with the quick tips inserted. I am definitely going to practice those strokes. Thanks for sharing with us!
Yes these dry brush marks can be so useful, a feeling of liveliness and a slightly different texture (especially i contrast to smoother wet into wet areas)...my pleasure, thank you for a lovely comment!!:)
