paint PEOPLE in WATERCOLOURS

Learn to paint people in watercolour in this tutorial!
There's some great tips to painting people and figures in watercolour, in particular I want to show you how to inject character, movement and gesture into your figures.
Plus I show you how to consider composing a painting to best bring out the focal point.

Thank you. I’m a huge fan of your work with birds in particular but it was quite helpful to see the application of “simple but accurate shapes” to a human figure!

Thanks for a great quick video on figures. This subject makes me nervous but I will get there. I am learning lots, though. I was able to recognise the shadow shapes and the light shapes as I studied the photo before you outlined them, so I'm pretty pleased with myself. Thank you for these great tutorials and videos and for sharing your talent and beautiful art and pointing us all in the right direction.
