Great - thanks Colin. I'll get onto that tomorrow. The "wind-down" at the end was useful, hearing you talk about the steps you have taken and why. Enjoying the steady away pace. Thanks martin
Really like it! I haven't done any urban sketching pieces in a while and makes me want to get back into it. I would have been tempted to add a little bit of that nice lavender colour over on the left of the road as there's that little bit of reflected light and it might have balanced that colour out on the page 😏 but I'm a risk taker
Thanks for this series. I started out with straight up watercolor and then found line and wash and really resonate with that medium. This series points out how I've simplified my use of watercolor in the line and wash and there are a lot of good textures watercolor techniques that add to the interest of a painting that I'm ignoring.
Colin, permita-me fazer uma pergunta: Para fazer um desenho (maravilhoso) que você fez neste vídeo, tem que treinar muita perspectiva, certo? Muito obrigada!🌷🇧🇷
Hi Colin, thankyou for this series, I'm so guilty of trying to finish a water colour in one sitting, thinking about it I have no idea why, my palette has got so messy over time and I have colours bleeding into each other to the extent of producing messy muddy colours, your laid back and relaxed way of painting water colour is definitely something I'm going to give a try, I'm going to start a fresh with a nice clean palette and practice layering and patience, Thankyou.
Patience, right, I'll try. One of your earlier comments "accept your own hand" went down well! Know the street and will give the pavers a closer look when over next. Impressed with the many tones you mix, albeit practically a colourless street on the photo that I would skip drawing, you master to depict it well. That's a great spot to start the video, next to the coffee can, different background (the crossing appears not cheerful behind your happy and explanatory self at times). Looking forward to the next episode, see what more depth or detail you would opt for. best regards, Inge, The Netherlands.
@@Woodwardswatercolours I think Inga means the crucifixion picture on the wall behind your workspace. Uplifting reminder to some, bit of a downer for others.
I see it's called the crucifixion, as Judy explains, no offense meant but not a cheerful sight. Since you now sat down at the coffee pot, thought I'd bring it up, would not have done otherwise, but has been on my mind for some time. Other than that, nice studio and enjoy your videos.
This is great. Showing one doesn’t have to complete a painting in one day.
I was scrolling through your videos to find a couple to link to someone... and obviously had to stop on this one to say hello to doggo!
Very pretty! I still need to learn patience to let a layer dry before moving on.

You have done such a great job of showing layering techniques through layer #2. Very nice!
Lovely, Colin. Such a simple scene on the surface, and yet so much life in it.
Ah thank you!

Glad to hear it! You’re very welcome
Very good videos to learn from! Thank you so much for sharing with us!
My pleasure!

Brilliant Neil! It’s definitely the way to go!

Thanks for that. Can I ask what do you mean ‘the crossing’?
Glad you’re enjoying the series
