NEGATIVE PAINTING MADE EASY - Painting flowers On A Wash

In this video it's all about capturing the flower shapes with my favorite technique...negative painting! If you love negative painting you'll find ideas as to how you can add it to your artwork. If you're new to negative painting then let me introduce you to an essential tool to help you grow as a watercolorist.
