Painting SIMPLE Watercolour Figures - Semi-Abstract People, Crowds, Humans

Drawing, sketching and painting people can be a little scary. Especially in watercolour, where everything you do feels 'permanent', and controlling the water can make it hard to add little details or undo mistakes.
BUT, I'm here to persuade you that painting people in watercolour can be fun and simple.
I try to let go of my perfectionism, in all my sketching and painting, but especially with people, and watercolour figures.
It's amazing how simple a figure can be, and how easy it can be to sketch them, yet they remain super effective as a piece of art, or within a wider painting.
In this little tutorial I'll talk you through my processes for using loose colours, adding little details, thinking about whether proportions are important, and fundamentally, producing some quick, effective watercolour people!
