Painting Watercolors From Photographs The Easy Way
Painting Watercolors From Photographs The Easy Way
My Class is designed to help you turn your uninspiring photographs into paintings to be proud of. I will demonstrate techniques that help you plan your painting to get maximum light and colour from dull photographs. This workshop is for beginners and intermediate painters, I encourage you to ask questions at any time throughout the lesson to enable you to get the most from this course.
Together we will produce a value sketch which will help you plot the shadows and create the values necessary to establish the feeling light in your work.
We then move onto the painting itself. A reference image is provided as a download for you to work from. We then paint step by step breaking the painting down into eight parts. This enables you to grasp every stage before moving onto the next lesson. If you are unable to understand any part of the instruction I encourage you to contact me. This gives me the opportunity to help you and clarify parts of the painting you may find challenging.
