Fix Flat Watercolor: 3-Step Glazing Method (Ad-Free YouTube Video) (Patreon)

This is the ad-free version of my latest YouTube video, where we tackle one of the biggest beginner pain points—flat, dull color—and fix it with a simple three-step glazing method. Using a chestnut as our main subject you’ll learn how to layer from light to dark, warm the browns, cool the shadows, and keep the glossy shine without overworking the paper.

What you’ll learn:

A clear, three-step glazing workflow (light → mid glazes → clean accents)

How to place warm vs. cool passages for believable depth

Shadow choices that stay rich (not muddy)

A real-time recording of the full composition—Chestnuts, Mushroom & Fallen Leaves—is available on Tier 1, along with a printable black-and-white outline (full scene + chestnut-only versions), and a complete materials list: https://www.patreon.com/posts/demo-chestnuts-143070804
