Sky Studies - Documenting my Learning - Suitable for beginners (Patreon)
Content
Hi everyone,
Here is my sky studies video. Once a month I spend a day trying to teach myself how to paint landscapes in watercolour. It's not something I've ever tried before so it's all new to me. I mentioned that I would document my learning as I went so those patrons who have never tried painting landscapes can learn along with me. Many of you are more likely more accomplished in this area so if you have any tips I'm all ears.
Basically what I do is get out my watercolour books and read a little and then I start practicing on my cheaper paper. When I feel more confident I try painting small studies on my more expensive paper.
Last month I painted my first trees and this month I painted some skies for the first time. The tree video is here: https://www.patreon.com/posts/34405468
At the moment I'd be apprehensive to paint on larger paper so a lot more practice is needed first. I will keep trying and I'll share what I'm learning with you.
I have attached a photo of the four sky studies I painted and a little landscape I played with. There is no supplies list or line drawings because this isn't a normal tutorial.
I hope you enjoy following.
