Description
Welcome! In this course, we'll be painting an urban landscape of Venice (St Mark's Square) in watercolour. Learning how to capture urban landscapes in a quick, fun, and loose manner is an essential skill that every artist should learn to master. Watercolour is the perfect medium that allows you to produce spontaneous and expressive paintings on the go. Urban landscapes can be confusing to paint. With so much going on, and an overload of detail, we can often get lost in our painting. In this course, I'll show you how to paint any urban landscape easily by using layering techniques and understanding light and shadow.Planning is crucial. I'll show you how to simplify buildings, figures, and shadows into basic shapes. Getting those large components in accurately beforehand is essential for your painting to make sense.In this course you'll learn the following:-How to paint simple paintings of any urban landscape in watercolour-How to sketch and plan your urban landscape painting in pencil before you start painting-How and when to use wet-in-wet watercolour techniques to paint clouds, skies, land-How to add people into your landscape in a natural and simple way-How to layer effectively to add extra details-How to combine layers to create depth naturally-How to paint simple shadows and identify or choose a light source in your paintingSo join me in this course!
