This video was done to demonstrate some problems and solutions to the challenges in painting with watercolor. Today’s video show some ways to
1 - Work with a complicated shadow pattern
2 - Create luminosity in these shadows
3 - Give the shadows a transparency
The scene is taken from the Southend in Boston on a sunny day. In each video I will address some of the challenges with working on site as well a specific challenges in design and watercolor technique. Along the way I hope you find some challenges as well as some knowledge you can use in your watercolor painting.
You can see some more demos of my watercolors that focus on shadows below
