The first 1,000 people to use the link or my code louisedemasi will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: https://skl.sh/louisedemasi04221 I always map out a plan for my watercolour paintings before I begin. I think about where my focal point will be and that is where I put most of the detail. I think about how I'm going to paint in different sections of the painting and what colours I will use. I'll often do a study or two before hand on cheaper paper to make sure the painting will work out before I commit to my expensive watercolour paper. In this video I discuss the things I thought about before I started painting and I demonstrate a few different areas of the Chicken painting.
