How to paint a watercolor painting

By Donna Weber

Naturally, you'll start with the white of the paper. From there, I take a color I'll be

using in the painting and begin to draw my image. In this instance, I'm using a

mat board that's been coated with gesso. I like this surface because the

watercolor is so easily erased if a mistake is made. At this point, I've chosen to do

a complimentary color scheme, yellow and blue.

Watercolor - No Damage Highlights by Vera Dennen

By Vera Dennen

As an established artist I receive many questions from

beginning or intermediate watercolorists who have become

frustrated by one step or another. How to deal with a large wash, when and where

to add shadows, how to simulate texture such as tree bark, and many more

undertakings which can prove daunting to solve on ones own.

Watercolor Painting Demonstration - "Belcanto Tulip"

By Michele Frantz

I do a lot of these small "flower portraits" with dark, blue/green backgrounds. This

is an approach I picked up from Virginia artist Joe Phillips. I use it a little

differently than Joe, but it's been pretty successful for me so far. I don't know why

I make so many of the images square! -- they just seem to work better that way.

Contemplation

By Rich Bloechl

When I began to develop ideas for this painting, I began with an image I had

taken while in the Army, stationed in Vietnam. I was walking down a street in Can

Tho, were I was stationed, and I came upon an old gentleman squatting on the

corner. I pulled out my trusty Kodak Hawkeye camera and took a picture. I carried

a camera with me just about everywhere I went...

Denver. The last time I passed by, the late-day sun was casting some interesting

shadows on the building so I snapped this picture. It's a low-resolution digital

photo shot with an inexpensive Largan Chameleon camera. The Chameleon is very

small and therefore quite handy to carry around all the time.

Step by step watercolor instructions

By Kim Loydall and Julie Hirons

Watercolour paints are bought in the form of blocks known as pans and half-pans,

or in tubes. Wash pans are for mixing paint, and are built in to boxed sets, as

illustrated on the right. Wash pans can be improvised from any small shallow

container...

Wonderful site with lots of tips and demonstrations with watercolor

By Tony van Hasselt

In the early stage of our painting explorations, we have a tendency to treat each

surface and each edge in the same way. We're still filling in and staying between

the lines, as we learned to do in our childhood coloring books...

Painting with watercolour

By Billy Campbell B.A. (hons) U.W.S.

Even before I start the drawing for a picture it is important to plan from which

side I want the light to come in this case it will be from left to right. Stage one in

any painting is the drawing, I use a 2b pencil to lightly do the sketch. I work out

at this stage what the major point of interest is going to be (in this case it will be

Lily Pond

by Ronnie Cramer

I recently splurged and got a 24-pan set of Schmincke Horadam watercolors,

which I used for this painting. My friend Victoria has a beautiful lily pond outside

her home in North Carolina. This drawing of it was done with a 6B Mars

Lumograph pencil.
