About This Class

Hello!
My name is Katya. And I have been painting with watercolor for almost 5 years. During this time, I made more than 60 offline workshops. And now I want to share my knowledge with more people. I believe that everyone can draw and I want you to believe in this too!

This lesson is perfect for watercolor artists of all levels.

If you just start drawing, then you will learn the "wet on wet" technique and how to paint with clean water.

If you already paint with watercolor, you will improve knowledge of color contrast and watercolor techniques.

In addition, I will explain you how to:
- smoothly mix colors on the paper;
- use wet on wet technique;
- draw snow;
- paint with clean water;
- remove paint from a sheet.

In the end of the lesson, you will get New Year's card. Also you will get the skills that will help you in the further study of watercolor.

You can find reference photo and my paintings in the attached files.

Transcripts

1. Introduction: Hi guys, my name is Kate and I had been painting with that, the Caliph for five years. On my Instagram, you can find more watercolor tutorials and useful information about painting. This is my nickname. I will be glad if you subscribe. And today we will draw one more. Yes, Kat, we will draw a small house in the Snowy Forest and beautiful starry sky. In this tutorial, you will learn how to use wet on wet technique. How to paint starry sky. How to paint? No. How to correct the places that you don't like. How to use clean water for painting, how to use goulash for snowfall. Landscape stagnant. 2. Step 1: pencil drawing: I start to be the pencil drawing. First, I draw the horizon line. It is the border between snow and forest. Then I draw three vertical lines. These are the walls of the house. On the right, it is a nephron called the house. Now I erase the horizon line inside the house. And I draw the roof on the front of the house. I draw a triangle. Next I draw two parallel lines. They're bored is over there. I also add the thickness of the roof to the fraud anti-drug windows. These are rectangles. 3. Step 2: wet on wet technique: And now I am preparing what a colorful painting I wet colors that I will use. I will bend the sky using wet in wet technique to do these. I moistened sky with water and then I take cobalt and paint using an eith in the middle, Oh, the sky. Due to the fact that the paper is wet, the band flows easily. Now I'm Mixing indigo, violet a reach that column with this shape. I bend around the H on this guy. Notice that I leave a small whitespace between cobalt in that column. So that transition from one color to nasa meal by more smoothly. Now y tilde basically bought in different directions to allow the paint to blend smoothly and make the borders only feel more accurate with the sharp tip of the brush. 4. Step 3: snow: I turned to drawing snow. Just I read the entire space with no. Then I use bailed out column and we this light violet blue shade, I add a shared though snow. There should be very little paint on the brush so that the snow remains slide. Well, the baby's wet. I will add some glow around the house, a bent snow in yellow. In this way, I show that the light from the Windows is reflected on the snow. Now, I remove the violet column window. These are washed, them brash, dried on the napkin N'T wipe off excess color from this sheet. This is how I correct the places that I don't like now at orange and yellow to this place. Now this guy is starting to dry by the babies still wet. See, it shines in the light. This is a great moment to add a star to this guy. I sprinkling water on the paper and I get this little status. Now I'd write everything really had there I am. And I draw the roof, a draw a shadow from the snow. I also take a pale blue violet color and make a few stokes. I draw solid lines on the roof and on the front of the house. Here this snow is the darkest. 5. Step 4: house: To draw the house, I bend this sidewall in Doug Brown. I bent over the front by the ArrayList slightly lied to column. I just use more water together, the light brown under the roof band with a dark blue violet column. It is the shadow. Abandon those in orange. Inside. They mean though I remove some of the pain to create deeps. Now, I will draw the details. I use dark brown to paint borders and frames around believing in those. Sadly being those, I use brown, orange column. 6. Step 5: trees: Well therefore arrest, I use adapt Karla. It is a mixture of indigo, violet, and the brown. This gives me an almost black column, but it looks much more interesting on paper. Then the ready-made black color from a to S, that painting that 3s promulgate all. You need to brush, razor sharp tip to draw the 3s. Neat. I don't draw three symmetrically. It is better to draw branches diagonally, like a ladder. The next branch is always slightly louder than the previous one. At the bottom, all the trees are connected to each other. This will create the feeling of a dense forest. Okay? 7. Step 6: snowfall: In the last step, I use white gosh, I will draw a snowfall. Use a Bristol brush and a little water to make this snowflakes and bright and small. I just spray paint over the entire postcard. Also below you can assign the car to be the colored band. I used a golf gal pan and road Happy New Year in Russia. This is my postcard.
