Todayโs a quick & FUNDAMENTAL tip about avoiding overwork. This is something Iโve been seeing more and more of in recent months, and itโs a QUICK FIX for avoiding overworking your paintings. Key takeaways: - Have a plan, know what you're going to paint (shape, value, color edges etc...) - Mix ENOUGH paint - Have the paper at an angle for flow - Work from one side to another / middle-out... Avoid "frames"! I hope you find it useful! ๐๐๐ผ - Liron Time-Stamps: 00:00 - Explanation 00:20 - Easy shape 03:37 - More complex shapes 07:06 - Using this in a large painting 08:17 - Conclusion ------- MATERIALS I OFTEN USE Paints (all Daniel Smith) Phthalo Blue (Red Shade) - https://amzn.to/2FCuEvA Ultramarine Blue - https://amzn.to/2FCvicu Nickel Azo Yellow - https://amzn.to/2HW5Ik3 Perylene Red - https://amzn.to/2HUc1Ve Quinacridone Rose Brushes Tracy Lebenzon Brushes http://www.lebenzon-paintbrushes.com/ Escoda Travel Sets: https://www.escoda.com/sets-de-viaje.html Silver Black Velvet - https://amzn.to/2JCnSJZ Raphael - https://amzn.to/2Wo71wb (multiple sizes and sellers) Princeton - https://amzn.to/2YoSHpa Paper Saunders Waterford / Arches, 300gsm, cold-press - https://amzn.to/2WrdTZU Palette Mijello Airtight 18 Wells - https://amzn.to/2IbhSoa Plein-Air Easel The BEST I've found so far for watercolor - https://amzn.to/2Ljyc6Q White Pen Uniball Signo White Gel Pen (easy to find on ebay!)
