In this demo I will be covering...
1) Choice of Subject. What makes a good watercolor subject. Then looking at my photograph, I cover key things to consider like cropping the scene, and what to include or exclude.
2) Materials I use such as the paper. I will also cover the paints I use and the palette, plus how I hold the different brushes for different techniques.
3) Doing the outline sketch as the first step. How to draw the main shapes of the cottages and my main shadows.
4) Doing the sky and the first wash of the background and then the foreground.
5) Shadows and details of things like the trees and windows on the buildings.
6) Watch out for the 'end summary where I show photo and painting together.
