Watercolor tutorial 🎨 Negative painting technique ☘️

Third video in Negative painting technique series in Watercolors and this time I'm painting some green leaves, flowers and foliage. I'll walk you through the whole process, from working with reference photo, sketching and painting. What makes this video from the others is that this time I'm using masking fluid for some parts and will share tips and trick for working with this medium.
Please give it a 👍 if you enjoyed watching to support my channel.
Materials:
Paper:
100% cotton paper, cold pressed, fine grain, 300 gsm thick (recommend using a cotton paper since this technique requires multiple layers of paint and cotton paper)
Brushes:
- Flat brush: Winsor & Newton, Cotman, One stroke 25 mm/1 (large brush for covering the page with clean water)
- Round brush: LaVanche 3325 series, size 16,
- Round brush: Da Vinci (Petit gris mix) size 6 and 4
- Rigger brush: Da Vinci (Cosmotop spin) size 1
- A small craft brush (I'm using a local brand size 5) for masking fluid. OBS! Don't use a fancy brush for masking fluid, it's easy to damage it.
Maskin fluid from Winsor & Newton
Terpentine from Winsor & Newton for cleaning the brush after using masking fluid
Paint:
- Gold paint from Rosa (800 Gold)
- Lemon yellow from Schmincke
- May green from Schmicke
- Spring green from Daniel Smith
- Prussian green from Daniel smith
- Prussian blue from Daniel smith
- Indigo from Rosa
OBS! You don't need to use these specific brands. Also different brands name their colors differently.

Gorgeous. Such depth. I think negative painting probably helps with drawing skills, too, by learning to see the spaces between objects.

Thank you 😊 Think so too. It sort of makes you focus on layers and contrast which adds depth

My first time visiting your channel, Negin. *EXCELLENT* tutorial all around; thank you. You've inspired me to give your lovely painting a go. Two things I'll do differently: 1) much less emphasis on veins and 2) more variety/temperature of greens, especially on the foreground leaves. Liked, subscribed, notifications on & will share.

Regarding cleaning brush filled with masking fluid: rather than using turpentine *AFTER* using masking fluid, try rubbing wet bristles with dish soap *BEFORE* putting the brush into the masking fluid. That way, the brush can simply be rinsed with water rather than a strong chemical.

@lynnthomas8457 10 ай бұрын

I just started with water color, so pardon the dumb question, but HOW do you get your paint so flowey and yet so saturated? I can only seem to get it so concentrated it doesnt move, or so diluted the saturation and tone is really light and not very controlable.

@Neginz-Art 10 ай бұрын

Not dumb at all. Watercolor is known to be the hardest medium to work with and water control is something that takes time and patience. But I suggest to always wet your pallet with some water, not too much. A water spray bottle is the best. Let it sit for like a minute or two before you start painting to get the best consistency.

@Neginz-Art Жыл бұрын

Thanks 😊 In painting / drawing theory the area outside or in between shapes is called negative space. And in this technique we keep painting and adding layers to the negative space hence why it’s called Negative painting.
