Relax with the mellow Watercolor Workshop videos

Master value control in watercolor using burnt sienna and evolving washes with water. Use the butcher pan edge to remove water, create contrast on white paper with a complementary blue.

Learn to create a two-tone watercolor sunset with complementary blues and sienna, using wet-on-wet skies, controlled washes, and dry brush textures.

Preserve watercolor spontaneity by blocking, drying, and lifting color; raise subtle details with brush-end scratching to create weeds, grooves in paper, and an illusion of space with horizon lines.

Develop control of water and dry brush techniques to render sky, mountains, and reflective water with a sparkling white line, using blue and pink tones on white paper.

Learn to use Sumi and Sewanee brushes for watercolor detailing, control water and stroke placement, and care for brushes to prevent mold by air-drying on a placemat.

Begin watercolor with light sketches, use a soft ebony pencil and a flexible eraser to protect the paper, avoid digging, and enjoy the painting process.
