About How to Paint a Beautiful English Landscape in Watercolour
When I first started using Watercolour in 1980 I was inspired to copy the great artists such as Constable, _Quinton_ and others. I couldn’t get on with oil or acrylic so turned my hand at watercolour. As I had never gone to art school I just went with my instincts and
had
fun!
Because I tried to copy the great artists, the techniques I developed were
_completely unique_
and unlike
any
other watercolour pictures I saw. I remained self taught, learnt as I went along and what you’ll see in this course is a result of years of learning through mistakes and finding
what worked.
You’ll also see techniques
never before attempted with watercolour
_(as far as I know)_. My watercolour pictures, even though they’re “impressionistic”, have a sense of
realism
about them. In this course I’ll give you an outline drawing so that you can print this straight to watercolour paper or trace it using a carbon. I’ll also show you the materials I use in my watercolour work. Then we’ll get started with the paintings which are split into “easy to digest” parts. With this course you will learn to paint this landscape of Aylesford in Kent - the "Garden of England" . In this course you'll learn to paint a sky, trees, foliage, water, buildings and more! I hope you enjoy learning my watercolour techniques, once you are finished, please do share your artwork via the Q & A section or message us using Udemy's messaging tools.
