This is a video done as a supplement to a watercolor class taught by Gary Tucker in Boston. This is the first of a series of 8 lessons that will use various scenes of Paris as a motif. The lessons will focus on design , in particular visualizing a center of interest and using this as a means to compose the painting. Technically we will be focusing on graded washes in all sorts of applications. In this exercise you will notice how they work to create luminosity in the final painting.
This painting utilizes and underpainting of yellow ochre with smaller amounts of cad red and cobalt blue. The darker washes are created by various mixtures of Burnt sienna and ultramarine blue.
