Hello, everyone!
Today, let me share with you how to paint a misty landscape using watercolors.
When creating a work that requires a lot of water, I usually use gummed tapes to secure the watercolor paper to prevent it from expanding and warping after absorbing water. However, this time, I'm using regular tape.
I'll start with the base color. Using a flat brush, I'll apply a light color to the background.
Dilute Phthalo green, Sepia brown, and Prussian blue to create a gray tone for the background.
Next, I'll use more pigment to paint the trees. I'll start with a size 10 brush to create the main shapes of the trees and then use a smaller brush to add finer branches.
Finally, I'll add flying birds as decoration. I hope you like it. Thank you for watching! :)
