How to paint mountains using watercolor, that is the focus of this video. I share a simple, and quick way of creating mountains. These could form the backdrop to a wildlife subject of our choice, or they could simply be a standalone project. A bit of fun, and indeed freedom, with some leftover paint.
Make up the scene as you go along, or just have fun creating the mountains. Try varying the colours, for the mountains and the sky. However, keep in mind the effect of distance on colours, and have your palest colours furthest away. Let me know how you get on, I would love to see your finished mountain scapes.
