Learn how to make a watercolor painting like Georgia O'Keeffe, Paul Cézanne, and other artists in this new episode of our tutorial series IN THE STUDIO. Artist Jia Sung teaches two different techniques: "wet on wet" for more improvisational work and a drier approach for still life painting and observational work. See how she uses tube and pan paints, different types of brushes, and looks at works in MoMA's collection for inspiration.

Works referenced:
Georgia O'Keeffe. "Evening Star No. III." 1917
Georgia O'Keeffe. "Train at Night in the Desert." 1916
Romare Bearden. "Untitled (Brenda)." 1984
