In The Studio: Rocks, Surf Demonstration

Daily Demonstrations

This watercolor demonstration is all about the energy of the brush and the preserving of white paper to create a very exciting painting of surf as it runs past rocks.  The color palette is Cobalt, and Cerulean Blue, and New Gamboge with the browns being a combination of Burnt Sienna, Ultramarine Blue and Alizirin Crimson.  Try not to over mix the colors on the palette and let them have some individual identity on the paper.  I scrape the rocks with plastic card and knife.  Think big: big shapes, big brush marks, and big value contrasts.2 demos line rocks and surf_02872 demos line rocks and surf_02932 demos line rocks and surf_03112 demos line rocks and surf_0313
