Watercolor Flower Practice - Drawing, Painting and Line and Wash

Описание: Hi everyone, in this video I am practicing how to paint/draw flowers. I start the video by creating some quick sketches, then I create a line and wash piece, two loose flower paintings and a final painting using a drawing.

I am using flowers that I purchased as my live reference so I do not have reference images to share. This video is meant to be more inspirational than a step-by-step tutorial.

Materials

Arches coldpress paper * Full disclaimer, I am a brand ambassador for Arches Papers and am occasionally gifted paper. Some paper in this video MAY be gifted.

Paints
I use paints by the brand Daniel Smith. I do not have the entire color list as I didn't keep track of what I used

Brushes
I like using brushes by the brand Princeton

Pens
I recommend Micron pens for line and wash pieces, I used some other brand for this piece but they aren't my favorite

Inspiration

The pen and wash style practice is loosely inspired by the book Ink & Wash Florals by Camilla Damsbo Brix
The loose watercolor style practice is loosely inspired by the book, Botanical Watercolor Painting for Beginners: A Step-by-Step Guide to Create Beautiful Floral Artwork by Cara Rosalie Olson
