Artist Network and David & Charles Publishing* invite you to watch master artist Johannes Vloothius complete a watercolor seascape demonstration based on the reference photo.
Johannes always says, “Painting watercolor is like chess. You need to foresee the next few steps because the medium does not forgive.”
This is why a clear, step-by-step approach to watercolor is vital. In this demo, you will follow live as Johannes breaks down the sequence for painting a convincing cloudy sky within a seascape setting. During the session, Johannes will introduce his new step-by-step watercolor book, Watercolor Artist's Index of the Natural Landscape: A Field Trip of Features and How to Paint Them, which demonstrates a wide range of landscape elements as you will see in this demo.
