How do you turn color theory into a harmonious, expressive painting?
In my previous video, I shared practical tips for creating rich color harmony. Now you can watch me apply those ideas to this colorful street scene—from the first block-in to the final brushstrokes.

Throughout the demonstration, I explain key decisions involving:
Simplifying a complex scene into strong shapes
Establishing the main values
Balancing warm and cool colors
Creating harmony across the painting
Suggesting detail with loose brushwork
Knowing when to stop

You can follow the teaching tips or simply relax and enjoy the complete painting process.
