Feeling stuck or unsure how to paint a scene?
In this video, I’ll show you one simple trick that can instantly bring clarity: turning your reference photo black and white (or even posterizing it) to reveal the big shapes and values that truly matter.
This small shift will help you see your subject in a whole new way that is focused on structure and patterns.
And it'll hopefully give you confidence and courage to paint, even when everything feels messy or unclear.
Perfect for watercolor beginners and experienced artists..
Chapters:
00:00 - The One Solution If You're Struggling...
00:09 - How to Edit the Photo
01:07 - Starting the Painting
02:49 - Edges Composition!
07:14 - Starting to Paint Darker
16:34 - Simple Glazing Technique
18:01 - Foreground Tiles Details
23:45 - Small Details With the Rigger Brush
