How can you paint better shadow colors with watercolor? How to SEE the shapes, colors and values better?
In this watercolor painting lesson I'm sharing with you my most useful advice for painting better shadows and colors. This isn't only about the technical, but also has to do with knowing yourself and what inspires you.
Alla prima and plein air, which I mention in this video - play a huge role in achieving beautiful results and your unique style.
Chapters:
00:00 - Mindset Shift - Everything is a Shadow
00:32 - Trick for Seeing Better
03:16 - Wet in Wet & Trapping the Light
05:40 - This keeps me HOOKED on Watercolor
09:54 - Sense of Light & Atmosphere
14:11 - Do I "decide" the focal point?

My name is Liron, and I’m an artist, author and creator.
My biggest passion is painting & sharing my artistic journey with others. For this reason, over the past decade or so, I have amassed a significant following of close to 500K people on the different media channels, such as YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and my own mailing lists.
I have sold hundreds of paintings, taught thousands of students and have been published in multiple magazines.
It is safe to say watercolor chose me, and not the other way around. My painting philosophy is quite simple. Most of the time I follow my intuition.
