NEGATIVE PAINTING 🧡 Essential Technique to Improve your Watercolors!

#watercolortechnique #negativepainting #watercolortutorial In this video I will show you how I painted these nasturtium flowers step-by-step, and walk you through detailed examples of how negative painting technique can enhance your watercolor work and allow you to create beautiful effects, including: 1. Adding beautiful backgrounds to your watercolor images, with lots of visual interest. 2. Creating smooth edges, without paint “leaking” from one object to another. 3. Painting the finest details without having to use messy masking fluid - including flower stamens and leaf veins. 4. Creating a better sense of of light by adjusting the “temperature” of your watercolors across large areas of paper (from warm to cold colors and back) 5. Creating better contrast by modifying values (light/dark) 🎨 MY REAL-TIME ART CLASSES: Enjoy my in-depth watercolor classes on SkillShare (the link will give you 14 days of FREE access): www.skillshare.com/r/profile/Anna-Bucciarelli/1344… 🌸 REFERENCE PHOTO: unsplash.com/photos/Z1Z2ryY3Zkc 🎥 VIDEOS MENTIONED: HOW TO PAINT WATERCOLOR BACKGROUNDS:    • HOW TO PAINT WATERCOLOR BACKGROUNDS 🎨...   HOW TO PAINT WHITE OBJECTS (ROSE):    • HOW TO PAINT WHITE FLOWERS ON WHITE P...   HOW TO PAINT YELLOW OBJECTS (DAFFODIL):    • How to Paint Yellow Flowers 🌼 Waterco...   🎨 SUPPLIES I USED: GLOVE: Protective Glove from Laughing Paw: amzn.to/2LLqcyC PAPER: Arches Cold Pressed: amzn.to/2PTCian MEEDEN 12 Well Round Porcelain Artist Paint Palette: amzn.to/2L0wqMw BRUSH: Several sable and synthetic brushes in sizes ranging from #00 to #8 🎨 PIGMENTS*: - DS Quinacridone Coral: amzn.to/2SrVbQK - DS Pyrrole Orange: amzn.to/2JRJ1gq - DS Quinacridone Burned Orange: amzn.to/33rwDyx - DS Hansa Yellow Deep: amzn.to/2XW4kav - DS Perylene Green: - DS Phthalo Yellow Green: amzn.to/2Yd8ZEk - DS Olive Green: amzn.to/2MU5ig7 - DS Hookers Green: amzn.to/2qT7yMb - DS Perylene Maroon: amzn.to/32CLUdj - Winsor & Newton Aqua Green - QOR Dioxazine Purple: amzn.to/2YOR2wX - QOR Indanthrone Blue: amzn.to/3dUrIcM Please note, your don’t need all of these, I just like to use a variety and mix on paper.
