Autumn Watercolors for Very Beginners (Skillshare)

Offered by Skillshare,
Autumn Watercolors for Very Beginners (Skillshare)

Welcome! In this class we are going to create 4 super simple autumn-themed watercolor illustrations: a leaf, a pear, an apple and an autumn tree. The class is ideal for very beginners - we are going to use easy techniques - we are going to bleed colors into a simple wash and make deeper colors/shadows/details in a second layer.

We are going to use only 4 colors: cadmium yellow, sap green, alzarine crimson and dark brown. There are no complicated drawings, only simple shapes. I will show you how to paint different objects with basically the same painting technique by only changing the basic shape and some colors.The autumn tree project will teach you to loosen up from defined shapes.
As for the project, post at least one finished painting that you have created following a tutorial from the class.
