SUMMARY

Join Catherine Beale in this step-by-step workshop to form your own impressionistic watercolour of a sun setting over the horizon as she introduces you to her “gravity painting” techniques using one of her paintings as inspiration.


You will create a useful pencil underdrawing to free up the painting process and watch the way pooling watercolours behave on the page. Experiment as Catherine helps you use more water and fewer brushstrokes. She will teach you how to drop paint into water and merge free-running colours in defined areas bounded by dry paper. You will be shown how, by taking paint straight from the tube, you can create deep, shadowed tones and how to lift paint off for subtle highlights before considering different ways to review your work with fresh eyes you will build up realistic tree detail using a fine / rigger brush.
