Pen and Wash Watercolor Tutorial. Cape Spear Lighthouse by Peter Sheeler

2017-10-19 71 Dailymotion

Another Newfoundland inspired watercolor. Cape Spear Lighthouse in St Johns.\r<br>\r<br>PEN: The Uni-ball deluxe micron pen. .05 nib. These pens are extremely waterproof on my papers and can be painted over immediately.\r<br>\r<br>PAPER: \r<br>Arches 1401b Cold Press Paper for this Video.\r<br>\r<br>My papers of choice include Arches 140lb Hot press and Cold press paper and Strathmore 500Sketchbooks. All are 100% cotton rag.\r<br>\r<br>For beginners, I recommend starting with a high quality paper and experimenting with different types. As your style develops, youll get a feel for which type is best. Waiting to switch to a better quality paper later will be much like learning to paint all over again.\r<br>\r<br>MY PALETTE: All tube paints!\r<br>\r<br>Winsor newton- Yellow Ochre, Sepia, Burnt Sienna, Winsor Red, Davys Gray, Ultramarine, Sap Green. \r<br>DaVinci - Phthalo Blue, Quinachridone Fuchsia, Cadmium Yellow Lemon, Cadmium Yellow Deep.\r<br>\r<br>A note on Davys Gray: I rarely use this pigment straight and when using it I usually mix it with each colour used.\r<br>\r<br>PAINT PALETTE:\r<br>\r<br>The palette is the mixing tray from a Koi Watercolour travel set. The colours are set up so the ones I mix together most often are close together.\r<br>\r<br>BRUSH: \r<br>A Polar Flo 1/2 inch flat brush is my current favorite. The bristle were originally white but have become stained. \r<br>I often use inexpensive brushes because several of my techniques are quite abusive.\r<br>\r<br>Whenever the brush disappears from the screen it is either being wiped off or rinsed.\r<br>\r<br>REFERENCE IDEAS: come from my imagination/memory, my own photos or by painting on location.\r<br>\r<br>Music by Jason Shaw,
