Painting The Light Part 1

Part 1 is all about getting the detail right, working step by step for a marvelous still life filled with antique items for putting baby to bed.

You'll paint the blue items first, an antique lamp, baby quilt and toy.

Next, you'll paint the brown items, the lamp and the basket.

When you work step by step, light layer, then medium layer, then dark, watercolor detail is very doable.

This lesson contains two outline pages - an 8 x 10 and a larger outline page that can be printer in two sheets and combined.

Happy Painting!

Hi, I'm Deb Watson.

My story is simple. I loved creating art from childhood, but was discouraged from pursuing art by my parents. So, I became a nurse, but kept painting.

I knew nothing about art, but taught myself over time and became a very successful artist, with hundreds of awards. Although my art and how to paint techniques are well known (in over a dozen books and online), I'm just a down to earth person.

I've always enjoyed teaching others how to paint with watercolor - sharing the joy!

Join me in your own personal journey into painting. My online lessons and zoom classes will teach you how to see and paint like an artist. No matter what your favorite subject is, you'll find it here - or email me your suggestions and I'll include a class in the future.

Happy Painting.
