The best way to paint light in watercolor is to paint dark around it. In this demonstration I capture the bright evening light in this Autumn scene. I show you step-by-step how to paint this scene from the first wash to the end.
Paint along with me!

    It was very helpful to watch you mix and paint. TY for telling us your thoughts and naming each paint. That last layer of dark on the bottom did an amazing amount to make the sun glow. The final painting has a wonderful "heading home for dinner and family time" feel to it.

    Adding that last glaze in the foreground really showed confidence and made a good painting better. I love that you took an ordinary subject and turned it into a work of art. Great video, very concise and just slow and detailed enough to be of great help to a novice. Thank you.

    Hi Matt, as always, a great demo. I particularly liked the sky. I'm going to copy that! as for other videos, I would love to see a video about the uses of lavender. It is not a colour I use but it seems to have multiple uses. Could you explore your mixes using this colour?

    Lavender intrigues me too and it would be really interesting to see how it works with different colour mixes.

    Thank you Matthew! I’m finally starting to get the point that I needn’t be a slave to laboriously trying to copy the details of a reference. Your color mixes were unexpected - but they worked, I need to try mine on a scrap. No tape! Does wetting the back sufficiently glue paper to board to stop buckling? Is your board slightly tilted? Rewatching and jotting down mixes. Thanks for not editing out wiping out the bad puddle .

    I just found your channel. I am loving learning in real time. I see you have several great brushes. Can you detail what these are specifically. I have a couple of Perlas, bought an 16 aquario, but what is the Chinese one and the one with dark handle?

    Adding commentary….what are you using for pencil, where did you get the small natural sponge and more fully explain the why for wetting the paper before starting. I assume the pencil work first?

    I was wondering if you own the copyright on all your reference photos? Your photos are all so good. Are you a photographer? If so, what camera do you use? I'm assuming its a SLR, digital and not just your cell phone.

    How do you keep your paper flat after it dries? I like painting with the back and front of the paper wet but it bends after drying and painting further is difficult. I am using 100% cotton, 300gr paper.

    Do you tape your paper, or do you use a 640 that doesn't need it?
