How to Paint a Watercolor Apple 🍎 TWO Different Ways | One Subject Two Styles

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

Today we will be painting a single apple subject in two different styles with watercolor! One, using a dry brushing technique, with plenty of hard edges and thin overlapping layers; and the other, using wet on wet, rendered with softer boundaries and fewer layers. This is an easy enough exercise for beginners to follow along - perfect for practicing water and brush control, and exploring the range of effects you can achieve by simply varying your techniques.

    If you scrape to give highlight hard edges, the wet/wet apple will look shiny

    Excellent tutorial! The dry looks so textured and almost cubist

    The dry brushed one is my favorite. It looks very painterly and has such a beautiful punch to it. Just found your channel and loved the first video so I subscribed!

    @@boxesofsheep It really is and I think part of the reason is because the values are better.

    It has a nice glow from all the glaze layers, doesn’t it?🙂

    Beautiful! I have been experimenting with mixing different shades of the same color lately, like you did here with the reds.

    I thought you were a bit tough on yourself regarding the wet-in-wet version, I loved it. The shadow bleed was a game changer. Lovely, informative piece,again. Around this neck of the woods people were burned at the stake for doing this kind of stuff (and, of course, if they owned a black cat!). If you're ever in this part of 'leafy England' I reckon they'd probably cut you some slack... don't bring the cat, though. 😉

    Thank you! Nothing against the colour, which I love, but it can be irritating to the skin sometimes.
