Haha true! 😂

The opaque blue in the shadows really makes it.

Thank you! 😊 I’ll probably experiment with this approach more and more

Loved the blue in the rock face

I love the soft horizon, the gouache highlights, the cliff - it's all fantastic! I am attracted to the stark beauty of the desert, and this inspires me to keep trying to improve my desert paintings. Thank You!!

Thank you! 😁 Very happy to hear!

I don't really SEE the nuances of this scene until I watch you paint it! (I've never been to the desert; perhaps that's part of it!)

WOW, Liron! I absoutely love this painting and your technique.

I really enjoyed watching this video not only because it deals about the subject that I like most but also because it was very informative. Thanks for your tips on the use of gouache for the lights. It was very useful. Keep up the good work

Love your commentary style-and yes, that horizon was amazing

Thanks Liron. Interesting stuff you did with the opaques at the end, which reminded me of my big discovery of 2023. It's a way to add texture to walls, tree trunks, metal posts, anything really. I get some titanium white watercolour (PW6 and opaque, just like the gauche you were using). Mix it up pretty watery, paint a stripe along the edge of the shape I'm interested in, paint water over the rest of the shape and encourage a bit of bleeding, then dab off all the paint with kitchen paper, not too quickly but not too late. Get the timing right and the whole shape gets an amazing texture. Discovered by accident like all good watercolour techniques. Wondering now whether I should try out a variation of this but with some colour mixed into the white.

Interesting!! Would love to see a video demonstrating this 😁 I screenshot the comment, may give it a try!

Now that I've learned the term 'high key' so well explained, I think it was helpful to comment on brightness & saturation, that darkest is not brightest and that each color hue has a unit sweet spot for it's brightness.

Thank you for letting me know! Happy these concepts were easy enough to understand ☺️🙏🏼🙏🏼

Love the cliff 😮

Hello Liron, I hope you are safe! Yes regarding color, understanding the value is the challenge not so much the actual Hue. Thank you for responding and be well.

Liron...for me this is your best landscape 👌👌👌👌

@@LironYan I gave it a try (four times), and unsurprisingly it was not super successful, haha. It's almost like new subjects require practice :P

Really beautiful 👍👏👏👏

Hey Liron, I think the reason people ask what color is it is sometimes a value issue not a hue issue, at least with me:)

Do you mean some colors are naturally darker so easier to use? So knowing the color helps also in achieving the correct value? Let me know, and thank you for watching 🙏🙏♥

Excellent work Liron. Saw the importance of multiple layers ( taking care of how wet the paper is) and the lovely effect of the jaune brillant. I must try it as an alternative to white gouache.

Haha yes they’re practically the same 😂😂 Thank you Denise! 🙏🏼

i dunno Liron... you inverted the chroma on the left side of the picture, the yellows are close to the observer, the red/orange hue is far away from the camera. You have some bright yellow and naples yellow and then you start transitioning to ochre with a bright red hue and at the end there is red/orange tones in the farthest part of the land BUT the big rock formation on the right side is outstanding. well done !

@@LironYan i think you are just used to darker values near the PoV so you inverted the colours. I would have used the darker tones at the horizon as a pretext to use some light violet or light purple to calm down the red/maroon hues of the darker tones of the land. Anyways... the focal point on the right was gorgeous !

Love your works..can you please tell me which escort brushes do you use ?

I usually sign with a rigger brush, but sometimes it's more practical to use the white gel pen (if the area I want to sign is darker)

There's a realistic painting of half a hard boiled egg on the palette.
