Watercolour painting. 2 Autumn scenes. Learn how with a pro.




Watercolour painting. 2 Autumn scenes. Learn how with a pro.

I have just updated this course by adding a full tutorial of me painting "An Autumn/Fall stroll" so you now have my "Bend in the river Conwy" painting and this new one to get stuck into!

In the new course I show you how to use your snaps to build into an Autumn/fall landscape.

Still using my basic 7 color palette and just 3 or 4 brushes we build up this terrific range of colors and textures.

We work slightly larger in the new course at 20 x 16 inches,see the framed piece in "course pictures"

You can ask questions if you need to in the QA

You only need 3 brushes and 6 colors,check out the free preview for tools required and.if you have not used a HAKE brush before there is a free 30 minute preview on the hake also.

With the Fall/Autumn season almost upon us I thought it would be nice to show you exactly how to paint this scene from beginning to end,I will show you in real time videos the complete process from blank page to finished piece,so I hope to see you soon.


I have been following a lot of studies of individual trees and wanted to apply these to a more loose approach. I found the tutorial engaging, though I am not overly delighted with my own result. I may revisit now I have completed the whole thing and realise the pitfalls.

Art is such a beautiful way to express yourself and as a watercolor artist for over 30 years I can not urge you enough to give painting in watercolors a try,I never get bored with the effects of the colors on my paper,I still learn new techniques in my work every time I paint something,it is such a free and easy medium and it is well worth the time and effort you may invest.


To paint a watercolor picture is to escape into your own little world where nothing else matters and all your problems and worries can be forgotten, at least for a little while.


To give your own watercolor painting as a gift could not be more rewarding,I never get bored with the expression on the face of a friend or family member when I present them with an original watercolor painting which I have painted specially for them.


The medium of watercolor, for me, is the ultimate medium because even as a complete beginner you can achieve many effects using techniques which sometimes you are taught and sometimes you learn by complete accident which we call "happy accidents",such as when one color runs into another color and creates water marks or bleached paper,this is why sometimes I sit and watch the painting paint itself in front of my very eyes.

Of course now and then it does not work out as I wanted it to but all I have lost is a little bit of paint pigment,a piece of watercolor paper and a little time so I put that piece of paper to one side and start again!


Too many people have a go at painting with watercolors and think that they have to produce a perfect painting every time and they overwork the piece,desperate to get a finished painting to hang on their wall and of course they end up with a mess,get dispirited and give up announcing that they will never be an artist and so never paint again.

I would like to show these people the hundreds of watercolor paintings that didn't work out for me because without making mistakes you can't improve.I keep all my paintings good and bad and I look at the failures quite often,in these failed paintings there is quite often a part of the painting that I really like and I try to remember which technique,which colors I used,which brush made a particular mark on the paper so I can use these same techniques in my future watercolor paintings.


If I was stranded on a desert island,my watercolor kit would be the first thing I would wish for. 

Using my original paintings I teach you step by step how to paint these 2 stunning watercolours no drawing skills needed
