Easy Autumn Landscape Painting: Watercolor Tutorial

[@debbiemartin9005]

I love the foggy look of the mountains. ❤

[@JackiePeacock]

Thanks, Debbie! Fog is everything lol (to me, anyway).

[@haydeeDe]

REALLY like the other colors in there. Love the red orange, the road, the mountains, and of course te pines. Love the different variety in this painting.

[@JackiePeacock]

definitely trying to include more colors. The oranges have been fun to play with. I plan on showing more autumn landscapes with water. 🌲

[@haydeeDe]

@@JackiePeacock 🙏❤️❤️

[@TradIrishHarper]

That burnt orange color is so striking. I absolutely love the contrast you achieved with this painting.

[@JackiePeacock]

Thank you so much! The orange sure does have some punch.

[@TradIrishHarper]

@@JackiePeacock It’s absolutely gorgeous

[@shatteredmug]

I've just started venturing into watercolor, searching YT for tutorials (and there are several). I just LOVE your editing style, your aesthetic/workspace, your beautiful art, your voice and your guidance. Even if I don't paint anything, your videos are a delight to watch all the way through. Thank you!

[@JackiePeacock]

There certainly are plenty of videos to learn from. So many different styles and ways to painting subjects. I hope you can soak up as much knowledge as you can. And of course I’m grateful you’ve stumbled upon my channel and are enjoying the content. I did the aesthetic mainly for me because it gives me great joy, but so so glad that it connects with many others as well.

[@Jc4elayne]

I love your technique! This painting is stunning. It looks like you could just step into the picture. I will try this One for sure. Wish me luck ! ❤

[@JackiePeacock]

Thank you so much for the lovely comment and I wish you much luck on your next painting. I’m sure it’s going to be great.🌲🤍

[@mollyseaton8107]

Girl, this is a whole production. Beautiful paintings, cozy staging, calm and peaceful commentary. It's more than just watercolour and clearly, well thought out. Love the videos and please keep it up!

[@JackiePeacock]

Haha thank you, Molly. I was a photographer first, so I'm a bit obsessed with placement and flat lay. I'm so glad I can provide a cozy atmosphere. Cozy and calming vibes is what I'm all about and want it in my videos. And you're totally right... I am aiming to create a specific aesthetic that makes people feel relaxed about painting. :)

[@bizzybee852]

Wow!! This landscape painting turned out beautiful! The deeper orange really helped with the contrast.

[@SwatiOhri]

So serene, so beautiful❤

[@LUFenna]

As always.... thank you for the video. I love the way you set up your work space with candles and nature....it makes me appreciate how important atmosphere and calm is.

[@JackiePeacock]

Thank you for this lovely comment. I love calm so much and love that I can bring it to others, too. Creating a woodsy atmosphere is a major goal in each of my videos. I just love it.

[@consueloyoung4484]

Absolutely love this and all of your paintings!!. From the way you hold the brush for a particular affect to your chosen colors, the beautiful way you create the mountains. I am truly in love with your work!!.❤

[@JackiePeacock]

thank you thank you thank you!

[@brianrogersart]

Great video Jackie! I love picking up other artists techniques, I loved the dry brush on your mountains and the back and forth with your evergreen trees. ❤

[@JackiePeacock]

Thank you, Brian. I love discovering other artists and their approach, too. I appreciate the comment and you spending time on my channel. 🌲

I really have fallen in love with your landscape paintings.

[@JackiePeacock]

I appreciate that, thank you :)

[@carolstefan7662]

I’ve watched this video three times now. It’s beautiful! I learn a lot and need to remember what is said about the distant trees should be lighter when I practice. It looks like a rolling mist is coming down thru the mountains. Can’t wait to try this!

[@JackiePeacock]

Thank you for watching, Carol! I've done that many times with other artists haha. I love me some good misty scenes, so you'll probably see some mist in every painting I do. I hope you get the painting you're after!

[@Tincanart_25]

Wow, I’m so excited I found you. You are exactly the artist and teacher I’ve been looking for to take me to the next stage of my landscape journey. Thank you so much for sharing!!!

[@JackiePeacock]

Oh wow thank you! That's amazing! I appreciate you leaving me kind feedback, and I hope to continue providing valuable content, even if the paintings aren't top notch every time!

[@rhondanicholson889]

Again, I love your paintings. I had put a picture of one my pictures of misty mountains on one of my watercoloring beginners groups. Everyone loved it and wanted to know who did I watch to get my skills. So I told them Jackie Peacok. I said everyone needs to watch her, she is amazing. So you may have more people subscribing to your channel.

[@JackiePeacock]

Omg Rhonda! Thank you for being such a wonderful supportive viewer and cheerleader. I greatly appreciate your comments and feedback. And I'm so happy you can connect with my style of teaching and art. I hope you get the art you're after and fall in love with it.

[@rhondanicholson889]

@@JackiePeacock everyone was asking, who do you watch to get these results? And how can you master the mist with you being a newbie? I would say watch Jackie Peacock. She is the master of the misty mountains. So I hope that you get more supporters watching you , cause you really helped me

[@JackiePeacock]

@rhondanicholson889 That’s amazing, Rhonda! You can always make beautiful art as a newbie. Love that. And thank you for sharing. I know misty landscapes can be tricky, so I hope to help anyone interested in this subject. 🌲

[@LloydClaudia]

Love your painting and as a beginner it's very easy to understand because you explain really well Thank you

[@JackiePeacock]

I’m so glad my teaching style connects with you! Thank you for the feedback.

[@user-bk8qn9rh5k]

Beautiful painting! Love the contrast in colors and the contrast in the softness of the distant trees vs. defined closer trees. Love it!

[@JackiePeacock]

Thank you for your feedback! It's fun playing with distance. And omg contrast is my favorite thing.

[@annenglish2935]

Someone mentioned your name on Kristen Van Leuven utube video... said you did something similar with misty trees and that you're from the Pacific Northwest!!! That's where I grew up ... then onto California at 18! You paint beautiful landscapes!! I've already visited your post!!! 🎉 Happy painting!!! Thank you from a California Gramma ❤️

[@annenglish2935]

I wish you would continue to paint Pacific NW landscaping maybe with a lake near the mountains ...

[@heather5926]

I just iron my paper if it wrinkles. I put a tea towel over the paper and have the painting facing down away from the iron. Then, do a quick pass and place a book on it to cool flat.

[@JackiePeacock]

I’ve never actually ironed my paper. Ok give that a go. I love the spraying on the back and flattening it technique, but harder to do with larger paintings.

[@francescad4054]

Just found your channel and love your style and your approach. As an enthusiastic beginner at age 63, I’m struggling to find what kind of subjects I like, where I feel more comfortable, what colors I feel happier using, well you know what I mean. Thank you for these inspiring videos and paintings that speak to my heart.

[@JackiePeacock]

[@dajoba]

I like the subtle color composition. What green do you need for the fir trees in this picture? Kind regards, Michael

[@JackiePeacock]

Thank you. I appreciate that, because I love simplicity in my paintings. I'm glad you like it, too. For the trees I believe I used lamp black by Daniel Smith, and I may have had some Deep Sap Green in there as well. I didn't list it or mention it in the video from what I can see. Sorry about that. But I use these colors quite often for trees. Same with Perlyene green.

Thank you for all those nice videos you make. I love your landscapes with the trees. I will be soon enrolling in a watercolour class for beginner so I am taking notes of your tricks. I want to do landscapes too. It is so calming to see your landscapes. I have a bit of painting equipment and have been doodling stuff in the meantime but I am waiting for the class to find out what are the good tools and paint to buy. I will need tips on how to do the mountains and the sky.

[@JackiePeacock]

I hope your class is a wonderful experience! Let me know how you like taking watercolor classes. I love that you want to paint landscapes. There's just something magical about them. Bringing something to life on paper is wonderful. And thank you so much for the kind and lovely comments. I greatly appreciate them, Marie. Thank you!

Lovely painting, but did you sketch something ahead of time? It's very hard to see whether you did or didn't?

[@acedreamer2004]

...I watched this whole video and my drawing looks *so bad* It's not your fault, this is an incredible video and I'm sure you helped so many people, I just have such a hard time with watercolor. I'm 19 years old and my painting looks like something a 5 year old would draw. It's just really frustrating when you try so hard but the result turns out bad. I made a lot of mistakes

[@JackiePeacock]

I'm so sorry you're feeling this way! I get it, though. It's one of the hardest parts of being an artist, and I get these same feelings today. Some days you paint something incredible, and others it's like you've never picked up a brush before. I've been painting landscapes for a while now, but I'm thinking that for future videos I'll try to make them even more simple in the sense of steps to take, or try to make the videos in a step-by-step way that's easy to follow. But I know that with time and continuing to paint and NOT falling into the comparison trap, you'll get the painting you want and love it. Thank you for sharing this with me, and I wish you a better painting experience.

[@keariewashburn4680]

I make a hundred not so great pieces and get two at least that I like. I just keep on cause that's how I learn. Watercolor is very different to work with but I'm addicted to it. Patience and peace to you in finding what you truly enjoy 😉

[@cstovinrealtor]

Maybe I missed it, I have to read the caption - I don't see what colors you are using?

[@JackiePeacock]

I checked in the description of this video to make sure the materials listed included the colors, and they are there. All by Daniel Smith. Let me know if you have any trouble. 🌲

[@cstovinrealtor]

think what I meant, for example, you are painting and talking about taping your paper - but are you starting with black or grey?

[@JackiePeacock]

Ahh okay, I think I know what you're asking. So i used a very light wash of paynes grey for the skiy. I believe I only used the black in the tree mix. @@cstovinrealtor
