How To Paint A Loose Watercolour Desert, simple landscape watercolor hake painting

[@michaelklein5242]

Relaxed and beautiful with nicely balanced values. This is rather much the style I hope to develop. Thank you so very much! 👏👏🎨

[@patriciaronayne173]

Brilliant. Looks like a heat haze in the foreground. Love it 😊

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks so much!

[@marybirder5663]

Lovely, warm desert scene, Lois! Your tree tree turned out great and such a wonderful idea to use my forgotten tube of Perylene Green. I've had it forever and never get around to using it. Inspiring painting, as usual Lois, many thanks for your valuable tutorials. You're a gifted artist and I appreciate watching and learning from your techniques!

[@shephherd]

Beautiful! I liked how you did the light and the tree's shadow :)

[@LavishHim]

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😀. The paler area looks like a sunbeam! I love the happy accident!

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thank you so much for that!

[@sarahantin2106]

Lois, this one helps, of course, as I live in Sedona, Arizona. Plus I am helped by viewing the reference photo.

This is so warm and serene at the same time. When you added that palest, highest mountain in the background, it made my heart say "yes". It gave the painting just the weight that the whole composition needed.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks so much, I was pleased with that part too, one of the reasons I love the hake brush, it does all that work with a single stroke!

Beautiful Acacia tree... typical African scene, beautifully painted. 🙏🎨🙏

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks so much Franco, I'm a bit in love with painting deserts now, more to come I'm sure ;-)

[@connieostroha8423]

Beautiful Lois! Looks like a lone acacia tree out on the Serengeti! 💕

[@dereklonghurst]

Thanks Lois - this one’s a bit closer to home. It’s hard to feel totally committed to realising your snow scenes when it’s 40°C outside!

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Good point Derek. I hope to do a few more desert scenes in the near future!

[@melaniemikula4873]

I love your paintings and even though I'm a total beginner I'm trying to paint along with you! Thanks for your videos!

[@ShahanoorMamun]

Beautiful Landscape! You did very nicely!!!

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Большое спасибо ! Замечательный урок. До новых встреч.

[@marlo530]

Really loved this tutorial. Mine turned out a little differently than you because I used a mixed media sketchbook however I am really glad how it turned out. Really appreciate your tutorials! Thank you :-)

[@ARTYCOATY]

It's a very beautiful and wonderful art! I think your work is very special and wonderful. I learned a lot about the technique. I love your video. Thank you for seeing such a wonderful work. I respect and support you.

It looks beautiful and inspiring!

Thank you!

[@raedalrassam2257]

nice work 😍👍🌷

[@loisbrennan3967]

Wow, lovely warm picture! The composition looks similar to a sketch I did of a photo I took in the Sinai, will have to dig that photo out again and give it a go!

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks so much, sounds like a good idea!

[@aqsariaz6790]

I will try it inshAllah 😍 🌟🔥🔥

As usual, fabulous!!!!

[@kellyhalligan1328]

Lovely

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thank you!

[@christinefaulkner531]

I have lived in this type of desert, a lovely painting. Could l ask the reason for you painting the distant hill last?

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thank you! There's no reason, I paint fairly spontaneously, it evolves as I paint and that seemed to be the best way to layer up at the time!

[@christinefaulkner531]

@@LoisDavidsonArt Thank you.

[@ralphcrosby9622]

Thank you for this content

[@malakghaffari3028]

Hello and thank you. Your training is unique to me. Thanks a lot. Can you explain what your favorite green color is? I can not find it. With respect

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Many thanks, my favourite green is Winsor and Newton Perylene Green, but you can mix nice greens with ultramarine blue and cadmium yellow

[@anandkrishnan3326]

Nice !!

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thank you!

[@aesthetic4173]

wow 😻

[@MustafaSajjadHaider_Dramatist]

Great desert scene. Why to crop. Just wet around the white area and lift a cloud sneaking in and that's it.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks very much, a very good suggestion! 😊

[@MustafaSajjadHaider_Dramatist]

Thanks for accepting it.

[@MrDs131]

Lovely. How often do you clean your palette? Still not sure about using a tray.

[@marialunatorres7581]

Thank you so much so cute

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thank you!

[@maggimarmion3836]

Lovely ! What calligraphy brush would you recommend? 😊😊

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Any generic small Chinese brush, mine is about 3/4”, part of a very cheap set, unbranded that I bought online

[@maggimarmion3836]

@@LoisDavidsonArt thanks Lois 😊😊

[@Hagar_le_Horrible]

Like the way the foreground appears to be out of focus. Good job.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Thanks! The smudged paint spatter helped to get that effect 😊💐
