Paint Lois' Simple LAKE DISTRICT Loose WATERCOLOR Landscape Painting Line & Wash Watercolour Demo

It's Lois here today, please join me as I paint this beautiful scene from The Lake District in the North of England, trying to capture the bleak beauty of the sky, hills and the little farm nestled below the tall pine trees, with the focus on the sunlight on the fields. It's an impressionistic loose watercolour painting using the line and wash and wet in wet method and really simplifying the scene to create atmosphere rather than the detail.
Materials: Saunders Waterford 140lb/300gsm cold pressed watercolour paper, 11" by 15"/28cms x 38cms. It is taped to my board and my board is at an angle of about 45 degrees. I used a carpenter's pencil to draw the scene, and a size Medium waterproof Faber Castell fine liner and a brush pen to ink in the line work. My colours today are cobalt blue, ultramarine blue, lavender blue, cad yellow, burnt and raw sienna

I love this style of painting. I always come back to this way of painting despite other tutorials. The larger pencil and brushes really help to loosen the techniques up. More, please…😊

I was doodling in a sketch book while watching this. The seascape regardless of what I did, just looked flat. White gauche for some ripples helped. Then you started your Lemmon yellow glaze. I know yellow and blue make green. I just had to do it. I was impressed it is slightly green, in my eyes looks natural as if the sun is doing it. Thank you for this tip.

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

Glazing is a really useful technique!

[@pamgibbons2043]

👌👌

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

[@julievickers45]

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

[@davidkennedy4863]

Lovely painting, enjoyed the process. Question, what did you use to make the yellow glade ?

[@davidkennedy4863]

Should read “yellow glaze”

[@Banniesartistry]

Loved it! What camera do you use?

[@LoisDavidsonArt]

My iPhone

[@Banniesartistry]

@@LoisDavidsonArt the quality is very good. My iPhone 13 camera is not as good at all.
