Painting Streams, Rocks, and Trees in Watercolor

Tony Couch’s bold energetic style comes through clearly in this watercolor instruction video. It is a “how-to” on three different subjects — all accomplished using the same tools, within the same palette, paying attention to consistency and composition. Couch shows enjoyment and flexibility in accepting “accidents.” He makes the natural flow of the paint work!

Tony begins this watercolor DVD by discussing elements of choosing a subject, organizing the basic composition of a painting, and completing a simple value drawing to be used for establishing perspective around which the painting is built. Tony's methods of simplifying the subject matter, and mixing paint directly on the paper, exploit the richness of watercolor. He demonstrates and explains the importance of attention to light and dark, basic shapes, balance, contrast, and mid-values. He discusses design and color balance on damp paper, as well as shifting hue intensity as the pigments dry.

Tony discusses how to create a simple value drawing on the same paper to be used for the watercolor — a minimal drawing only used to establish perspective around which to build the painting. As he paints, he discusses the ever-changing conditions that make watercolor an exciting challenge. You will take away a rich set of tools and perpectives from this watercolor instruction video by Crystal Productions. Enjoy Tony's vitality as you learn new watercolor techniques to create vivid natural scenes.
