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

Support Morgaine on Patreon: Support Lois on Patreon: 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 Pixabay photo link: Purchase Lois’ original paintings here: Purchase Morgaine’s original paintings and handmade paint:
