  • Опубліковано 10 бер 2018
  • This is part five of a muti-part series stemming from a recent trip to Florence Italy along with 10 other artists.- We traveled to the Hill town of Pienza for a day of painting watercolor in the open air. The subject in this work is the play of light and shadow across the old buildings, and eventually the tourists. I use the idea of simplifying my motif into 3 tones - lights, darks, and a large mid-tone as represented by the cast shadow.
    You can learn more about plain air watercolor and all things related to watercolor please visit my website at garytuckerartist.com
    I have also published a tutorial in the form of a pdf describing how this painting was made - you may download form this page: www.garytuckerartist.com/galle...

    The textures and color balance is excellent and I appreciate how you barely suggest a shape whilst leaving the viewer the opportunity to make his own personal interpretation of what is going on. Many thanks for sharing your obvious talent with the youtube family.

    I recently did my first painting with no pencil outlines. It's so fresh and unforced.
    And this I was inspired to do from your example. Wish I could show you.

    Gary is obviously a master watercolorist. His videos straddle the line between instruction and virtuoso performance. In some cases, he uses a straightforward step-by-step approach that could reasonably be emulated by a student. In many, however, he combines very advanced skills in an instinctive, tightrope-walking alla prima process that a student has little or no chance of ever duplicating, particularly given the time constraints of watercolor.

    Your methods and technic are very helpful. As a watercolorist myself it helps me to improve my paintings by watching other painters.
    I completely agree with your use of a limited palette. Your work inspires. I primarily paint loose landscapes but your work is helping to explore structures and figures.
    I think i'll get my kit out and enjoy the day creating...

    Another excellent Impressionist style painting - simplified and beautiful colour combinations. You have captured the light gloriously.

    Well, that was a delightful ten minutes spent! Such a lovely representation of that photo. You are right...the dry brush was very much on your side that day.
    Would you be opposed to someone using your photo for a reference from which to paint? Some say that painting from someone else's photo without permission is stealing, but I imagine, if it comes in the form of a tutorial like this, then the artists are not opposed.
