  • I was so mesmerised by this picture of a quaint street in Italy that I had to sketch it, so this is a more challenging tutorial than the last one, however, everyone is different so I won’t say if it is an easy or hard one. That you have to decide for yourself alright🌟

    You're style is so original. As a beginner, Im looking at lots of tutorials these days, and noticing styles. Nobody is doing what you're doing. Whatever may happen with time, dont change your formula. It's just too unique.

    I’m sorry, but is this amazing, I actually recognised this street just by the thumbnail, it’s called “via delle volte” and it’s near the place I grew up in, so I’m pretty used to these streets. Gorgeous work, to be honest you captured the place very well.💕

    What you call a mistake, such as with the excess yellow color, turns out to be a blessing because the orange you added just made the painting that much richer, with the final touch being the reflections in the street which were just perfect!!!

    Absolutely beautiful! I am an Acrylic artist myself and a lot of times I see similarities between watercolor and Acrylic and I also do Dry Point Intaglio Printmaking where as a result I use watercolors to embellish my prints after the fact. So bravo to you on your mastery of watercolor. You have inspired me to do street scenes of Paris France and places in Spain. I always knew that whatever medium you are working in being minimal on the details is always impactful and that there really is no need to add every single brick or stone.

    I was looking at some old master architecture drawings and noticed they would also use a lighter watered down ink to suggest depth. I like how you weren't afraid to go too yellow, knowing you could tone it down later. Orange was a perfect transition color. I would have toned it down with water, then added orange, and done it earlier, but that's me, as I prefer orange to yellow. I also like you are not a purist, but will put in white highlights in gouache where need be.
    Your voice is very soothing.

    • @JilleeArts
      @JilleeArts  Рік тому +1

      Watered down ink is something I haven’t tried yet, it is intriguing though. I am glad I made it more orange too, yellow is a color I am not so afraid of because it is so light and can be easily layered over.
      I didn’t use gouache in the past, then I signed up for a course, and the teacher taught about using white goauche, plus I’ve seen some masters using gouache too, so I think using gouache for small touch ups is perfectly good esp for sketches. Thanks for commenting Thomas!☺️💓
