In this video I am attempting to recreate a previous abstract but with a different colour scheme. This is a large (for watercolour) abstract watercolour and I use the spray bottle to create different running lines to create the trees and the branches. I am happy with the result and I'll add some gold leaf in the next few days. I don't think it quite meets the brief though so will probably be doing another one.
I really love the movement of the pigment that would be difficult to paint yourself that occurs with using the spray bottle turned to doing a jet instead of fine spray. It is pretty interesting!
This was painted on a full sheet of Rives BFK etching paper 56cm x 76cm 280gsm white
The colours used were:
Paynes Grey
Alizarin Crimson
Cadmium Red
Cerulean Blue
Winsor Yellow
Cobalt Blue
Then later on some more alizarin crimson flicked on with a tooth brush, paynes grey in the foreground and cadmium yellow in the middle ground.
The brushes used were:
6 inch hake brush
4 inch hake brushes
Rigger brush
Pure Kolinsky Round Sable
Butter Soft Container Lid
Spray bottle
Tooth brush
Tissues
3M magic tape to attach the paper at the top of the board
MDF board to attach the paper to
I will be adding some gold leaf, which I have never done before, any tips welcome! I think that will help add a subject and focal point.
Thanks for watching!
Happy painting!
Cheers
Scott

Rives BFK etching paper. Probably best to source this from your local store so you can look after the paper and not have it posted unless you are buying a large amount of paper and it will be looked after. There is nothing worse than getting hundreds of sheets all with a indent in them. Having said that you can actually source this paper from amazon:
geni.us/RivesBFK
Some people have been extremely happy with the state of the paper when it arrived (and some not!)
I love this paper it is soft and lights are lifted easily from it.

Bless you. And the little lizard
Thanks Karol!
Thankyou 😊 I love how you are honest in your painting, when things are real and don't necessarily go as planned, it's great.... Rather than polished like other artists, if you get what I mean, I find that encouraging.... It's a great painting, thankyou so very much..
Hi Theresa! Thanks! I paint and talk and show the ups and the downs of watercolour painting. I’m really glad you like the open and honest approach. Like you say not polished! Thanks for watching! 👍🙏
Love This one, way to go....
Thanks Paul! The very first time I produced trees by spraying was a total accident! It was good to be able to replicate it again but with different colours! 👍👍
Hi Scott...... Beautiful....
Thanks Begona!
Scott. I’m so happy I found you. Feels like I’ve been searching for you for so long. You’re amazing. This is beautiful ❤️. Xo
Hi Janice! Thanks! It’s great to find artists that you feel a connection to their work! I’m glad you’ve found me too! Happy painting! 👍👍👍
Just found you! I was trying to find some ideas for painting watercolor LARGE. This has been so interesting and I want to give it a go! Thank you for all your comments through the process.
Hi Jody! No worries! I also have some videos of painting a watercolour 200cm x 100cm! Even bigger! Lol! 👍👍

gold leaf....my heart leapt! would love to see the final edition. nice lizard too!
I’ll keep you posted! 👍
Fantastic interpretation. Just love watching every thing develop THANKYOU
It is a pretty cool landscape and I ended up putting in some gold leaf which was an interesting process!
Amazing. Fascinating to watch every thing take place. THANKYOU terrific interpretation
no worries Karol! An interesting colour palette for me! But I really liked it!
Thank you once again for sharing Scott. Loved watching your process. Would love to view the finished piece. 😊
Hi Cathy! Will keep you posted!! 👍👍
It’s so helpful to see you struggle with this painting. We all need to understand everyone has moments when they aren’t happy with a piece. I actually like this one if some of the bottom is cropped off! Maybe 1/4 ?
Same!
Sounds good! I’ll have a look at that! 👍
Thanks! 👍
I really like the first part but when you started pointing out what you didn't like about it I could see that that round circular part in the center. Then you put the yellow and lightened some of the dark spots. And I love the color that happened at the bottom of the painting. I've never tried to go back after my painting has been dried and rewetting it. I think it came out great. I'd love to see how you did the gold leaf. Thanks.
Hi Suzan! Thanks! I think I did video the gold leaf part but never shared it! I’ll see if I can find it! Glad you liked watching the process! 👍👍
I painted an artist that I learned how to do it from watching you paint I’m not sure if it is done as it still is wetQ
That’s great Ruth! It always looks a bit different wet vs dry! 👍👍
Great way of work!
Thanks! 🙏👍
I think it would be super awesome if you just cut off the bottom third! But, it’s also gorgeous the way it is. 👏 👏
Hi Kristie! Thanks! A few people have said that! Will have to look at it when I get home! 👍
Great work! thanks for sharing!
Hi Roberta! No worries! Happy painting!! 🙏
WOW
Wow, So beautiful like dream! 🤩😻👍🌹
Thanks Tong! 🙏
Call me crazy but I love it! It draws you in..not just another pretty face.
Hi Patsy! You are binge watching these videos! lol! I do like that painting too! Then I added gold leaf which I think didn't work amazingly for that painting! Cheers Scott
Magnifique
Thanks darina! 🙏🙏
Hi Scott... Very nice
Hi Begona! Thanks! 🙏
I absolutely love your work. So beautiful. Also I love the music. Sometimes makes me cry. Who is the artist?
Hi Lola’s Mom! Really pleased you like the videos! The song I often use is “better now “ by I think Ian post. I’ll check snd get back to you. 👍👍
The first flip view at 3:14 looked SO cool! Would also love to see your process of adding the gold leaf.
Hi Laura! Yes I know! That could be a series in itself! Will put the gold leaf up at the beginning of the next video. 👍👍
Bonjour scott de France…toujours extraordinaire votre travail..mais quel est la qualité du papier ? Merci
Hi MJ! The paper is Rives BFK etching paper 280gsm, white, 100% cotton. It is made by Arches in France. I love it as a paper to work with! Cheers Scott
Don’t think I saw the finished painting with gold leaf added in your later videos. Did you ever post it?
Hi there, I don’t think I shared that footage. I could dig it up and post it. 👍
How can you put a gold leaf over the watercolor ??
Why do you prefer etching paper rather than watercolor paper? Just curious.
Hi Bas! I like both! I suppose a few things. Firstly it is whiter than arches and I like that for skies and luminosity. There are whiter papers available that are normal watercolour paper I will try sometime in the future. I also like that watercolours disperse well wet in wet across its surface. Also for multiple layers it seems to accept the watercolour pigment more than arches making it easier to produce a more vibrant watercolour painting when doing many layers. Lastly I am used to it. It is like a friend to me and so I enjoy the easy companionship! 👍😃👍
Gracias por poner sustituto en español.
No worries Olalla!
Do you wet from underneath? Scott
