I love how you've lifted some of the paint to allow the paper to come through. The peppers just glow with light. Thanks to the clear instructions, I think I'll give it a go.
You are welcome Erika. That's the thing about watercolours. Highlights are normally created by thinning the paint or letting the paper shine through as you say. Good luck if you try it. Best wishes, Steve
Stephen, another great vid! I love how you talk every step through. You’re such a great teacher, as well as a great artist. The peppers look wonderful and very lifelike. Really enjoy your vids. Might be purchasing that #8 Spearhead soon!
Hello Terry, Good question. In all my videos I am anxious that they are not too long. This one is 25 minutes as it is. Having shown the techniques for the drawing plan and painting the green pepper in some detail, I thought it was unnecessary to show this phase three times. I also thought the stalks were very straight forward. I apologise if you are disappointed that you aren't able to see the whole process. Best wishes, Steve

Great tip about matching colors. Thanks.
You are welcome, Steve
I love this watercolor! You are not only a wonderful artist, but also an excellent teacher. Thank you for this video!
Hello Cherie, thank you for your kind comments, very much appreciated

Great video some great techniques thanks.
Hi Stephen like you said it's not something you would usually do but a good exercise none the less, until next time take care and stay safe.

useful vid but why not show the whole thing?
