Speedup Watercolor Figure Sketching

We continue to practice spontaneous painting. The idea was to divide the work into two stages - a spontaneous background from the splash and a detailed study of the shadow part only. A speed-up video of a one-hour demo on online courses in my studio.

[@donnabrooks7783]

Michael! Your painting technique is so damn amazing, mind blowing and absolutely stunning! I bought watercolor supplies, but to afraid to try. I need to buy your book! I need to loosen up. This painting makes me think maybe if I first drink some Vodka and then go paint...who knows, but it is only 7am here! Lol!

[@watercoloronlinemsolovyev]

Haha, Donna, wine would be better :) Honestly, do not be afraid, serious, or nervous. Just give it all a try. If doubt continues, you can take my video courses on watercoloronline.com

Amazing 😍.. its look very easy but it is not... I know because I always wants achieve this kinda losse effect but i always end up with suck..

[@watercoloronlinemsolovyev]

Thanks a lot. When you draw, forget the objects, and concentrate on lights and shadows. That would make the watercolor loose!

[@ANDRupayans]

[@kevo625]

Whenever I try to paint loosely it always turns out a mess!

[@watercoloronlinemsolovyev]

I know how to fix it. Try to make in two steps. First - really loosely )a few glass of wine). On the next day put the second perfectly made layer. This balance make the artwork. ))

[@artakweber8908]

Здравствуйте уважаемый Михаил. Скажите пожалуйста ,у вас есть уроки или видео на русском? Мне очень нравится как вы пишете ,но к сожалению английский не знаю.

[@watercoloronlinemsolovyev]

Здравствуйте! К сожалению поскольку я живу и работаю в Канаде все мои видеоуроки на английском. Но я веду частные уроки на русском языке тоже - все-таки родной язык ))) Но вот видеокурсы - нет... Спасибо что спросили!
