Painting simple watercolour figures

Demonstration of simple figures in watercolour (watercolor) that help add life, scale and movement into your scenes. The brush is an Art Basic golden nylon rigger #6, code 1365-R. It is my go to figure painting brush in preference to one with a pointy tip.
This tutorial is designed for anyone from absolute beginners to those looking to pick up new skills.

My favourite supplies are Arches or Saunders Waterford rough 300GSM paper and most of my paints are Windsor & Newton artist quality.
My palette generally consists of - (all W&N unless specified) French Ultramarine, Cobalt Blue, Cerulean Blue, Cobalt Turquoise, Alizarin Crimson, Rose Madder Genuine, Cad Red Light, Schminke Cad Red Orange, Light Red, Brown Madder, Neutral Tint, Yellow Ochre, Naples Yellow, Cad Yellow Light, Indian Yellow, Diox Purple, Green Gold, Indigo, Pyrolene Green, Holbein Lavender, Art Spectrum Australian Grey, Art Spectrum White Gouache.
Depending on the subject matter I will add some other colours to my palette as needed. When I am working on flowers I add some pinks like Quin Magenta, and Purple Lake to the mix.
The brushes will soon be available on my website www.cherylbrucecreativ.com/shop as they are a bit tricky to source so I have decided to stock them myself. It is a weasel hair brush that can be widened out to a flattish tip which I find great for a range of mark making.
