Let me show you how to paint this fabulous Panda in a simple loose, flowing wet on wet technique
This wonderful Panda incorporates many of the techniques we have covered in the last classes, but I have one more I want to show you! This particular method of sectioning parts off is great for anything that has a divide in, such as an ear or eye patch. We soften it down with another layer, to blend any hard edges
If you’re just starting your watercolour journey and haven’t done my beginner classes, I’d suggest taking a look at those first
If you’re feeling confident and are already familiar with some of my techniques then this will be a great class for you!
I will show you:
- How to section areas off and soften with another layer
- How to tilt the paper and allow the paint to run
- How to paint two layers/washes
- How to take colour out to get that lovely lost and found look
- How to paint simple but effective eyes
You will be painting the beautiful Panda and be amazed and inspired to add these simple techniques into your future artwork with confidence
Past reviews
"That’s the shortest and best class on Skillshare"
“Jane has immediately become my favourite SkillShare teacher! Her unique style and explanations of how and why are fantastic! Thank you, Jane! ”
"A very enjoyable way to begin to learn the fun and skill of watercolour"
“Thank you sooooo much! I've been waiting for your class to start. I'm thrilled. Love you’re easy to follow style. As a beginner, it means a lot to me to be able to follow the lesson well. Looking forward to the next one.”
“Hello Jane, I viewed your lessons fully and will rewatch and paint. I see where wet in wet can be an enhanced feature for illustration. Listening with my headphones and the chirping bird in the background was a lovely feature :). I have a Samsung tablet and the resolution and sound is really beautiful for your lessons.”
"This class exceeded my expectations! Wow, congratulations Jane!! Just watching this through... I just LOVE trees, they are my enduring love, so I may take some time out from surface pattern designing to just relax and watch the paint flow where it wants! Love DS watercolours too, so I'll have a rummage about, see if I have some granulating ones too. Thank You! Lovely bright, cheery class :O)
"I already adore Jane's work and this class couldn't be different. She has magical hands to bring beautiful images to life in watercolour, and this beginner's exercise is a great way to get rid of our fear to work with this medium. I had so much joy, it was relaxing and I got confident of using paint on wet without that feeling that "I'm gonna ruin everything."
