Painting water can be one of the most visually pleasing but quite often equally challenging aspects of a painting?until now! Gordon Mac Kenzie unravels a series of water painting techniques in watercolour that are sure to add a new dimension to your painting. Gordon believes " Painting Water doesn't have to be hard
- it's just a matter of learning a few techniques. The rest is just practice!" Gordon first paints a unique rock pool scene capturing what's visible both above & beneath the waters surface. Gordon compares this technique to looking through a Venetian blind
- when the blind is open you can see the blind itself but also what's beyond it. The results are truly stunning & the techniques speak for themselves. The second painting Gordon tackles focuses on looking through water from directly above. Gordon uses a negative painting technique to paint the space between the rocks & adds to the effect by creating shafts of light descending into the depths. For his final painting, Gordon uses a paper towel to create white capped waves in a stunning seascape. Learn to paint water how you never thought possible with this exciting & informative DVD!
