How to Paint a Boat in Watercolor - Watercolor Painting Process (Watercolor Corner #15) 

Really like the painting and I loved your teaching! You are a very good teacher and your English is fine!

Dear Liron, I have returned to doing art after many years of pursing other interests. You are so generous with your time and trying to help others improve their art work. One thing I particularly like is that we get to see how you have developed your skills as an artist. That way, when I look and see all the flaws in what I have painted, I don't feel so bad because it is about the process. Like anything, you have to "do it" to be good at it. Your work, painting and drawing, is wonderful and your videos are incredibly instructive. Most artists of your calibre would charge for this level of instruction so thank you for your generosity of spirit.

Fantastic !! just started watching your vlogs and love them really helping me progress in my painting thank you 🙏🏼

Thank you so much Liron, lovely video!

Liron you are doing fine. Continue doing what you are doing. It's fun and learning watching you paint.

Excited about painting a boat. Like watching your process. Wouldn’t mind the video being longer. I learn a lot from your explanations of what you are doing. And yes, they are called oars😉

Liron, I love to hear your critique of your progress in your skill! Very helpful and encouraging. I love the rain too. 😊

thanks for the information about less water in layering wet in wet

FYI If the boat has an oar lock, it is to hold an oar, as in rowboats. If no oar lock, a paddle is used to propel the boat, as in kayaks and canoes.

You do beautiful I really like it. Thank you.

Another very helpful video! You mention a lot of tips that other people just take for granted.

Thank you for this lesson! Enjoyed it and learned from it!

I love this video, the length is perfect. I love how you explain your process, why you are doing what you are doing as you are doing it. As for the people LOL you should just call them buoys since they didn't work out as people. They do make perfect buoys.

Thank you for demonstrating your process and sharing this with the rest of us viewers. I found it all dry helpful and informative. The length of the video is perfect for me. I particularly like the way you describe the process as you created this lovely painting.

Very nice. Well done and yes, oars is correct!

Fantastic channel! I really enjoy watching your videos.

Enjoyed your natural style and simplicity. Detailing, tips etc were very useful. Good luck!

Liron! Great video! Remember that if you just assume something in a sketch or painting the eye enterpretes it the right way, so I think you did good with the "mistakes". Don´t be to hard on yourself, have fun and enjoy painting.

As usual, another great video. Thanks again for sharing. I look forward to attempting this over the holiday break. Thought the video length was fine; however, I also enjoy just watching a painting from start to finish in real-time. Bon voyage a Paris!

Great painting and tutorial, btw your English is perfect. Thank you for sharing.

I really enjoyed that. It was really instructive. I think it could have been a little longer, however, you covered enough of the process to make it easy to recreate in our own homes. I would really enjoy seeing more instructional videos like this as it was extremely comfortable to follow.The only thing I would ask is for a list of the colours you used in it. Thank you Liron. I totally love the way you do these new style of video. I have gained much knowledge from them. Thank you Liron.

iT WAS GREAT , LOVED IT

That was a great tutorial, step by step. Thanks

Really nice painting! I just discovered your channel and i'm enjoying your videos a lot!

Great job

Enjoyed your painting. Thanks.

Great!

If you had pulled off the "LIFEGUARD" text on the boat, the dots in the background would immediately have made more sense. Excellent video, and I much appreciate how you express the thought process while you paint - a special example would be how you commented on your attempt to paint the "LIFEGUARD" on the boat and didn't quite make it. I can't count the times I have had that same frustration. I do hope you continue contributing to the art of watercolor painting.

Love the video. Good job

Great lesson. Thanks!

Oars is correct. A paddle has a blade at both ends like you wound use with a kayak

Would love to see more boat paintings please.

Loved your channel . keep it up .

so helpful love this video

Perfect, thank you.

Cool indeed!

beautiful, can you show how to draw the boat I think that is so important thank you.

👍👏👏👏

Great video Liron! Really good instruction on large shapes and values. Nice work. A side note: I just returned from a trip to Israel. I had a really long wait in the TLV airport. I was really tempted to ask you to run down there so I could meet you, haha! I love your work, brother.

Thank you

Great, very informative.

Great video!

Thank you ! Love this subject ! Main thing is ..... there is no substitute for a GOOD drawing. You can't really go very wrong with the paint if the "skeleton" is accurate.

Awesome. Thanks bro

Very nice, thank you so much.

Good job. Thank you.

Nice drawing , congratulations . Do You apply 4 or five layers....is it neccesary or with only 3 it is enought? .

Very nice

amazing thank you.

hi. thank you for sharing. where is the link to the reference image? thank you

Thank you Liron. I do wish you would type your pigment numbers in the "Show" portion. I use a limited palette of usually a blue or green, rose or red and deep yellow all the same temperature. Its a lot of mixing but somehow simpler to do for me. I'm just curious what you use. Thanks again... where I live, I don't get a chance to see water or boats much.

Hi Liron, Do you think sometime in the future you could demonstrate how to draw some boats. I have a problem trying to draw boats. Thanks. Craig

Is just 👌

thank you. i like your video very much. shell from oz.

Very good work art thank

Is that a black velvet brush? How do you like it? The short paddle length looks wrong. Nice value, contrast.

Was this always wet on dry? 'English isn't my first language'. No but your presentation was excellent and clearly explained every step.

can only say. thank you

Very good painting abouts

Hi Liron id love to have a go at this painting can you remember roughly what colours you used just to give a rough idea

I found the egg shaped liron

Looks good :) What paper did you use?

Would have been nice if you could have listed the colours you used just makes it easier to follow

loved the demonstration and the explanations of light and darks,, except you never gave much detail about colours used

Request

Good helpful video, as always. However a general warning may be in order. A good proportion of tbose who like and buy marine watercolours are nautical experts of one kind or another. The first thing they look for is nautical accuracy, and your painting falls down a bit in this respect - there's no breasthook for instance, so the bow would fall apart, and there's something wrong with the overall design. So as a marine artist you either need to know how boats are built, or copy what you see absolutely accurately. And the single best piece of advice I ever received on painting boats is to remember that boats and ships float in the water, not on the water.

I bought Woodglut once and now I have lifetime access to thousands of woodworking projects.

Oars is the word. Ha, ha.

Ok, first of ALL...face wayyyy too close to camera at beginning, lol but yeah...The rest...Thank you very much! Very informative, great pace. You have an immediate sub from me...Thank you again.

Salut Liron. Mauvais choix de papier. Attention de bien choisir ta source de lumière. Ne jamais traiter la berge, au loin, aux mêmes tons que la rive de l'avant-plan. Info : le ton de l'ombre du blanc (bateau et autres) est le BLEU, dans tes conditions atmosphériques montrées et choisies. Ici, tu as deux tons différents pour tes ombres ! Mets plus de nuances dans les montagnes en arrière-plan, (simulation de verdures, de vallées, de rochers, d'ombres, traite tes montagnes avec plus de légèreté, plus lointaines, estompées...) Mets de la matière (bois, eau, écume, brillance... ), plus que de la peinture. Apprends à travailler avec la pointe de ton pinceau. Observe mieux comment est ''organisée'' une barque (la quille remonte devant, en une pièce visible. A l'avant, un compartiment fermé pour y stocker les prises de poissons doit apparaître en fonction de l'angle de vue...) Tu as compris la théorie des ombres portées, étudie désormais les ombres portantes. Soigne la rectilignité de ta ligne d'horizon, le résultat en sera plus appréciable. Ne peins pas seulement avec tes yeux, mais aussi avec ta tête : sois difficile dans la représentation des éléments dessinés : respecte la perspective et la logique (la courte pagaie ne prend pas place dans ta barque). Choisi un papier qui, en travail à sec, te laisse des blancs bienvenus (écumes et vagues, dans ce cas-ci). Evite les tons verts crus. Ose les mélanges. Ne tombe pas dans le travers du ''remplissage'' de formes, il est mieux de superposer différents tons qui donneront, au final, des teintes plus riches. Tes silhouettes noires ne sont pas des éléments réussis : à éviter. Choisi des godets de pigments de qualité, ceux-ci sont plutôt des tons ''sales''. Emploie un crayon demi gras et dessine léger : le crayonné doit disparaître après couleurs. Laisse des blancs entre deux tons, tu verras que c'est de bon goût. Tu aurais du choisir un format de papier plus grand et tu aurais du dessiner ta barque (et tous tes autres sujets futurs) aux deux tiers de la largeur du papier au lieux de l'endroit actuel (théorie des 2/3-1/3 : point d'or) ; mise ainsi, ta barque bloque, coupe l'horizon, bouche ton dessin. Aussi, visionne les techniques des autres You tubeurs ; il y en a de très bons (Javid...) Salut, Liron.
