/ loisdavidsonart I found a couple of interesting short handled Chinese bamboo hake brushes online and thought I'd give them a try for this loose watercolour landscape painting. It depicts a frosty, misty sunrise over the South Downs.
Materials: 1/4 imperial sheet of Millford cold pressed paper, 140lb, 2" & 1" cheap bamboo hake brushes (easily obtainable through Ebay or Amazon etc), various other brushes, see video, raw sienna, rose madder, cobalt blue turquoise red shade, sepia, paynes grey and indigo

So happy and grateful that you've shared your watercolor paint demos. I have been painting along with you as an absolute beginner and finally feel like I'm understanding watercolor and totally enjoying myself. I plan to paint along with all 400+ videos! Truly a gift to myself of a relaxing hour of creativity. Thank you!!

Your new brushes seem to becoming more and more popular with watercolorists... you had me worried initially, but my word, you pulled it off! Excellent painting! 🙏🎨

@LoisDavidsonArt 3 года назад

Thanks so much Franco, I was worried too but luckily I remembered to turn the board 😅😊🎄

Lois I adore your work and your presentation. I'm devouring all of your content and trying my best to pick out any pointers to try and improve. Your skies are always divine!

Very nice example of a wet in wet landscape.

@craftytraveler9238 11 месяцев назад

I am amazed at your painting technique of swiping on colors, turning your board around and ending up with that beautiful sky. If I did that it would look like mud. Thanks for the video.

@TheDabshear 3 года назад

Beautiful painting and great recovery from that juicy brush. I love hake for applying water but really dislike painting with them. Between the loose hairs and the textures amount of water they hold I don’t enjoy them. You did a great job and allowed the painting to do what it wanted to do! Thank you for sharing!

@philipdown3147 3 года назад

Brilliant colours in the sky Lois, certainly had to use your skills with the brushes able to take more water. You've achieved good depth in this painting, thanks for sharing greatly appreciated stay safe and healthy. Good new year ahead to you and family

Do you have a picture of the South Downs? Being from the US I will probably never get there but I'd love to see what you're seeing. This painting tells me its lovely. I love how the sky, mist, trees et al happened. It's a beautiful painting!

Hi Louise. Lovely stuff. You will like a book called Realistic Abstracts by Kees Van Aalst. Similar to your delightful paintings. As with your work I found it inspiring.

@LoisDavidsonArt 3 года назад

Thanks so much, I have that book, and it is wonderful, it is one of the things that inspired me to try to be a bit looser and more abstract in my approach while keeping a thread of realism where possible, KVA is an amazing artist and teacher

@FannaTurano 3 года назад

I have the identical hake brushes, & they definitely have a learning curve. They still drop hairs on every painting I create, something to be aware of. For me, they are a "pita,". What is imperial size? 1/4 sheet? And I LOVE the gorgeous skies you always create! This one is so happy.

@LoisDavidsonArt 3 года назад

Thanks! Yes, they did shed some hairs, thanks for your feedback, i shall keep an eye on that in the future! 1/4 imperial sheet is 11" x 15"/28cm x 38cm

@dancer4560 2 года назад

love your demos.They have really helped me get back "my art spirit". TY. I must say I am learning about the colors I need to realize that yellow and blue make green and find a blue shade that doesn't blend to a green lol. I have to find blue shades with red in them so I don't get green-is that correct what are some of these shades? You mentioned one-cobalt turquoise red shade-TY. The book "Making Color Sing" has taugh me a great deal about color but still it is to my mind confusing.

@joannestowell6720 3 года назад

Beautiful painting ! Can I ask what your board is made from ? Thanks .

@LoisDavidsonArt 3 года назад

Thanks, its a heavy linen-covered cardboard canvas for painting with oils or acrylics, i use it as a board instead

@jerseyjoe1677 Год назад

@kileensmith5134 2 года назад

Beautiful painting, as usual. Do you ever use hot press paper? Would you give a demonstration using hot press?

Thanks, i do use hot press but it's a much trickier paper for beginners, and here I like to do demos and tutorials that even beginners can try, and succeed with with a bit of practice, so probably not
