Paint a One Layer Watercolor Landscape: Irish Hillside

If you are spending hours painting landscapes in watercolor, you need an intermission! Try this simple, one layer landscape scene that focuses on the beauty of sedimentary watercolor paint on textured paper.
In this lesson you'll learn how to choose a limited palette of colors for watercolor painting, and how to use color temperature to create distance. I'll also demonstrate how edges and contrast influence composition, and when and where to make a big, dramatic, risky brush stroke!
The supplies used in this video helped me get bright colors, beautiful flow and expressive brush marks:

Your "fearless" approach really shows when you paint a delicate whippy line and then turn your brush sideways and smear it down sideways to erase it when you change your mind. Inspiring! :)

@thejoydecision724 5 лет назад

That tip about selecting different proportions of colour groupings was brilliant. The demonstration with colour squares just instantly communicated what you meant.

Angela, I really enjoyed how you show us how to make a focal point, using lights and darks. I love how you keep it simple, yet beautiful. Thank you!!

Nicest watercolor landscape I've seen. My favorite are florals, but this is gorgeous!

@donnabirney817 5 лет назад

Hi I really love your newer heartfelt inner spirit approach to our watercolor lessons. This is helping me be more expressive . thanks so much.

@juliezahn8389 5 лет назад

Angela enjoyed the video. I’ve been so busy gardening that this was just what I needed to get back painting! Thanks!

@judypeckinpaugh1567 Год назад

First time viewing this peaceful, serene painting. Then you make it come alive. I'm trying to get back into watercolor and I think you're the one to follow. Very enlightening. Opened my eyes to a lot of different areas to follow. With this 1 watercolor I learned so much. Thank you and on to the next one. Judy

I love this painting and watching you mix the colors used in the painting. I really feel as though I experienced the scene even though I have never been to Ireland. You are a wonderful teacher.

@beetiebean 5 лет назад

Love, love, LOVE hearing your thoughts and commentary while you paint. Incredibly helpful and so interesting! Thank you, Angela!

@barbararivera2380 3 года назад

Awesome! Thank you. You've turned the Irish scene into a desert landscape lol!

@ThePattiw 5 лет назад

Loved the cobalt green as well, and the beautiful granulation. Irish Hills is a gorgeous piece. Thank you for all the tips and the details. The one tip I love is the use of your Cheap Joe’s floppy liner❤️

@personthatmakesstuff4186 5 лет назад

It really helps when you include your reference photo while you are painting. Enjoyed and learned a lot. Thank you

@ginaanderson5635 5 лет назад

Thank you for this lesson, I really liked the negative painting of the grasses, just implying them. I get so bogged down in the details and this really helped me with a new perspective. Beautiful painting!

@canniemawson6380 5 лет назад

Thanks for this lesson Angela. It was good to be reminded of the warmth of the near hills and the cool of the distant hills. Soooo much to remember!

@pattythompson1739 5 лет назад

I have a large supply of student grade paper, which I started buying when it was recommended by other teaching videos. After trying 100% cotton paper I see the difference easily so I am buying this now. However, it is a slow process do you budgets and my learning skills don't warrant that cost. Thank you so much for your lessons and providing the Facebook page for us all to share our work so we can get the help of others.

Oh my...how on earth did this tutorial/video escape me? A year later, but I found it, and loved it! :)

@louisegoben7392 Год назад

Just gorgeous in its subtlety. Thank you.

@mariamg3545 5 лет назад

Angela, watching you paint this scene was very helpful. I struggle with the urge to try and paint each detail too soon, and too dark to start out, so it was good to see that light to dark transition in action. I will definitely be watching again (and again!) Thank you.

@jaspermartin7444 5 лет назад

This comment makes me want to watch the entire video! (I don't usually watch any 30 min video all the way through, just speed forward and backward, here and there. So thank you!)

@karenoshea151 6 месяцев назад

Absolutely fabulous tutorial, I am so glad I found you I love your brush work. I want to watch everything from you now

@ChristinaTodd1970 5 лет назад

This is a great color palette. I love the soft muted colors.

@a.o.3725 5 лет назад

Angela, this is another great landscape! I thought the photo was somewhat lonely, but your painting is very calm and peaceful. Really liked your color selection. I look forward to trying this. I also really like the Indigo sketchbook. It is very hard to find a 100% cotton sketchbook or journal so I will definitely get one of these. Thanks again for sharing your talent and experience. Your encouragement is priceless.

@judybreedlove5348 5 лет назад

Thank you, Angela. Always a great lesson every time I watch you. I so appreciate you.

@yvonnewhitehouse 5 лет назад

Everything you paint turns out so beautifully

@SuzetteG316 5 лет назад

I love your tutorials and this one was fantastic! (Ok, they all are, but this one especially resonated with me this week as my daughter wants me to paint her something with mountains in it.) I learned so much, as always. Thanks for this and all the great tutorials you take the time to make for us!

@angelag9346 5 лет назад

Angela....again such a fabulous video....you make it look effortless but as we fellow watercolorists know....there is much effort put into each piece. Thank you for sharing your gifts!

@KatheeRN 5 лет назад

Love the interesting colors behind the rock and mountain on the right.. really adds to this painting...like ahhhhhh, look at that in this painting...very nice work with your exceptional ability to teach. TY

@pattirodriguez2249 5 лет назад

Hi Angela the tip I found useful in todays lesson was how to approach painting in different ways!

@susie1216 2 года назад

Really nice video! The painting turned out great. I just bought an Indigo sketchbook. Can't wait to try it out. I like the limited palette idea and how you played off the traditional RBY colors. I do that sometimes, too! Thanks Angela!

@aprilharvey2225 5 лет назад

I was surprised which colours you mixed to get that perfect landscape colour. I’ve saved this to practise using those colour mixes

@JakkiCarey 5 лет назад

Thank you! I really appreciated the advice on choosing colours, and the 'triad with a difference'. I love this palette - restful and harmonious but with some bright surprises - much like Ireland itself!

@lenaporali9209 5 лет назад

Thank you for sharing. Your tips of how to choose colours for your painting was very helpful and also where to place the bold brushstrokes to create interest. Love your painting style. Thank you so much for this lesson.

@aimomanninen7868 5 лет назад

Thank you Angela! I learn something new every lesson.Thanks for introducing us to Indigo paper also.

@isabelpatchett9356 5 лет назад

Thank you Angela for another lovely scene to paint and your wonderful lesson. I have enjoyed each one and learned so much from you. I really liked having the scene up there to look at and see where you are going with the painting.

@nadadellore865 5 лет назад

Love your landscape, the details, the sublime and delicate colours. I'll try. Thank you!

@sallyburke4018 5 лет назад

A joy to watch, thank you for this great tutorial Angela 🤗

@pattirodriguez2249 5 лет назад

Thank you for a very informative lesson,I always learn something new every time I paint along with you. Beautiful fresh painting!

@babyboomer3257 5 лет назад

Hi Angela, I'm trying to paint a wintery Colorado mountain scene that is only in various shades of blues with lots of blowing snow. This video was helpful showing how to create depth and your comment that foreground landscape is warmer and background is cooler was very helpful. In a future video I would love to learn how you select the paint colors that aren't necessarily representational of the reference photo, such as this demo. I struggle with not having the skills or vision to select colors that go together yet are different than my reference photo. Thanks so much for this.

@karencole8885 5 лет назад

Love the video. When will you take a sketching/painting group to Ireland?

@elizabethsodahl9659 5 лет назад

@susanhooker7950 5 лет назад

Loved watching this! Landscapes can seem overwhelming but loved your pace. It reminds me to slow down and really be mindful of what I see going on in the photo! Thanks Angela. You always inspire me!

@patytrico 5 лет назад

As always a joy to listen and follow you ;) We must remember to take a deep breath and set us some limits before start, so we don´t loose our objective and overwork (and ruin?) a piece ;) Thank you for your effort and inspiration ;)

@nancymelching7535 5 лет назад

A beautiful loose landscape! I would love to see you paint a tropical beach scene in this loose style.

@zennovice 5 лет назад

I love that....will just try......

@don9133 5 лет назад

Relatively new to your channel. Landscapes have never been my strong suit of mine and I am working on changing that. This was very informative, giving me something to think about and try.

@louiseschultz2064 4 года назад

So lovely! Thank you!

@mpm6760 5 лет назад

Hi Angela, for a future video could you demo value jumps in the focal point? For example, show two landscapes with light and mid values ranging between 1-5 or 1-6 then make a focal point that jumps up in value to a 7 or 10. ....just wanting to know your thoughts about overdoing the center of interest . the.

@kristinstewart5556 3 года назад

Hello! I have been watching many watercolor the past month or so. I find your method really speaks to way I create. I have not had the experience and skills with watercolors to go forward as yet. My desire to try is growing. You give enough guidance to boost my confidence to try!!! Do you have a link to any video on your brushes. I noticed you like the rigger a lot! I’m curious about that.

@debbieglass1072 5 лет назад

Love your lessons thank you for sharing .I was wondering if you ever use Waterford paper it's my all time favorite the 200on cold press.

@orahblank9565 5 лет назад

Thanks!!

@conniequerer7925 5 лет назад

I'll totally have to have another go at watercolour landscapes. They always end up in the bin because I'm guilty of wanting to see the final product right away lol

@annettefournier9655 5 лет назад

I was surprised when you said Ireland. I thought it was California, lol.Thanks Angela.

@reneeaubuchon6683 5 лет назад

I really appreciate this video and the paper suggestion. The Scoggy's Loose Dagger Striper is made from squirrel hair. Since I don't want to use any brushes that have involved any potential harm to animals, do you have a synthetic brush you could suggest instead? Thanks!

@reneeaubuchon6683 5 лет назад

@@angelfehr Thanks Angela. I think I will try a Princeton Series 4850 Aqua Elite Synthetic Kolinsky Dagger Striper......maybe that will get me somewhat in the zone!

@SueSterling 5 лет назад

Are you painting on dry paper? Has it been prewet?

@ssadvweld1 5 лет назад

Have you used that ceramic palette before and provided a link on where to purchase?

@cecilialofgren1396 5 лет назад

I missed the info on what paper you use in this video?

@anneramey3670 3 года назад

Anne no

@robot7759 3 года назад

Bold question: are you somewhat (partially) colour"blind"? I love your paintings and techniques, however, the choices you make kinda indicate a certain... unique vision? 😶

@FannaTurano 3 года назад

I'd say artistic license and Angela's profound love of color. Who says mountains have to be boring brown? She often times sees "inside" the hill to a color gifted to her exclusively at that moment.

@cecilialofgren1396 5 лет назад

Nope...sorry....got the info!🤪
