Carl your tutorial must be the first I've seen that uses dark values before filling in the light. Most artists say that in watercolour one should work from light to dark. I like your style which is more like painting in oils.
Glad it was helpful! I do each painting as it seems to call. Often I begin with a light wash over everything that is not going to be white, then go to the dominant area and develop that. I have often started with the darkest area, or the area with the most contrast so that it is well established and I know how far not to go with the rest. I don't like formulas.
Not much money left in my budget in the midst of a pandemic so I am greedily lapping up every free item you offer. I still find time and money to paint though. I have learned so much from your books and videos. Thank you
