Hello and welcome. In this course, we’ll be painting two natural landscapes with a combination of watercolour and gouache. Gouache is an opaque watercolour which allows you to create stunning highlights. In this course, we’ll be using a variety of wet-in-wet techniques and wet-in-dry techniques in order to paint both scenes. We’ll go through my three step process of painting the light, shadows and finishing touches, which will allow you to paint any subject.
Planning is crucial. In this course, I’ll show you how to simplify shapes and sketch in large shapes such as sky, water, trees, grass and land. Getting those large components in accurately beforehand is essential for your painting to make sense.
Bonus Workshop Included! Paint a house and natural landscape scene together.

Assignment:
Your course project is to draw and paint your own watercolour landscape! This can be a scene featured in this course, or based on one of your own photographs or scenes you have observed outside.
You can also refer to the scanned drawing/painting templates attached below which will allow you to trace the drawing if you choose to do so. I recommend drawing each scene free hand. Drawing is an important step in improving your painting skills. This provides you with an opportunity to compose and plan your painting. Once you’ve finished the drawing, use the watercolor steps and processes included in the course demonstrations to complete your painting.
Materials:
Use any watercolour paints, pencil watercolour paper, and brushes you have available. I recommend:
0.5mm mechanical pencil
Artist grade watercolour paints – blue, yellow and red
100% cotton watercolour paper or sketchbook
Watercolour Brushes – mop brush and a variety of round brushes for detailing.
Getting Started:
Review the course demonstration videos first. You can also download the tracing templates to transfer over your drawing if you wish.
Looking to sketch and paint another scene? Research some free reference photo websites, pick one of your own reference photos, or simply find a outdoor location where you can sit and paint. Using the steps and processes included in this course, create your own unique painting.
Sharing Your Work:
Share your final painting and progress shots with the course by uploading them to the Q&A and discussion section on Udemy. If you have any questions or need more tips, please let me know. I’m happy to help.
