r washOBJECT:
Learn to lay an even-toned flat watercolor wash.
In the beginning...
Draw a square or rectangle
on your paper, or visualize
the boundaries of such as you go. (wing it)
Select a darker hue for your wash
(it's easier to see)
and mix a liberal amount of medium intensity (30-50%
value) paint on your palette. I'm using a 1 ½" (381mm)
Winsor & Newton Series 965 flat wash brush and Holbein
Sap Green watercolor paint for this lesson. The paper is
Arches #140 CP.
Charge your brush with paint, and starting in the upperleft corner touch your brush to the paper and gently pull a
straight line of paint to the upper right corner.
NOTE:
If left handed work right to left!
Make your second stroke
Return to your palette and refill your brush.
Start the next stroke at the bottom of the first
stroke, being sure to overlap the bead of paint now
formed at the bottom of the first stroke.
TIP 1:
If the flood of the first stroke doesn't fully flow into
the new stroke, increase the angle of your board to aid the
flow of the wash.
TIP 2:
Increasing the angle of your work also increases
the chances of drips running wild down your paper. If they
annoy you, work faster or keep a tissue or damp sponge inyour free hand to quickly blot them away.
Repeat as necessary...
Refill brush and continue
overlapping strokes, riding the
flow of the paint and keeping an even tone as you go.
TIP 3:
You can use the flat edge of a wash brush to "cut"
the starting edge.
TIP 4:
If you want to square up the final edge of the
stroke—slow down, pull the brush up, and use the sharp
flat edge again. Pull it up to your line and "cut" the final
edge with a downward pull.
TIP 5:
If your stroke breaks up, load your brush and
repeat the stroke IMMEDIATELY. See (Tip 7) below!
Almost there, keep going!
Repeat steps making stroke after stroke to the
bottom
. Try to keep an even tone as you go.
TIP 6:
You would not believe how much variety there is in
the behavior of different brands and grades of paints and
papers. The more expensive well-known brands usually
make your work easier by offering consistent high quality.
TIP 7:
If your strokes break up and your brush is fully
charged, you are either using a rough textured paper or
the paper could be heavily sized. If you find heavily sized
paper like this, spray the paper, sponge it off with a clean
damp sponge and let it dry before use. The surface will
now be more receptive to your paint.
I've painted something!
Rinse your brush out in clean water and blot or
squeeze out the excess the water.
Carefully pick up the bead of paint that runs across the
bottom of the wash using the wick action of your brush. If
you draw up too much paint you will lift the color off the
paper.
Let the wash dry.
If you've ended up with an even-toned
square of color, congratulations! If not, try it again. I did.
And do.
TIP 8:
Try practicing your flat washes with different colors
and intensities. Each color has it's own physical properties
that affect how they feel and flow in washes.
TIP 9:
For a pronounced texture in your wash let it dry at
an angle. The pigment will settle out in the texture of the
paper.

OBJECT:
Learn to lay an graded-toned watercolor wash.
Preparing to wash
Draw a square or rectangle on your paper.
Select a darker hue for your wash
(it's easier to see)
and mix a liberal amount of medium intensity (30-50%
value) paint your brush. In a clean part of your palette mix
another
puddle at about half the intensity of the original
mixture.
MATERIALS USED:
I'm using a 1 ½" (381mm) Winsor &
Newton Series 965 flat wash brush and Winsor & Newton
Cobalt Blue watercolor paint for this lesson. The paper is
Arches #140 CP.
Charge your brush with paint
from the darker mix, and
starting in the upper left corner touch your brush to the
paper and gently pull a straight line of paint to the upper
right corner.
Light
Dab your brush on a sponge or paper towel
and refill
your brush with the lighter mixture.
Start your second stroke overlapping the bottom of
the previous stroke.
Notice that the left side of the stroke
has already
flowed together with the top stroke. Let gravity do it's
work.
Lighter
Rinse your brush and blot it
on a towel or damp
sponge, refill from the lighter mixture.
Make your next overlapping stroke.
Lightest
Rinse clean and dip your wet brush into the lighter
mixture
, further lightening the wash.
Lay your next overlapping stroke.
TIP 1:
If your stroke doesn't flow evenly or breaks up,
charge your brush and repeat the stroke IMMEDIATELY.
A clear finish
Rinse your brush well and using clear water
start
your last overlapping stroke.
Squeeze the water out of your brush
and pick up the
bead of paint at the bottom of the wash.
All Done.
Ask the paint settles and flows,
minor imperfections in
tone will usually smooth themselves out before they dry.
This example shows some graining
in the final wash.
Cobalt Blue is a coarser and heavier pigment that settles
into the texture of the paper.
TIP 2:
Try practicing your graded washes with different
colors and intensities. Each color has it's own physical
properties that affect how they feel and flow in washes.
TIP 3:
Practice transitioning one color into another for
interesting multi-color effects.
Perfecting a graded wash
may take a little more
practice than a flat wash, but any time painting is time
well spent.

utorialOBJECT:
Learn transparent watercolor glazing effects.
A little information
I will improvised a landscape on the fly to show the
principles of glazing watercolor washes.
MATERIALS:
Arches #140 CP watercolor paper,
Grumbacher 1" flat red sable, Kalish Kolinsky Red Sable
#8 round, Kolonok #4 flat Kolinsky red sable, Winsor &
Newton Series 820 #8 Round, and a Kolonok #4 round
Kolinsky red sable brush. A blow-dryer.
COLORS (various manufacture):Cadmium Yellow Light,Cadmium Yellow Medium, Cadmium Orange, Cadmium Red
Medium, Permanent Rose, Dioxazine Purple, Cobalt Blue,
Ultramarine Blue and Sap Green. Colors chosen are
transparent and semi-transparent.
Using my 1" flat red sable brush
I used a Cobalt Blue
wash to block in the sky, mountains, and river area. I
broke up the wash and added some clear water to soften
the area that would be a waterfall.
A mountain and red clouds
This lesson is designed to be
as obvious as possible.
Using bright transparent colors allows you to see how each
subsequent wash is affected by those washes lying under
it. Plus it allowed me to play with a new style of painting.
Using the same 1" brush
I mixed a transparent wash of
Permanent Rose and painted a band of red clouds across
the sky area.
Rinsing my brush I mixed up
a light wash of Cadmium
Yellow Light and started painted the mountain area. I
continued to the foreground and layed in a large yellow
underwash.
