How To Paint a Lighthouse in Watercolor
In this video, you will learn how to paint a lighthouse in watercolor. I'll be using my new Meeden porcelain watercolor palette. You'll learn how to loosen up your watercolor style and create some exciting waves and movement. I'll go through how to easily paint wet in wet clouds, waves, and rocks to create a soft and atmospheric scene.
I also take the opportunity to demonstrate my new Meeden 17 well studio porcelain palette. I paid for this myself and was not paid to do this review/demo. There is a link below if you want to get one.
