Hello Everyone! +This is Part 1 of 2 videos of a start-to-finish watercolor painting demonstration recorded in real-time. In this video, I cover composition, values, interpretation, design, formatting, drawing, sketching, and perspective, etc. +The main theme here of the dynamic contrast between the built environment and the natural world. Depicted is a Neo-Classical Temple from 1785 in Rome's Borghese Gardens, celebrating the Greek god of medicine and spirituality. Thanks for watching!
