How To Mix & Paint Skin Tone With Watercolors: Chapter 1 - A Light Skin Tone

Hi everyone! I get asked a lot over on Instagram about how to paint skin, and in this video I'll show you not only how I build layers of watercolor with tonal values and glazing, but also how to find different hues for a light skin tone using basic color theory. This is the first part of a series about how to paint skin with more chapters to follow over the coming months that will focus on darker skin tones. I hope you enjoy the video!
