one WASH watercolors

- Working with a single wash in watercolours is not only a huge amount of fun, it also really plays to the free flowing and luminous nature of the medium.
In this little watercolour video I talk you through a recent painting I created using pretty much just a single wash in each area - with a few little finishing touches over the top.
I hope you enjoy it!
All my watercolour content has now been moved to my Online School of Watercolour

Another absolutely stunning painting! So much more interesting than the photo ❤️. I think you must have “magic hands”. Cheers 😊❤️😘💕🥰😍
Thanks so much, Joan. Very kind words indeed and much appreciated!!☺️🙌🏼🙏
Love this painting and techniques!
This type of workflow has to be my favourite, thank you for talking it through Tom! Also, you have such a beautiful style, love how you mix realism with your own expressiveness and vibrant colours 😁
Agreed, a super fun way to work! My pleasure, and thanks so much for the support and kind words..much appreciated! T
❤This is the best wc video I have ever seen.
Amazing. That face is so great. Thank you.
Ahh, thank you so much!!:) T
Genius . This style was what my
Mind assumed was the only techni❤que when in school. Terrified me. I wish I could do this . I will
Tom, thank you for a great demonstration. I can almost see the trumpet player moving. Nice, lively and loose.
My pleasure...thank you for a lovely comment!!:) T
Wonderful - so fesh looking. I really overwork and your style is a breath of fresh air.
Ahh, thank you so much! It so easy to over fuss watercolour...still plenty of times when I do!!:)
I used to love painting with watercolors as a teen, then I stopped, now I'm getting in my mid twenties and I got back to it, but I found out that i don't enjoy painting watercolor the way used to when i was younger, I was reeeeally into glazing, and adding layers and layers, now i want to paint quicker and more loosely . This is a lovely video and painting!
Ah yes, that’s interesting. As years have gone on I much prefer painting quicker and looser too. I used to be a lot more detailed and laboured :)...it’s a fun way to work!! Thanks for the support and great comment!! T
Wonderful demonstration. It really makes you realise how to approach watercolour without fear. Thanks Tom.
Great!!! 🤗
Thanks so much! T
Beautiful painting and description both of the process and philosophy. So glad that I found you. Thanks for taking the time to put this together.
A more than excellent demonstration. Thank you !
Thank you so much!! T
Thank you Tom

Reminds me a bit of the work of Eudes Correia. I mean that as a compliment.
Oh totally! Love Eudes’ work ...absolutely a compliment!!:)
Very nice! I've been painting watercolors for years - always as an amateur, just great to see your process So I can maybe move on a little bit…
Thank you for comment. Glad it helps!!:)

Loving this and I’ve learnt so much. Thank you! But can you tie your hair back please? 🤣🤣
Haha! Glad you enjoyed it and found it useful!!:)
Brilliant video. Thanks so much. Question….Tom, is this technique the ala prima way of painting? If not, can it be done in watercolor and if so, can you do a lesson about it sometime? Thanks. Cheers! 👍🏼🙂
Thanks Sue. Yes in some ways you could certainly call this alla prima painting, done "all at once", "on first attempt".
In my experience (and I may be wrong in terms of actual proper definitions) it is usually applied to oils in particular (i would say acrylics too), and is working in wet into wet oil paint, all done at once, one sitting, and characterised by a painterly feel, notable brush marks and looser and free use of thicker paint....as opposed to a multi-layered or slowly refined piece done in multiple sittings (usually with drying in between)....
That said, I have always felt, and said, that a huge amount of watercolour painting is by its very nature, "alla prima". Certainly most of my paintings, whilst layers are left to dry, are all done in a short time period, one sitting/all at once, and are characterised by lots of wet in wet work and painterly, "alla prima" style, brush marks.
As I say, I may be wrong relative to a literal definition. But this is my take on what it means. Certainly a great topic for a future video!!:)
