- Do's and Don'ts to help you avoid the pitfalls with watercolor eye paintings, by professional artist Paul Hopkinson.
In this video I share some of the most common mistakes that people make when they are painting eyes. To me the eye is the most important part of any painting and so getting it right is vitally important. From the right paints to the right angles let me show you lots of things to think about and to incorporate into your own watercolor paintings. Get your eye paintings looking realistic, like they really are sparkly and full of life.

just the answer i was looking for...how to avoid the cauliflower look, due to too much water in diluted paint. dip, scrape and roll...i wasn't rolling 🙂
Always remember to do a little roll Cathie, the brush though, not you. Paul 😁
I find your tutorials and advice brilliant Paul. I’m a complete beginner to painting and find the more detailed work more enjoyable, I find lose painting very hard. Will give this a try😀. thank you for sharing your expertise.
Great to hear Charlotte, you will find your own comfortable way of painting after a short while, one which will help you grow but also enjoy. Paul 🎨

Wow, thank you Marvin, that's very kind of you to say, glad you like the Cat's Eye video. Paul 🎨
Your work is excellent and your tips are fantastic!! Thank you!!
Thank you so much Greg! Paul 🎨
Very helpful tips 👍🏻
Glad it was helpful Chrissy, thank you.
Very informative video thanks. From watching your video, I have been able to paint a very realistic cat’s eye.
That's very kind of you to say, thank you, Paul :-)
This is way above my *beginner* level...I'm painting rabbits from my photographs but have trouble w/ frontal faces so do side angles. I have used oils long ago & sold a few painting then; now I like dry~fast paint like acrylics & watercolors & it is fun. Your *tips* are very helpful ... perhaps if I stay w/ it I may some day be able to do cat eyes & frontal faces. TY *Wildlife in Watercolors*
You can do it Miji, you know you can, especially with the painting experience you have, even though some of it was with oil paints. It's learning how to look and 'see' within a photo and transfer that to a sheet of paper. Keep going and keep those brushes wet, Paul 🎨
@@TheDevonArtist HAHA!!! TY
Do you use rake brush for fur
I have used one in the past Ravi, but I mostly use my home make rake brush. Check out the video on how this work and how to make your own. :-) bit.ly/3zmw6ez
